A box with a mass of 70 kg sits on a slope of 40 degrees. you are tasked with pushing the box up the slope. the static (stationa

ry) coefficient of friction between the box and the slope is 0.55, and the kinematic (while moving) coefficient of friction is 0.35.
a. what is the minimum force required to keep the box from slipping?
b. what is the minimum force required to begin pushing the box up the slope?
c. what is the minimum force required to maintain the box moving up the slope?
d. what is the force required to accelerate the box up the slope at 0.65 m/s2 once it is already moving upwards? give your answers in newtons (n).

PART a)

Force of friction on the box is given by formula

F_f = \mu mg cos\theta

F_f = 0.55 * 70 * 9.8 * cos40

F_f = 289 N

now the component of weight along the inclined

F_g = mgsin40

F_g = 70*9.8 * sin40

F_g = 441 N

now by force balance the force required to hold the block

F_{net} = F_g - F_f

F_{net} = 441 - 289 = 152 N

Part b)

to slide the block upwards the friction force will be upwards along the plane

F = F_g + F_f

F = 441 + 289 = 730 N

Part c)

Kinetic friction on the block is given by

F_k = \mu_k mg cos\theta

F_k = 0.35 * 70 * 9.8 * cos40

F_k = 184 N

now in order to move it up

F = F_g + F_k

F = 441 + 184

F = 625 N

Part d)

now to accelerate upwards by 0.65 m/s^2 we can use

F - F_g - F_k = ma

F - 441 - 184 = 70* 0.65

F = 670.5 N

A ray in oil (n = 1.52) reaches a boundary with water (n = 1.33) at 55.9 deg. Does it reflect internally or refract into the air
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Ray reflects internally

Explanation:

Given:

Ray in oil (n1) = 1.52

Ray in water (n2) = 1.33

θ = 55.9°

Computation:

Step 1 . Find critical angel(θc)

Sinθc/Sin90° = Ray in water / Ray in oil

Sinθc/1 = 1.33/1.52

θc = 61°

Since, θ = 55.9° is smaller than θc = 61°

So, Ray reflects internally.

Below is a metabolic pathway having 3 chemical reactions and 3 enzymes. Enzyme 1 has 2 binding sites--1 for the substrate A and
ch4aika [34]

Answer:   The correct answer is :  A, B, C, D.  All statements are correct.

Explanation:  This case is called non-competitive inhibition. As a result of the inhibition of the enzyme, there will eventually be less substrate that becomes the final product and this route will be closed. Enzyme 1 has two binding sites.

Answer: the ballon will explode.

Explanation:

The air in the ballon will increase its temperature and, according to the laws of behavior of the gases, it will expand until it explode.

You can assume ideal gas behavior and  use PV = nRT, where you can see that the volume V and P are proportional to the temperature T, so with the increase in temperature the ballon will increase its volume, until the material of the ballon can not expand more, when the pressure will increase and the material will fail.

Two forces, F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec and F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec, act at a point. F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec has a magnitude of 9.20 NN and is directed at an a
marishachu [46]

Answer:

-9.46 N

Explanation:

In order to get the value of the x component of the resultant force, we need to get the value of the x component of each force.

This value will be the projection of the force vector, on the x-axis.

For F₁, as it is directed at an angle of 55.0º above the negative x axis, we can find F₁ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:

cos θ = \frac{x}{r}

In this case, x = F₁ₓ, and r = F₁

θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:

θ= 180º-55º = 125º

⇒ F₁ₓ = F₁* cosθ = 9.2 N * cos 125º = -5.28 N

We can repeat the process for F₂, as follows:

For F₂, as it is directed at an angle of 53.3º below the negative x axis, we can find F₂ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:

cos θ = \frac{x}{r}

In this case, x = F₂ₓ, and r = F₂

θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:

θ= 180º + 53.3º = 233.3º

⇒ F₂ₓ = F₂* cosθ = 7.00 N * cos 233.3º = -4.18 N

The total component of both forces along the x axis, can be found just adding both components, as follows:

Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ = -5.28 N + -4.18 N = -9.46 N
