Suppose a ladder of length L = 8 m and mass m = 20 kg is leaning up against a wall such that it makes an angle of θ = 70 degree

angle with the floor and is not moving. For this problem, we'll say there is no one standing on the ladder. Just like the very last problem on the discussion worksheet, we'll also imagine that the ladder is up against a very smooth wall so that there is no frictional force exerted on the ladder by the wall, but there is a frictional force between the bottom of the ladder and the floor. What is the magnitude of the fictional force between the ladder and the floor?

Answer:

fr = 269.3 N

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law, for this it is good to see the attached diagram,

X axis

    fr -F2 = 0

    fr = F2

Y Axis

   N-W = 0

We must include the rotation balance, place the rotation point at the bottom of the ladder and take the positive counterclockwise turns.

    Σ τ  = 0

    F2 x -W y / 2 = 0

We look for x and y with trigonometry

    sin 70 = y / L

   cos 70 = x / L

   y = L sin70

   x = L cos 70

We substitute and calculate F2

   F2 L cos 70 = W  L sin 70 / 2

   F2 = mg/2  tan 70

   F2 = 20 9.8/2  tan 70

   F2 = 269.3 N

From the first equation (x axis)

   fr = F2

   fr = 269.3 N

Why do the magnetic forces acting on the coil change as the current running through the coil changes?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: The changing magnetic field caused by the material's motion induces a current in the coil of wire proportional to the change in field. If a 0 is represented, the magnetic field does not change between the two domains of a bit, so no current is induced as the magnetic material passes the coil.

A 1200-kilogram automobile in motion strikes a 0.0001-kilogram insect. As a result, the insect is accelerated at a rate of 100 m
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N

Explanation:

given data

automobile mass = 1200 kg

insect mass = 0.0001 kg

insect accelerated = 100 m/s²

to find out

magnitude of the force the insect exerts on the car

solution

we get here force the insect exerts that is express as

force = mass × acceleration    ............1

put here value we get

force = 0.0001 × 100 m/s²

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N

babunello [35]
Locke said that under natural law, all people have the right to life, liberty, and private property; under the social contract, the people could instigate a revolution against the government when it acted against the interests of citizens, to replace the government with one that served the interests of citizens.
