A 675-pound trailer is sitting on an exit ramp inclined at 40o on Highway 35. How much vertical force is required to keep the tr

Answer:

433.88 lbs

Explanation:

We are given that mass of trailer =675 pound

Angle=40^{\circ}

We have to find the vertical force required to keep the trailer from rolling back down the exit ramp.

The force required to keep  the trailer from rolling back down the exit ramp=wsin\theta

Where w=675 pounds and \theta=40^{\circ}

Substitute the values then we get

F=675 sin40^{\circ}

sin40^{\circ}=0.642787

Substitute the value then we get

F=675\times 0.642787=433.88 lbs

Hence, the force required to keep the trailer from rolling back down the exits ramp=433.88 lbs

You drag a suitcase of mass 8.2 kg with a force of f at an angle 41.9 ◦ with respect to the horizontal along a surface with kine
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

35.6 N

Explanation:

We can consider only the forces acting along the horizontal direction to solve the problem.

There are two forces acting along the horizontal direction:

- The horizontal component of the pushing force, which is given by

F_x = F cos \theta

with \theta=41.9^{\circ}

- The frictional force, whose magnitude is

F_f = \mu mg

where \mu=0.33, m=8.2 kg and g=9.8 m/s^2.

The two forces have opposite directions (because the frictional force is always opposite to the motion), and their resultant must be zero, because the suitcase is moving with constant velocity (which means acceleration equals zero, so according to Newton's second law: F=ma, the net force is zero). So we can write:

F_x - F_f=0\\F_x = F_f\\F cos \theta = \mu mg\\F=\frac{\mu mg}{cos \theta}=\frac{(0.33)(8.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}{cos(41.9^{\circ})}=35.6 N

A player kicks a soccer ball from ground level and sends it flying at an angle of 30 degrees at a speed of 26 m/s. What is the h
dybincka [34]

Given,

A player kicks a soccer hits at an angle of 30° at a speed of 26 m/s

We can resolute the trajectory of soccer into horizontal and vertical components.(Please see the attached file)

We can have,

Horizontal velocity component of ball= 26cos(30°)  = 26×(√3÷2) = 22.51 m/s

And vertical velocity component of ball = 26sin(26°) = 26×(1÷2) = 13 m/s
