Answer:
energy is the capacity to do work
Answer:
a) P = 807.85 N, b) P = 392.15 N, c) P = 444.12 N
Explanation:
For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.
Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight
sin θ = Wₓ / W
cos θ = W_y / W
Wₓ = W sin θ
W_y = W cos θ
Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N
W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N
Y axis
N- W_y = 0
N = W_y = 1039.23 N
Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement
a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static
P -Wₓ -fr = 0
P = Wₓ + fr
as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic
fr = μ N
fr = 0.20 1039.23
fr = 207.85 N
we substitute
P = 600+ 207.85
P = 807.85 N
b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static
P + fr -Wx = 0
fr = μ N
fr = 0.20 1039.23
fr = 207.85 N
we substitute
P = Wₓ -fr
P = 600 - 207,846
P = 392.15 N
c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic
P - Wₓ + fr = 0
P = Wₓ - fr
fr = 0.15 1039.23
fr = 155.88 N
P = 600 - 155.88
P = 444.12 N
When placing the piece of aluminium in water, the level of water will rise by an amount equal to the volume of the piece of aluminum.
Therefore, we need to find the volume of that piece.
Density can be calculated using the following rule:
Density = mass / volume
Therefore:
volume = mass / density
we are given that:
the density = 2.7 g / cm^3
the mass = 16 grams
Substitute in the equation to get the volume of the piece of aluminum as follows:
volume = 16 / 2.7 = 5.9259 cm^3
Since the water level will rise to an amount equal to the volume of aluminum, therefore, the water level will rise by 5.9259 cm^3
