P-weight blocks D and E are connected by the rope which passes through pulley B and are supported by the isorectangular prism ar

ticulated to the ground at its vertex A, while vertex C is attached to the vertical cord fixed to the ground. If the coefficient of friction between the prism and the blocks is 0.4; determine the maximum angle that measures the inclination of the AC face with respect to the horizontal so that the system remains in equilibrium.

Answer:

21.8°

Explanation:

Let's call θ the angle between BC and the horizontal.

Draw a free body diagram for each block.

There are 4 forces acting on block D:

Weight force P pulling down,

Normal force N₁ pushing perpendicular to AB,

Friction force N₁μ pushing parallel up AB,

and tension force T pushing parallel up AB.

There are 4 forces acting on block E:

Weight force P pulling down,

Normal force N₂ pushing perpendicular to BC,

Friction force N₂μ pushing parallel to BC,

and tension force T pulling parallel to BC.

Sum of forces on D in the perpendicular direction:

∑F = ma

N₁ − P sin θ = 0

N₁ = P sin θ

Sum of forces on D in the parallel direction:

∑F = ma

T + N₁μ − P cos θ = 0

T = P cos θ − N₁μ

T = P cos θ − P sin θ μ

T = P (cos θ − sin θ μ)

Sum of forces on E in the perpendicular direction:

∑F = ma

N₂ − P cos θ = 0

N₂ = P cos θ

Sum of forces on E in the parallel direction:

∑F = ma

N₂μ + P sin θ − T = 0

T = N₂μ + P sin θ

T = P cos θ μ + P sin θ

T = P (cos θ μ + sin θ)

Set equal:

P (cos θ − sin θ μ) = P (cos θ μ + sin θ)

cos θ − sin θ μ = cos θ μ + sin θ

1 − tan θ μ = μ + tan θ

1 − μ = tan θ μ + tan θ

1 − μ = tan θ (μ + 1)

tan θ = (1 − μ) / (1 + μ)

Plug in values:

tan θ = (1 − 0.4) / (1 + 0.4)

θ = 23.2°

∠BCA = 45°, so the angle of AC relative to the horizontal is 45° − 23.2° = 21.8°.

Which type of radiation can reach the furthest?<br> A. Beta<br><br> B. Gamma<br><br> C. Alpha
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

C. Alpha

Explanation:

Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.

HELP!!! 30 POINTS+BRAINLIEST!!!!!QUICK!!
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A:7.2ms^{-1}

B:14.25ms^{-1}

C:1.45sec

D:10.3m

E:2.9sec

F:20.88m

Explanation:

Let v be the velocity and \alpha be the angle between the velocity and ground.

Question A:

Horizontal component of velocity is given by vcos(\alpha ).

So,horizontal component is 16\times cos(63)=16\times 0.45=7.2ms^{-1}

Question B:

Vertical component of velocity is given by vsin(\alpha ).

So,vertical component is 16\times sin(63)=16\times 0.89=14.25ms^{-1}

Question C:

Time required is given by \frac{\text{vertical component of velocity}}{g}}=\frac{14.25}{9.8}=1.45 seconds

Question D:

Maximum height is given by \frac{\text{vertical component of velocity}^{2}}{2g}}=\frac{203.06}{19.6}=10.3m

Question E:

Time of flight is twice the time required to reach maximum height=2\times 1.45=2.9 seconds.

Question F:

The distance between the player and ball after landing is called range and is given by \text{horizontal component of velocity}\times \text{time of flight}=7.2\times 2.9=20.88m
