A 50 Kg box sits at rest on a 30 degree ramp where the coef of static friction is 0.5773. If your push was directed at an angle

of 40 degrees to the ramp, how hard would you have to push to get the box to move up the ramp?

<u>Given data:</u>

m= 50 Kg,

W= m×g = 50 × 9.81 = 490.5 N

ramp angle (α) = 30 degrees,

coefficient of friction (μs) = 0.5773,

Push at an angle (Θ) = 40 degrees,

Determine: Push to get box move up (P)=?

From the figure,

Resolving the forces along the plane

W sinα + μs.R = P cos Θ       --------------------- (i)

Resolving the forces perpendicular to the inclined plane

W cosα = R+Psin Θ  =>  R= W cosα - Psin Θ -------------- (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii) and keeping <em>μs = tan Φ, Φ = Θ </em>

<em>Pmin = W sin( α +Θ  )</em>

<em>          = W[ sin α.Cos Θ + cos α.sin Θ]</em>

<em>           = 490.5 [ (sin 30.cos40) + (cos30.sin 40)]</em>

<em>           = 460.9 N</em>

<em>Minimum push required to move the box up the ramp is 460.9 N</em>

Geosynchronous satellites orbit the Earth at a distance of 42 000 km from the Earth's center. Their angular speed at this height
frozen [14]

Answer:

Force will be 7.97 N

Explanation:

We have given that earth is at s distance of 42000 km from the earth center

So r = 42000 km = 42000000 m

Mass m = 1500 kg

Angular velocity of earth \omega =7.29\times 10^{-5}rad/sec

We have to find the force

We know that force is given by

F=m\omega ^2r=1500\times (7.29\times 10^{-5})^2\times 42000000=797.1615\times 10^{-2}=7.97N

When passing from a low index of refraction medium to a high index of refraction medium which way does the refracted ray bend: t
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

toward the normal

Explanation:

Light travels at different speed in different mediums.

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

Light travels at a slower speed in water as compared to air because there are more number of interfering molecules in the path of the light in case of water as compared to liquid.  

When a light travels from lower denser medium say water to higher denser medium say water, it bends towards the perpendicular (normal) as its speed reduces in that medium.
