When a 40N force, parallel to and directed up the incline, is applied to a block on a frictionless incline that is 30o above the

horizontal, the acceleration of the block is 2.0 m/s2, up the incline. Find the mass of the block.

Answer:

5.8 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

Force,F=40 N

\theta=30^{\circ}

Acceleration,a=2 m/s^2

We have to find the mass of block.

F_{net}=ma

F-mgsin\theta=ma

F=mgsin\theta+ma=m(gsin\theta+a)

40=m(9.8sin30+2)

Where

g=9.8m/s^2

40=6.9m

m=\frac{40}{6.9}=5.8 kg

Answer:

m=5.797\ kg

Explanation:

GIVEN:

applied force up the inclined plane, F=40\ N

angle of the plank from the horizontal, \theta=30^{\circ}

acceleration of the body up the plane, a=2\ m.s^{-2}

Now from the  schematic we balance the forces:

F-mg\sin\theta=m.a

F=m(g\sin\theta +a)

40=m(9.8\times0.5+2)

m=5.797\ kg

A pebble is dropped from rest from the top of a tall cliff and falls 53.4 m after 3.3 s has elapsed. How much farther does it dr
jeka94

Answer:

426.84 m

Explanation:

initial velocity u = 0

time t = 3.3 s

distance travelled s = 53.4 m

acceleration due to gravity = g

s = ut + 1/2 g t²

53.4 = 0 + 1/2 g x 3.3²

g = 9.8 m /s²

For the whole length of fall

distance travelled = h

total time = 6.6 + 3.3 = 9.9 s

h = ut + 1/2 g t²

u again = 0

h = .5 x 9.8 x 9.9²

= 480.24 m

distance travelled in last 6.6 s

= 480.24 - 53.4

= 426.84 m

A cheetah can run at approximately 100 km/hr and a gazelle at 80 km/hr. If both animals are running at full speed, with a gazell
zimovet [89]
The cheetah's speed is 100x and The gazelle's speed is 80x + 70. Set the two equations equal to each other: 100x = 80x +70 (then subtract 80x from both sides). 20x = 70 (then divide by 20). X =3.5. The cheetah catches the gazelle after 3.5
