A 100g block lies on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 15 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio

n between the block and the plane is 0.6. Attached to this block is a massless, frictionless rope connected to a block-and-tackle type device (again, frictionless and massless). Hanging on the pulley is a container of mass 30g. How much mass should you put in the container so that the 100g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed

Answer:

Mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 34.16 g

Explanation:

The vertical forces (with respect to the inclined plane) acting on the 100 g block include the component of the weight of the block in the direction vertical to the inclined plane and the normal reaction of the plane on the block.

And sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces.

N = mg cos θ

m = 100 g = 0.10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

θ = 15°

N = (0.1×9.8×cos 15°) = 0.946582 N

The horizontal forces (With respect to the inclined plane) include the frictional force (acting upwards for the inclined plane, opposite to the intended direction of motion), the Tension in the rope (acting downwards, away from the 100 g block) and the horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block, F, (also acting downards).

For the body to slide down the inclined plane at constant speed, the downward sloping forces must balance the frictional force, that is, there will be no acceleration.

Frictional force = Tension + F

Frictional force = μN

where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.60

N = normal reaction = 0.9466 N

Frictional force = Fr = (0.60 × 0.9466) = 0.56796 N = 0.568 N

The horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block (also acting downards) = mg sin θ

F = (0.10 × 9.8 × sin 15°) = 0.253624 N

Tension in the rope = T = ?

Fr = F + T

T = Fr - F = 0.568 - 0.253624 = 0.314376 N = 0.3144 N

But the balance on the rope now has the total weight on the container (weight of container + weight on the container) to be equal to 2T.

2T = mg

2 × 0.3144 = 9.8m

m = 0.06416 kg = 64.16 g.

Mass of the container = 30 g

So, mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 64.16 - 30 = 34.16 g

Hope this Helps!!!

When the sound from two sound waves goes up and down (loud, soft, loud, soft) it makes a distinctive sound pattern called beats.
djverab [1.8K]

The beats are actually two new sounds.

Their frequencies are (the sum of the original two frequencies) and (the difference of the original two frequencies).

The existence of the beats is the result of the difference in the frequencies of the original two sounds. <em> (b)</em>

This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e
Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p

where \rho = 1.2 kg/m^3 is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and C_p = 0.45 is the efficiency

10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45

10000 = 190A

A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

\pi r^2 = A = 52.7

r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79

r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m

Match the lithification processes.
butalik [34]

Explanation:

Recrystallization: contact pressure causing grains to "fuse" together

Cementation : precipitation of bonding agents between grains

Compaction : increase in density due to weight of overburden

Lithification is the process by which sediments are converted into sedimentary rocks. During this process, recrystallication, compaction and cementation of mineral grains occur.

The process starts with the compaction of sediments. The over burden weight of new sediments in the basin adds to the one originally deposited. This compresses the sediment. The volume of reduced and the density increases.

Recrystallization follows suit as the contact pressure of grains makes them fuse together. It is more like reworking of sediments. In this process, cementing materials can precipitate and cause sediments to be more fused together.

This is why most sediment are made up of clasts in a matrix of cementing materials.
