. A 2.0-kg block is on a perfectly smooth ramp that makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. (a) What is the block’s accelerat

ion down the ramp and the force of the ramp on the block? (b) What force applied upward along and parallel to the ramp would allow the block to move with constant velocity?

Answer:

a) a = 4.9 m / s²,  N = 16.97 N   and b)   F = 9.8 N

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, we write a reference system with the x axis parallel to the plane, see attached, in this system the only force we have to break down is weight, let's use trigonometry

        sin 30 = Wx / W

        cos 30 = Wy / W

        Wx = W sin30

        Wy = W cos 30

Let's write the equations on each axis

X axis

        Wx = ma

Y Axis  

       N- Wy = 0

       N = Wy = mg cos 30

       N = 2.0 9.8 cos 30

       N = 16.97 N

We calculate the acceleration

       a = Wx / m

       a = mg sin 30 / m

       a = g sin 30

       a =9.8 sin 30

       a = 4.9 m / s²

b) For the block to move with constant speed, the acceleration must be zero, so the force applied must be equal to the weight component

      F -Wx = 0

      F = Wx

      F = m g sin 30

      F = 2.0 9.8 sin 30

      F = 9.8 N

A uniform plank 8.00 m in length with mass 50.0 kg is supported at two points located 1.00 m and 5.00 m, respectively, from the
andreev551 [17]

To solve the problem it is necessary to use Newton's second law and statistical equilibrium equations.

According to Newton's second law we have to

F = mg

where,

m= mass

g = gravitational acceleration

For the balance to break, there must be a mass M located at the right end.

We will define the mass m as the mass of the body, located in an equidistant center of the corners equal to 4m.

In this way, applying the static equilibrium equations, we have to sum up torques at point B,

\sum \tau = 0

Regarding the forces we have,

3Mg-1mg=0

Re-arrange to find M,

M = \frac{m}{3}

M = \frac{50}{3}

M = 16.67Kg

Therefore the maximum additional mass you could place on the right hand end of the plank and have the plank still be at rest is 16.67Kg

Zamir and Talia raced through a maze. Zamir walked 2 m north, 2 m east, 4 m south, 2 m east, 4 m north, 2 m east, 3 m south, 4 m
Alja [10]

Answer : Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.

Explanation :

Displacement is explained to be the changing position of an object.

Zamir covers total distance 27 m and Talia covers total distance 19 m but  Zamir's initial and final position and Talia's initial and final position is same.

So, we can say that Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.
