At a playground, a child slides down a slide that makes a 42° angle with the horizontal direction. The coefficient of kinetic fr

kumpel [21]

Answer:

$a = 5.1\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given,

The angle of the slide= $42^\circ$

The mass of the child is= m

coefficient of friction = 0.20

when she slides down now apply Newton's law

$ma =mg \sin\theta - f$

$ma = mg\sin \theta -\mu mg \cos \theta$

therefore the acceleration

$a=g \sin\theta -\mu gcos\theta$

$a=g[\sin \theta -\mu \cos \theta]$

$a=9.8\times [\sin 42^\circ -0.2\times \cos 42^\circ]$

$a = 5.1\ m/s^2$

hence, the magnitude of acceleration during her sliding is equal to $a = 5.1\ m/s^2$

kupik [55]

Answer:

therefore critical angle c= 69.79°

Explanation:

Canola oil is less dense than water, so it floats over water.

Given $n_{canola}= 1.47$

which is higher than that of water

refractive index of water $n_{water}=1.33$

to calculate critical angle of light going from the oil into water

we know that

$sinc= \frac{n_{water}}{n_{canola}}$

now putting values we get

$sinc= \frac{1.33}{1.47}$

c= $sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.47} )$

c=69.79°

therefore critical angle c= 69.79°
