Answer:
3.90 degrees
Explanation:
Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is
W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N
This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.
We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up
F = WsinΘ
Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N
F = 20
So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees
The gravitational force on the woman is A) 500 N
Explanation:
There are two forces acting on the woman during her fall:
According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the woman is equal to the product between the woman's mass and her acceleration:
where m is the mass of the woman and a her acceleration.
The net force can be written as
Also, we know that the woman falls at a constant velocity (5 m/s), this means that her acceleration is zero:
Combining the equations together, we get:
which means that the magnitude of the gravitational force is equal to the magnitude of the air resistance:
