A 4 kg car with frictionless wheels is on a ramp that makes a 25° angle with the horizontal. The car is connected to a 1 kg mass
by a string that passes over a frictionless pulley.
What is the acceleration of the car?
What is the acceleration of the car?
1 answer:
Refer to the diagram shown below.
W₁ = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N
W₂ = (1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 9.8 N
The normal reaction on the 4-kg mass is
N = (39.2 N)*cos(25°) = 35.5273 N
The force acting down the inclined plane due to the weight is
F = (39.2 N)*sin(25°) = 16.5666 N
The net force that accelerates the 4-kg mass at a m/²s down the plane is
F - W₂ = (4 kg)*(a m/s²)
4a = 16.5666 - 9.8
a = 1.6917 m/s²
Answer: 1.69 m/s² (nearest hundredth)
