Given
hypotenuse is 36
base is 24
Procedure
Cos function (or cosine function) in a triangle is the ratio of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse. The cosine function is one of the three main primary trigonometric functions and it is itself the complement of sine(co+sine).
The answer would be 48 degrees
Answer:
a = 3.27 m/s²
F = 32.7 N
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram. There are three forces:
Weight force mg pulling straight down.
Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the slope.
Friction force F pushing parallel up the slope.
Sum of forces in the parallel direction:
∑F = ma
mg sin θ − F = ma
Sum of torques about the cylinder's axis:
∑τ = Iα
Fr = ½ mr²α
F = ½ mrα
Since the cylinder rolls without slipping, a = αr. Substituting:
F = ½ ma
Two equations, two unknowns (a and F). Substituting the second equation into the first:
mg sin θ − ½ ma = ma
Multiply both sides by 2/m:
2g sin θ − a = 2a
Solve for a:
2g sin θ = 3a
a = ⅔ g sin θ
a = ⅔ (9.8 m/s²) (sin 30°)
a = 3.27 m/s²
Solving for F:
F = ½ ma
F = ½ (20 kg) (3.27 m/s²)
F = 32.7 N
