Answer:
Normal force=mg
Explanation:
The reaction force of weight is the normal force.
in order to find the normal for we need to write all the forces and set it equal to the net force:
N-mg=ma (since it is a constant speed the a=0)
N=mg
Answer:
Explanation:
Let x ft be used to make square and 2-x ft be used to make equilateral triangle.
each side of square = x/4
area of square = ( x /4 )²
Each side of triangle
= (2-x) /3
Area of triangle = 1/2 (2-x)²/9 sin 60
= √3 / 36 x (2-x)²
Total area
A = ( x /4 )² +√3 / 36 (2-x)²
For maximum area
dA/dx = 0
1/16( 2x ) -√3 / 36 x2(2-x) = 0
x / 8 - √3(2-x)/ 18 = 0
x / 8 - √3/9 + √3/18 x = 0
x ( 1/8 + √3/18 ) = √3/9
x(.125 +.096 ) = .192
x = .868 ft
It's Decrease or cease to exist, but I'm leaning more towards decrease.
