Answer:
the answer is a because I saw it in a syllabus
Answer:
a) P = 807.85 N, b) P = 392.15 N, c) P = 444.12 N
Explanation:
For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.
Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight
sin θ = Wₓ / W
cos θ = W_y / W
Wₓ = W sin θ
W_y = W cos θ
Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N
W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N
Y axis
N- W_y = 0
N = W_y = 1039.23 N
Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement
a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static
P -Wₓ -fr = 0
P = Wₓ + fr
as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic
fr = μ N
fr = 0.20 1039.23
fr = 207.85 N
we substitute
P = 600+ 207.85
P = 807.85 N
b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static
P + fr -Wx = 0
fr = μ N
fr = 0.20 1039.23
fr = 207.85 N
we substitute
P = Wₓ -fr
P = 600 - 207,846
P = 392.15 N
c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic
P - Wₓ + fr = 0
P = Wₓ - fr
fr = 0.15 1039.23
fr = 155.88 N
P = 600 - 155.88
P = 444.12 N
The number 3252.6 has 5 significant figures
Answer:
p(a) * p(b) = .01923
p(b) = .01923 / .07692 = .2500
