. 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

Consider a space shuttle which has a mass of about 1.0 x 105 kg and circles the Earth at an altitude of about 200.0 km. Calculat
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1.6675×10^-16N

Explanation:

The force of gravity that the space shuttle experiences is expressed as;

g = GM/r²

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass = 1.0 x 10^5 kg

r is the altitude = 200km = 200,000m

Substitute into the formula

g = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.0×10^5/(2×10^5)²

g = 6.67×10^-6/4×10^10

g = 1.6675×10^{-6-10}

g = 1.6675×10^-16N

Hence the force of gravity experienced by the shuttle is 1.6675×10^-16N

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c
amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

Which substances are inorganic? Check all that apply.
bezimeni [28]

The major characteristic an organic compound has which an inorganic

compound doesn't  have is the presence of carbon atoms in the molecule.

This helps us to differentiate the compounds into their respective divisions.

Inorganic compounds

  • K2CO3
  • Fe3O4

Organic compounds

  • C6H12O6
  • C4H10
  • C27H46O

We can observe that inorganic compounds lack carbon atoms which makes

the answer valid.
