A box is sitting on a 2 m long board at one end. A worker picks up the board at the end with the box so it makes an angle with t

he ground of 35o. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the board is 0.5 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.3 . A) Will the box slide down the ramp when it is at 35o? Prove it! B) How long will it take the box to slide to the other end of the ramp? (if it slides)

Answer:

Explanation:

When the box is on the ramp , component of its weight along the ramp

= mg sinθ

Friction force acting on it in upward direction

=μ mg cosθ

For sliding

μ mg cosθ < mg sinθ

μ cosθ < sinθ

.5 x cos35 < sin35

.41 < .57

So the box will slide

When sliding starts , kinetic friction acts

Net force in downward direction

mgsinθ - μ mg cosθ

acceleration

= gsinθ - μ g cosθ

= 5.62 - .3 x 9.8 x cos35

= 5.62 - 2.4

= 3.22 m /s²

A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is
avanturin [10]

Answer: 22.6 hours

Explanation:

The power is the measure of the rate of energy.

In this problem, the 12.0 V battery is rated at 51.0 Ah, which means it delivers 51.0 A of current in a time of t = 1 h = 3600 s. The power delivered by the battery can be written as

P=IV

where

I is the current

V = 12.0 V is the voltage of the battery

So the energy delivered by the battery can be written as

E=Pt=VIt

Where

It=51.0 A\cdot h = 51.0 A \cdot 3600 s/h=183,600 A\cdot s

So the energy delivered is

E=(12.0)(183,600)=2.2\cdot 10^6 J

At the same time, the headlight consumes 27.0 W of power, so 27 Joules of energy per second; Therefore, it will remain on for a time of:

t=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^6 J}{27.0 W}=81481 s = 22.6 h

In designing circular rides for amusement parks, mechanical engineers must consider how small variations in certain parameters c
Bess [88]

Answer:

Part a)

dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr

Part b)

dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}

Part c)

dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that force on the passenger while moving in circle is given as

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

now variation in force is given as

dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr

here speed is constant

Part b)

Now if the variation in force is required such that r is constant then we will have

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

so we have

dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}

Part c)

As we know that time period of the circular motion is given as

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

so here if radius is constant then variation in time period is given as

dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv

Neglecting air resistance, what maximum height will be reached by an arrow launched straight upward with an initial speed of 35
tankabanditka [31]
The velocity at the maximum height will always be 0. Therefore, you will count your final velocity as 0, and your initial velocity as 35 m/s. Next, we know that the acceleration will be 9.8 m/s^2. How? Because the ball is thrown directly upward, and the only force acting on it will be the force of gravity pushing it back down.

The formula we use is h = (Vf^2 - Vi^2) / (2*-9.8m/s^2)

Plugging everything in, we have h = (0-1225)/(19.6) = 62.5 meters is the maximum height.
