Answer:

38.6 N

2.57 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the box.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

Friction force Nμ pushing left,

and applied force P pulling at an angle 40°.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + P sin 40° − mg = 0

N = mg − P sin 40°

The net force in the x direction is:

∑F = P cos 40° − Nμ

∑F = P cos 40° − (mg − P sin 40°) μ

∑F = P cos 40° − mgμ + Pμ sin 40°

∑F = P (cos 40° + μ sin 40°) − mgμ

Plugging in values:

∑F = (80 N) (cos 40° + 0.23 sin 40°) − (15 kg) (10 m/s²) (0.23)

∑F = 38.6 N

Net force equals mass times acceleration:

∑F = ma

38.6 N = (15 kg) a

a = 2.57 m/s²

An automobile rounds a curve of radius 50.0 m on a flat road.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

14m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the curve  = 50m

Centripetal acceleration  = 3.92m/s²

Unknown:

Speed needed to keep the car on the curve = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is the inwardly directly acceleration needed to keep a body along a curved path.

 It is given as;

      a = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

a is the centripetal acceleration

v is the speed

r is the radius

  Now insert the parameters and find v;

         v²   = ar

        v² = 3.92 x 50  = 196

         v  = √196 = 14m/s
