You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle

AlekseyPX

Answer:

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

$- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

here we know that

$F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta$

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

$s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}$

now we have

$- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

so we have

$v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}$

An automobile with an initial speed of 5.13 m/s accelerates uniformly at the rate of 3.0 m/s2. Find the final speed of the car a

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Final velocity v=19.83 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity u =5.13 m/sexc

Acceleration of automobile $a=3m/sec^2$

Time t =4.9 sec

We have to find the final velocity v

According to first law of motion v = u+at ,here v is the final velocity , a is acceleration and t is time

So $v=5.13+3\times 4.9=19.83m/sec$

So the final velocity is 19.83 m/sec
