Answer:

2.4\sqrt{L} where L is the length of the ramp

Explanation:

Let L (m) be the length of the ramp, and g = 9.81 m/s2 be the gravitational acceleration acting downward. This g vector can be split into 2 components: parallel and perpendicular to the ramp.

The parallel component would have a magnitude of

gsin\theta = 9.81 sin17^o = 2.87 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to find out the final velocity of the book after sliding L m:

v^2 - v_0^2 = 2a\Delta s

where v m/s is the final velocity, v_0 = 0m/s is the initial velocity when it starts from rest, a = 2.87 m/s2 is the acceleration, and \Delta s = L is the distance traveled:

v^2 - 0 = 2*2.87*L

v = \sqrt{5.74L} = 2.4\sqrt{L}

While a roofer is working on a roof that slants at 39.0 degrees above the horizontal, he accidentally nudges his 88.0 N toolbox,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

V= 6.974 m/s

Explanation:

Component( box) weight acting parallel and down roof 88(sin39.0°)=55.4 N

Force of kinetic friction acting parallel and up roof = 18.0 N

Fnet force acting on tool box acting parallel and down roof

Fnet= 55.4 - 18.0

Fnet=37.4 N

acceleration of tool box down roof

a = 37.4(9.81)/88.0

a= 4.169 m/s²

d = 4.90 m

t = √2d/a

t= √2(4.90)/4.169

t= 1.662 s

V = at

V= 4.169(1.662)

V= 6.974 m/s

When the weight of the object increase block what is the force of friction applied? Explanation?
erik [133]

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.

Answer it pls!!!!!!!!!!!
Archy [21]

Answer:

Fractional error = 0.17

Percent error = 17%

F = 112 ± 19 N

Explanation:

Plug in the values to find the force:

F = (3.5 kg) (20 m/s)² / (12.5 m) = 112 N

Find the fractional error:

ΔF/F = Δm/m + 2Δv/v + Δr/r

ΔF/F = 0.1/3.5 + 2(1/20) + 0.5/12.5

ΔF/F = 0.17

Multiply by 100% to find the percent error:

ΔF/F × 100% = 17%

Solve for the absolute error:

ΔF = 0.17 × 112 N = 19 N

Therefore, the force is:

F = 112 ± 19 N

Most ocean waves obtain their energy and motion from _____. the moon's gravitational attraction the sun plate movement the wind
IrinaVladis [17]
Hello!

Most ocean waves obtain their energy and motion from the wind.

Ocean waves are surface waves that move across the surface of the ocean. When wind touches the surface of the water, there is friction in the contact zone. This friction causes a drag effect, that makes wrinkles on the surface of the water. As the wrinkles get bigger, they transform into full-blown waves, and the taller the wave, the more energy it can extract from the wind, making them even bigger and to move longer distances. 

Have a nice day!
