A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall, and both ends of the ladder are at the point of slipping. The coefficient of fricti

on between the ladder and the horizontal surface is μ1 = 0.265 and the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the wall is μ2 = 0.253. Determine the maximum angle with the vertical the ladder can make without falling on the ground.

Answer:

\alpha =29.60

Explanation:

Let the normal force of the wall on the ladder be N2 and the normal force of the ground on the ladder be N1.

Horizontal forces:

N_{2}= (u1)(N_{1}) [1]

Vertical forces:

N_1 + (u2)(N_{2})=m*g [2]

Substitute [2] into [1]:

N_2 = (u1)*[m*g - (u2)(N_2)]

N_2= \frac{(u1)m*g}{[1 + (u1)(u2)]} [3]

Torques about the point where the ladder meets the ground:

m*g(\frac{L}{2})sin\alpha= (N_2)(L)cos\alpha+(u2)(N_2)(L)sin\alpha

(\frac{1}{2})*m*g=(N_2)*cot\alpha+(u2)(N_2)

[1 + (u1)(u2) - 2(u2)(u1)]/2 [1 + (u1)(u2)]= [(u1)/[1 + (u1)(u2)]]cot\alpha

tanα = \frac{2*(u1)}{1-u1*u2}

\alpha =tan^{-1}*(\frac{2*0.265}{1-0.265*0.253})

\alpha =tan^{-1}*(0.568)

\alpha =29.60

a block of wood has a length of 4 cm a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm what is the volume of the wood
geniusboy [140]

Volume= Length X width X height.

Plug in the values for each and solve for the volume.

V= (L)(W)(H)

V=(4cm)(5cm)(10cm).

7. A toy car of mass 1.2 kg is driving vertical circles inside a hollow cylinder of radius 2.0m. It is moving at a constant spee
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a)

N_{top}=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=33.4N

b) v_{min}=4.4m/s

Explanation:

The net force on the car must produce the centripetal acceleration necessary to make this circle, which is a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{R}. At the top of the circle, the normal force and the weight point downwards (like the centripetal force should), while at the bottom the normal force points upwards (like the centripetal force should) and the weight downwards, so we have (taking the upwards direction as positive):

-m\frac{v^2}{R}=-N_{top}-mg\\m\frac{v^2}{R}=N_{bottom}-mg

Which means:

N_{top}=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}-(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=m\frac{v^2}{R}+mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}+(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=33.4N

The limit for falling off would be N_{top}=0, so the minimum speed would be:

0=m\frac{v_{min}^2}{R}-mg\\v_{min}=\sqrt{Rg}=\sqrt{(2m)(9.8m/s^2)}=4.4m/s

A 0.15 kg baseball is hit by a baseball bat. Right before it is hit, the ball’s speed is 30 m/s, and right after it is hit, the
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Impulse will be 12 kgm/sec

So option (b) will be correct option

Explanation:

We have given mass of the baseball m = 0.15 kg

Ball speed before hit v_1=30m/sec

Ball speed after hitting  v_2=-50m/sec ( negative direction due to opposite direction )

We have to find the impulse

We know that impulse is equal; to the change in momentum

So change in momentum = m(v_1-v_2)=0.15(30-(-50))=0.15\times 80=12kgm/sec

So option (b) will be correct option
