In a force diagram set-up, we name the angle of inclination theta, g as the acceleration due to gravity. In this case, the forces acting on the box going down is the weight itself impeded by the friction between the box and the inclined plane.

The weight of the box is expressed as mg sin theta
The frictional force is expressed as the normal force times the coefficient of friction that is expressed as mu g cos theta.

By Newton's second law of motion,  F = ma = mg sin theta - mu g cos theta
Thus, a = g (sin theta - u cos theta

Experts, ACE, Genius... can anybody calculate for the Reactions at supports A and B please? Will give brainliest! Given: fb = 30
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Support at Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

Support at Ay = 200 k-N

Explanation:

given:

fb = 300 k-N/m

fc = 100 k-N/m

D = 300 k-N

L ab = 6 m

L bc = 6 m

L cd = 6 m

To get the reaction A or C.

take summation of moment either A or C.

<em><u>Support Cy:</u></em>

∑ M at Ay = 0

      (( x1 * F ) + ( D * Lab ) + ( D * L bc + D * L cd )

Cy = -------------------------------------------------------------------

                                      ( L ab + L bc )

Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

<em><u>Support Ay:</u></em>

Since ∑ F = 0,           A + C - F - D = 0

                                   A = F  + D - C

                                  Ay = 200 k-N

maria [59]

Answer:

\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m

Explanation:

Give that,

The potential difference of the electrons, V=8\times 10^{3}\ V

We need to find the wavelength of the electrons.

Using the conservation of energy,

2meV=\dfrac{h^2}{\lambda^2}\\\\\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{h^2}{2meV}}

Put all the values,

\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{(6.63\times 10^{-34})^2}{2\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 8\times 10^3}}\\\\\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m

So, the wavelength of the electrons is 1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m.

The MAC is 58 inches, The CG limits are from 26% to 43% MAC. If the CG is found to be
eimsori [14]

By working with percentages, we want to see how many inches is the center of gravity out of the limits. We will find that the CG is 1.45 inches out of limits.

<h3>What are the limits?</h3>

First, we need to find the limits.

We know that the MAC is 58 inches, and the limits are from 26% to 43% MAC.

So if 58 in is the 100%, the 26% and 43% of that are:

  • 26% → (26%/100%)*58in = 0.26*58 in = 15.08 in
  • 43% → (43%/100%)*58in = 0.43*58 in = 24.94 in.

But we know that the CG is found to be 45.5% MAC, then it measures:

(45.5%/100%)*58in = 0.455*58in = 26.39 in

We need to compare it with the largest limit, so we get:

26.39 in - 24.94 in = 1.45 in

This means that the CG is 1.45 inches out of limits.

How could two waves on a rope interfere so the rope does not move at all?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

If a crest formed by one wave interferes with a trough formed by the other wave then the rope will not move at all.

Explanation:

Assume a straight rope tied to both ends is at rest. When a wave is created at one end of the rope, it travels to the other end of the rope through formation of alternative crest and trough. Due to these crest and trough the rope shifts up and down.

But when there are two waves travelling through the rope and both have opposite direction (directed towards one another) in such a way that crest formed by one wave is interfering with the trough formed by the other wave then due to this interference the waves will cancel the effects of each other on the rope and rope will be stable.
