Two forces F1 and F2 of equal magnitude are applied to a brick of mass 20kg lying on the floor as shown in the figure above. If

the coefficient of static friction between the brick and the floor is 0.4, what is the minimum value of F required to start the brick to move?

Let F_{1}=F_{2}=F.

Normal force equals (using Newton's third law) N=mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}.

F_{f}\leq \mu N = \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), but F_{f}\leq F(\cos30^o+\cos37^o) for all F_{f} (in order to start moving the break). Therefore F(\cos 30^o+\cos37^o)\geq \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), solving for F: F\geq \frac{\mu mg}{\cos30^o+\cos37^o-\mu\sin30^o+\mu\sin37^o}\approx 46,91\; \textbf{N}

ou have just moved into a new apartment and are trying to arrange your bedroom. You would like to move your dresser of weight 3,
Dimas [21]

So far, since you moved into the apartment until the end of this much of the story, you haven't done ANY work on the dresser yet.

I'll admit that you pushed, groaned and grunted, sweated and strained plenty.  You're physically and mentally exhausted, you're not interested in the dresser at the moment, and right now you just want to snappa cappa brew, crash on the couch, and watch cartoons on TV.  But if you've done your Physics homework, you know you haven't technically done any <u><em>work</em></u> yet.

In Physics, "Work" is the product of Force times Distance.

Since the dresser hasn't budged yet, the Distahce is zero.  So no matter how great the Force may be, it's multiplied by zero, so the <em>Work is zero</em>.

A 2.8 kg grinding wheel is in the form of a solid cylinder of radius 0.1 m. a) What constant torque will bring it from rest to a
kogti [31]

Answer:

a) τ =  0.672 N m , b) θ = 150 rad , c) W = 100.8 J

Explanation:

a) for this part let's start by finding angular acceleration, when the angular velocity stops it is zero (w = 0)

       w = w₀ + α t

       α = -w₀ / t

       α = 120 / 2.5

       α = 48 rad / s²

The moment of inertia of a cylinder is

       I = ½ M R²

Let's calculate the torque

      τ = I α

      τ = ½ M R² α

      τ = ½ 2.8 0.1² 48

      τ =  0.672 N m

b) we look for the angle by kinematics

      θ = w₀ t + ½ α t2

      θ = ½ α t²

      θ = ½ 48 2.5²

      θ = 150 rad

c) work in angular movement

      W = τ θ

      W = 0.672 150

      W = 100.8 J
