A block is sliding down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 65o with the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction

between the block and plane is 0.17, what is the magnitude of the block’s acceleration down the plane?

Answer:

8.2 m/s²

Explanation:

m = mass of the block

μ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.17

F_{n} = Normal force on the block by the ramp

f_{k} = kinetic frictional force

Force equation perpendicular to ramp surface is given as

F_{n} = mg Cos65

Kinetic frictional force is given as

f_{k} = \mu F_{n}

f_{k} = \mu mg Cos65

Force equation parallel to ramp surface is given as

mg Sin65 - f_{k} = ma

mg Sin65 - \mu mg Cos65 = ma

g Sin65 - \mu g Cos65 = a

(9.8) Sin65 - (0.17) (9.8) Cos65 = a

a = 8.2 m/s²

a large sphere is on a horizontal field on a sunny day. at a certain time the shadow reaches out a distance of 10 m from the poi
Mars2501 [29]

The radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

Think about the angle the ground and the shadow make. Since the sun's beams are parallel, the angle created by the stick's shadow is also equal. Since the stick is 1 m high and its shadow is 2 m long, we know that the stick's angle is arctan 1/2. Therefore, by thinking of a right-angled triangle,

r/10 = tan [arctan(1/2)] = tan (1/2)

Since, tan (θ/2) = 1-cos(θ) / sin(θ)

we find that,

r/10 = \sqrt{5} -2

Hence, r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

So, the radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

Which type of fitness is not based on performance?
Aneli [31]
Fitness can be measured during the actual performance.
Which means that there are a lot of factors that can affect agility, speed, and coordination beside the physical factors itself. Meanwhile, flexibility solely depends on the physical Factors.


The answer is flexibility .

A 63.0 kg astronaut is on a spacewalk when the tether line to the shuttle breaks. the astronaut is able to throw a spare 10.0 kg
Llana [10]

There are other forces at work here nevertheless we will imagine it is just a conservation of momentum exercise. Also the given mass of the astronaut is light astronaut.

The solution for this problem is using the formula: m1V1=m2V2 but we need to get V1:

V1= (m2/m1) V2


V1= (10/63) 12 = 1.9 m/s will be the final speed of the astronaut after throwing the tank.
