A vice pushes on a system of three boards, each oriented vertically and held up by horizontal forces. The outer boards weigh 90

N and the inner board weighs 118 N. The coefficient of friction between the inner and the outer boards is 0.67. What is the magnitude of one of the compression forces acting on either side of the inner board?

Answer:

88.1 N

Explanation:

As shown in the free body diagram attached to the question, the only forces acting on the inner block include in the required vertical direction.

- Its Weight.

- Frictional forces as a result of the Two compression forces.

If the block is not to slip off, the weights must match the two frictional forces

Let the compressive forces be F and frictional force be Fr

Fr = μ F

Sum of force acting on the inner block in the y-direction

Fr + Fr - W = 0

μ F + μ F = mg

2 μF = 118

2(0.67) F = 118

F = 118/1.34

F = 88.1 N

Each of the compression forces is 88.1 N

Hope this Helps!!!

Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up
Westkost [7]

Answer:

24 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the cube = 6.0 kg

Consider the three cubes together as one.

M = mass of the three cubes together = 3 m = 3 (6.0) = 18 kg

a = acceleration of the combination = 2 ms⁻²

F = Force applied on the combination

Using Newton's second law

F = ma = (18) (2) = 36 N

F_{L} = Force by the left cube on the middle cube

Consider the forces acting on left cube, from the force diagram, we have

F - F_{L} = ma \\36 - F_{L} = (6) (2)\\F_{L} = 24 N

Ball A is allowed to fall and strike ball B. Assume that all of ball A's energy is transferred to ball B at point I, and that th
Alika [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

If no Energy is lost ( either as Sound energy or any other energy) the total energy of ball A equals the total energy of ball B

Therefore the Kinetic Energy of Ball B equals the Total Energy of Ball A minus the Potential Energy of Ball A
