. 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

Could You Take 2 Elements From The Periodic Table Of Elements, and possibly make one of other 116 elements that are on the table
LekaFEV [45]
That's what stars do all the time. 
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy. 
That's where the sun's energy all comes from.  It's called "nuclear fusion". 
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen.  We know how
to do it, but we can't control it.  So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.   

There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.

a large sphere is on a horizontal field on a sunny day. at a certain time the shadow reaches out a distance of 10 m from the poi
Mars2501 [29]

The radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

Think about the angle the ground and the shadow make. Since the sun's beams are parallel, the angle created by the stick's shadow is also equal. Since the stick is 1 m high and its shadow is 2 m long, we know that the stick's angle is arctan 1/2. Therefore, by thinking of a right-angled triangle,

r/10 = tan [arctan(1/2)] = tan (1/2)

Since, tan (θ/2) = 1-cos(θ) / sin(θ)

we find that,

r/10 = \sqrt{5} -2

Hence, r = 10\sqrt{5} -20

So, the radius of the sphere in meters is ,r = 10\sqrt{5} -20
