Answer:
the angle must decrease to maintain balance and that the system remains motionless
Explanation:
In a system of a block in an inclined plane, using Newton's second law
X Axis Wₓ-fr = 0
Y Axis N - = 0
The equation for the force of friction is
fr = μ N
And using trigonometry for weight components
sin θ = Wₓ / W
cos θ = W_{y}/ W
Wₓ = W sin θ
W_{y} = W cos θ
We replace
Wₓ = fr
W sin θ = μ Wcos θ
tan θ = μ
If the coefficient of friction decreases the force of static friction decreases, ₓso the value of the tangent must decrease so the angle must decrease to maintain balance and that the system remains motionless or with constant speed
Answer:
5 mm
Explanation:
Youngs's modulus (Y) is described by the following expression:
Where F is the force exerted on the tendon, L is its length, A is its area and ΔL is its change in length (stretching).
The force in this case is 8 times the weight of the runner:
Therefore, the change in length of the tendon is given by:
the runner's Achilles tendon will stretch by 0.004989 m, which is roughly 5 mm.
