A 562 N trunk is on frictionless plane inclined at 30.0 degrees from the horizontal. What is the acceleration of the trunk down
Len [333]

Answer: 0m/s²

Explanation:

Since the forces acting along the plane are frictional force(Ff) and moving force(Fm), we will take the sum of the forces along the plane

According newton's law of motion

Summation of forces along the plane = mass × acceleration

Frictional force is always acting upwards the plane since the body will always tends to slide downwards on an inclined plane and the moving acts down the plane

Ff = nR where

n is coefficient of friction = tan(theta)

R is normal reaction = Wcos(theta)

Fm = Wsin(theta)

Substituting in the formula of newton's first law we have;

Fm-Ff = ma

Wsin(theta) - nR = ma

Wsin(theta) - n(Wcos(theta)) = ma... 1

Given

W = 562N, theta = 30°, n = tan30°, m = 56.2kg

Substituting in eqn 1,

562sin30° - tan30°(562cos30°) = 56.2a

281 - 281 = 56.2a

0 = 56.2a

a = 0m/s²

This shows that the trunk is not accelerating

Armand hands the rock to Pierre, who is standing next to the trampoline. Explain how Armand moves, in terms of the forces acting
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Armando's weight ,restored force created by the trampoline

a harmonic movement within the trampoline

Explanation:

In a trampoline we have two forces that actuate Armando's weight and the restored force created by the trampoline that depends on the deformation distance of the elastic canvas.

Amando's weight is vertical and directed towards the center of the Earth and has a constant value, this weight is balanced with the elastic force the springboard exerts on Armando in a vertical direction.

In general, when entering the trampoline, a small jump is made, this creates a speed that deforms the canvas until the speed is reduced to zero, at this point the elastic force is greater than the weight and the boy begins to climb, After the boy leaves the canvas he meets only the force of gravity and his speed decreases to zero and begins his fall.

In Summary Armando is in a harmonic movement within the trampoline

If the current in each wire is the same, which wire produces the strongest magnetic field?
lions [1.4K]

Answer: option 4: A wire that is 2-mm thick and coiled.

Explanation:

The current in each wire is same. The magnetic field due to a current carrying wire increases if the wire is coiled with the more number of turns. A thick wire would cause low resistance to the current. Hence, a 2-mm thick wire which is coiled would produce the strongest magnetic field.
