A rope pulls a 82.5 kg skier at a constant speed up a 18.7° slope with μk = 0.150. How much force does the rope exert?

Physics

Answer:

374 N

Explanation:

N = normal force acting on the skier

m = mass of the skier = 82.5

From the force diagram, force equation perpendicular to the slope is given as

N = mg Cos18.7

μ = Coefficient of friction = 0.150

frictional force is given as

f = μN

f =  μmg Cos18.7

F = force applied by the rope

Force equation parallel to the slope is given as

F - f - mg Sin18.7 = 0

F - μmg Cos18.7 - mg Sin18.7 = 0

F = μmg Cos18.7 + mg Sin18.7

F = (0.150 x 82.5 x 9.8) Cos18.7 + (82.5 x 9.8) Sin18.7

F = 374 N

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

 N = 23.4 N

Explanation:

After reading that long sentence, let's solve the question

The contact force is the so-called normal in this case we can find it by writing the translational equilibrium equation for the y axis

            N - w₁ -w₂ =

            N = m₁ g + m₂ g

            N = g (m₁ + m₂)

let's calculate

            N = 9.8 (0.760 + 1.630)

            N = 23.4 N

This is the force of the support of the two blocks on the surface.
