The uniform 10 kg ladder rests against the smooth wall at B and the end A rests on the rough horizontal plane for which the coef

ficient of static friction is µs = 0.3. Determine the angle of inclination θ of the ladder and the normal reaction at B if the ladder is on the verge of slipping.

Answer:

Angle of inclination = 16.7°; normal reaction = 93.96N

Step-by-step explanation:

Frictional force is known as force of opposition that tends to oppose the motion of a body (moving force Fm) placed on a rough surface. Frictional force Ff is expressed as;

Ff = nR where;

n is the coefficient of static friction

R is the normal reaction

From the formula;

n = Ff/R

Where Ff = Fm = Weight of the object × sinθ i.e Wsinθ

and R = Wcosθ

n = wsinθ/wcosθ

n = sinθ/cosθ

n = tanθ

Given µs = 0.3

0.3 = tanθ

θ = arctan0.3

θ = 16.7°

Angle of inclination is 16.7°

The normal reaction at B if the ladder is on the verge of slipping can be gotten using the expression;

R = wcosθ

R = mgcosθ where

m is the mass of the ladder = 10kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s

R = 10×9.81×cos16.7°

R = 93.96N

Increased movement of the particles in a solid comes from increased ________.
Andrej [43]

Here's what I found !

<h2>"With an increase in temperature, the particles move faster as they gain kinetic energy, resulting in increased collision rates and an increased rate of diffusion. In a solid, the particles pack together as tightly as possible in a neat and ordered arrangement."</h2>

as viewed from Cliff 360 m above sea level the angle of depression of a ship is to 28° how far is the ship from the shore
andrezito [222]
The distance of the ship from the shore is given by:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=28°
adjacent=x
opposite=360 m

substituting the values in our equation we get:
tan 28=360/x
solving for x we get
x=360/tan 28
x=677.06 m

Compare the fraction 3/5 to 1/2 and then compare 2/6 to 1/2. Use symbols in your answer
worty [1.4K]
Hello there!

"Compare the fraction 3/5 to 1/2 and then compare 2/6 to 1/2. Use symbols in your answer"


To make this easier, we will make it so that both fractions in each pair has like bases.

To make 3/5 and 1/2 have a like base, we must make the denominators 10. To do this, we will do the following:

(3*2)/(5*2) = 6/10

(1*5)/(2*5) = 5/10

Now we can easily compare and not worry about the denominator

So, let's just look at the numerators. 

Which is greater, 5 or 6? We know 6 is greater, so:

6/10 > 5/10

That means:

3/5 > 1/2

Now, we must do the same for 2/6 and 1/2

We will make them both 6. So, we can leave 2/6 alone

2/6

(1*3)/(2*3) = 3/6

Now we have 2/6 and 3/6

Which is greater, 3 or 2. The answer to that is 2. So:

3/6 > 2/6

This means that 1/2 > 2/6


Our answers are:

1. 3/6 > 2/6

2. 1/2 > 2/6


I hope I was able to help you!
