Answer:

Fgparallel =  170N

Explanation:

Acting down the incline would be the paralell force. The Force of gravity on an incline for the parallel portion is mgsinθ.

Fg parallel = mgsinθ

mg is 289.9, as that is the weight. θ is 35.9

Fgpar = 289.9sin35.9

Fgparallel =  170N

At t1 = 2.00 s, the acceleration of a particle in counterclockwise circular motion is 6.00 i + 4.00 j m/s2 . It moves at constan
Jet001 [13]

The particle moves with constant speed in a circular path, so its acceleration vector always points toward the circle's center.

At time t_1, the acceleration vector has direction \theta_1 such that

\tan\theta_1=\dfrac{4.00}{6.00}\implies\theta_1=33.7^\circ

which indicates the particle is situated at a point on the lower left half of the circle, while at time t_2 the acceleration has direction \theta_2 such that

\tan\theta_2=\dfrac{-6.00}{4.00}\implies\theta_2=-56.3^\circ

which indicates the particle lies on the upper left half of the circle.

Notice that \theta_1-\theta_2=90^\circ. That is, the measure of the major arc between the particle's positions at t_1 and t_2 is 270 degrees, which means that t_2-t_1 is the time it takes for the particle to traverse 3/4 of the circular path, or 3/4 its period.

Recall that

\|\vec a_{\rm rad}\|=\dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}

where R is the radius of the circle and T is the period. We have

t_2-t_1=(5.00-2.00)\,\mathrm s=3.00\,\mathrm s\implies T=\dfrac{3.00\,\rm s}{\frac34}=4.00\,\mathrm s

and the magnitude of the particle's acceleration toward the center of the circle is

\|\vec a_{\rm rad}\|=\sqrt{\left(6.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)^2+\left(4.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)^2}=7.21\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}

So we find that the path has a radius R of

7.21\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}=\dfrac{4\pi^2R}{(4.00\,\mathrm s)^2}\implies\boxed{R=2.92\,\mathrm m}

What does the force of friction between two objects in context depend on?
xenn [34]

The amount of friction depends on the force pushing the surfaces together. If this force increases, the hills and valleys of the surfaces can come into closer contact. The close contact increases the friction between the surfaces.
