Given Information:  

Inclined plane length = 8 m

Inclined plane height = 2 m

Weight of ice block = 300 N

Required Information:  

Force required to push ice block = F = ?  

Answer:  

Force required to push ice block =  75 N

Explanation:  

The force required to push this block of ice on a inclined plane is given by

F = Wsinθ

Where W is the weight of the ice block and θ is the angle as shown in the attached image.

Recall from trigonometry ratios,

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse

Where opposite is height of the inclined plane and hypotenuse in the length of the inclined plane.

sinθ = 2/8

θ = sin⁻¹(2/8)

θ = 14.48°

F = 300*sin(14.48)

F = 75 N

Therefore, a force of 75 N is required to push this ice block on the given inclined plane.

nignag [31]

Answer:

a = 2d / t²

Explanation:

d = ½ at²

Multiply both sides by 2:

2d = at²

Divide both sides by t²:

a = 2d / t²

What is the definition of input force?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The input force (effort) is the amount of effort used to push down on a rod, or pull on a rope in order to move the weight. In this example, the force the little guy is using to pull the elephant is the input force.

It is rate for any motion to
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

a. stay the same for very long

Explanation:

It is rare for any motion to stay the same for a very long time. The force applied on a body causes changes in the magnitude of motion.

  • For motion to remain constant, there must not be a net force acting on the body
  • All the forces on the body must be balanced.
  • This is very hard to come by.
  • Motion changes very frequently.

If five joules were required to move a crate in 3.7 seconds, what power was applied?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1.35 Watts

Explanation:

Data

Work = W = 5 J

time = t = 3.7 s

Power = P = ?

Formula

Power is a rate in which work is done or energy is transferred over time

P = \frac{W}{t}

Substitution

P = \frac{5}{3.7}

Result

P = 1.35 W

A 4kg block sitting on the floor, how much potential energy does it have?
prohojiy [21]

Well, there you have a very important principle wrapped up in that question.

There's actually no such thing as a real, actual amount of potential energy.
There's only potential <em><u>relative to some place</u></em>.  It's the work you have to do
to lift the object from that reference place to wherever it is now.  It's also
the kinetic energy the object would have if it fell down to the reference place
from where it is now.

Here's the formula for potential energy:    PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em><u>height</u></em><u>)</u> .

So naturally, when you use that formula, you need to decide "height above what ?"

If you're reading a book while you're flying in a passenger jet, the book's PE is
(M x G x 0 meters) relative to your lap, (M x G x 1 meter) relative to the floor of the
plane, (M x G x 10,000 meters) relative to the ground, and maybe (M x G x 25,000 meters)
relative to the bottom of the ocean.

Let's say that gravity is 9.8 m/s² .

Then a 4kg block sitting on the floor has (39.2 x 0 meters) PE relative to the floor
it's sitting on, also (39.2 x 3 meters) relative to the floor that's one floor downstairs,
also (39.2 x 30 meters) relative to 10 floors downstairs, and if it's on the top floor of
the Amoco/Aon Center in Chicago, maybe (39.2 x 345 meters) relative to the floor
in the coffee shop that's off the lobby on the ground floor.
