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

If the mass of an object increases, how is its acceleration affected, assuming the net force acting on the object remains the sa
vovikov84 [41]
Based on Newton's second law of motion, the net force applied to an object is equal to the product of the mass of the object and the acceleration it experiences. That is,
  
          F = ma

If we are to assume that the net force is constant and that the mass is increased, the acceleration should therefore decrease in order to make constant the value at the right-hand side of the equation.

Differenciate between fundamentals quantities and derived quantities
REY [17]

Answer:

Fundamental quantities are the base quantities of a unit system, and they are defined independent of the other...

• Derived quantities are based on fundamental quantities, and they can be given in terms of fundamental quantities.

• In SI units, derived units are often given names of people such as Newton and Joule.
