In the first figure here, a sled is held on an inclined plane by a cord pulling directly up the plane. The sled is to be on the

verge of moving up the plane. In the second figure, the magnitude F required of the cord's force on the sled is plotted versus the coefficient of static friction μs between sled and plane: F1 = 2.2 N, F2 = 4.5 N, and μ2 = 0.512. At what angle θ (in ˚) is the plane inclined?

When it says something like 'on the verge of moving,' it means that the pulling force and static friction force and gravitational force all cancel out! Any more pulling force and it is ready to move! At some point, you want F as a function of <span>μs</span>, to determine the force needed depending on the coefficient of static friction. This function, <span>F(<span>μs</span>)</span>, will rely on the angle θ as well, but we want to consider just one angle θ in every scenario. One value means it is constant. But if we know the F, and we know <span>μs</span>, we can find what the constant angle θ must be! If F is the pulling force, <span>FS</span> is the static friction force, and <span>FG</span> is gravitational force, <span><span><span>Fnet</span>=0</span><span>=F+<span>FS</span>+<span>FG</span></span><span>=F+<span>FN</span><span>μs</span>+mgsinθ</span><span>=F+mgcosθ<span>μs</span>+mgsinθ</span><span>=0</span></span> Then you can find <span>F(<span>μs</span>)</span>, but then there is the issue of solving for the θ<span> to make it true.</span>

A 2.9-kg cart is rolling across a frictionless, horizontal track toward a 1.4-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The question is incomplete. I will assume you intend to find the total momentum of the two carts during collision. Therefore, we can use the conservation of momentum principle to get the total momentum at a certain instant before collision.

Explanation:

The conservation of momentum principle states that the initial net momentum of two bodies before collision is equal to the final net momentum after collision.

In this case, let's denote the rolling cart as <em>'a'</em> and the stationary cart as <em>'b'</em>.

Momentum, P = MaVa +MbVb

P=(2.9)(+4.7) + (1.4)(-1.9)\\P= 13.68 + (-2.66)\\P= 13.68-2.66\\P=+11.02 Kg.m/s

Therefore, the total momentum before collision is 11.02 Kg.m/s.

A(n) 9.9 g bullet is fired into a(n) 138 g block of wood at rest on a horizontal surface and stays inside. After impact, the blo
kompoz [17]

Answer:

185.25 m/s

Explanation:

consider the motion of the combination of bullet and block after the collision

v₀ = initial speed just after the collision

v' = final speed = 0 m/s

μ = Coefficient of friction = 0.6

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

a = acceleration of the combination = - μ g = - (0.6) (9.8) = - 5.88 m/s²

d = stopping distance = 13 m

using the kinematics equation

v'² = v₀² + 2 a d

0² = v₀² + 2 (- 5.88) (13)

v₀ = 12.4 m/s

m = mass of the bullet = 9.9 g = 0.0099 kg

M = mass of the wood = 138 g = 0.138 kg

v = speed of bullet before collision

v₀ = speed of combination after the collision = 12.4 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

m v = (m + M) v₀

(0.0099) v = (0.0099 + 0.138) (12.4)

v = 185.25 m/s

Moira is drawing the electric field lines around a pair of charges. One charge is positive, and the other charge is negative.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The best answer is B. If you curve them away, they have a less tendency to be attracted to the pair of charges and would stay around the pair instead of interacting with them.

kari74 [83]

Answer:

He could have many different hypothesis, but here is one.

Explanation:

If rubber bands are wider, then the rubber bands will stretch further, because the wider a rubber band is the stronger it is.
