A box that has a mass of 80 kg slides down a ramp with a 30 degree angle. The free-body diagram shows the forces acting on the b

ox. Ignoring friction and air resistance, what is the acceleration of the box, to the nearest tenth?
-0.5 m/s2
-4.9 m/s2
-8.5 m/s2
-9.8 m/s2

The force responsible for sliding the block down along the ramp is the component of the weight parallel to the ramp.

The weight of the block is

W=mg=(80 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=784 N

The component of the weight parallel to the ramp is

W_{par} = W sin 30^{\circ}= (784 N)( sin 30^{\circ} )=392 N

And now we can find the acceleration of the box by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{392 N}{80 kg}=4.9 m/s^2


So, the correct answer is

-4.9 m/s2

(the negative just means we have taken "upward along the ramp" as positive direction)

Out of that list, the concave mirror is the only item that can concentrate sunlight and heat into a small area. But if you could get ahold of a convex lens, that would be even better.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

explanation of this effect  is  the photoelectric effect

Explanation:

Let's describe the process, when light of large wavelength falls, this implies a small energy, according to Planck's equation

           E = h f = \frac{h \ c}{ \lambda}

the energy of the photons is not enough to carry out an electronic transition between two states of the material, when we decrease the wavelength (the energy of the photons increases), the point is reached where the energy of the beam is equal to some energy of a transition, by which the electrons are promoted and since we can see a certain charge, as the atoms are neutral, some electrons must be removed from the material, this is represented in the macroscopic case as the work function of the material, consequently a unbalanced load that is what we can measure.

When we increase the lightning intensity, what we do is that we increase the number of photons and if each photon can remove an electron, by removing the electrons the difference between it and the positive charge (fixed in the nuclei) increases.

We can analyze the interaction of the photon and the electron as a particular collision.

The explanation of this effect was made by Einstein in his explained of the photoelectric effect

Answer:

M_c = 100.8 Nm

Explanation:

Given:

F_a = 2.5 KN

Find:

Determine the moment of this force about C for the two cases shown.

Solution:

- Draw horizontal and vertical vectors at point A.

- Take moments about point C as follows:

                        M_c = F_a*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 2.5*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 100.8 Nm

- We see that the vertical component of force at point A passes through C.

Hence, its moment about C is zero.
