A block is at rest on the incline shown in the gure. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.6 and 0.51, respec- t

Normal reaction force on the block while it is at rest on the inclined plane is given as

F_n = mgcos\theta

here we know that

m = 46 kg

\theta = 29^o

now we will have

F_n = 46*9.8*cos29 = 394.3 N

now the limiting friction or maximum value of static friction on the block will be given as

F_s = \mu_s * F_n

F_s = 0.6 * 394.3 = 236.56 N

Above value is the maximum value of force at which block will not slide

Now the weight of the block which is parallel to inclined plane is given as

F_{||} = mg sin\theta

here we know that

F_{||} = 46*9.8 sin29 = 218.55 N

Now since the weight of the block here is less than the value of limiting friction force and also the block is at rest then the frictional force on the block is static friction and it will just counter balance the weight of the block along the inclined plane.

So here <u>friction force on the given block will be same as its component on weight which is 218.55 N</u>

Use V=Voe^-t/RC and T=RC to derive T1/2=Tln2
Ksju [112]
Enclosed is some guidance algebra.I find this q a little confusing. It quotes "RC" which usually makes me think of electrical circuits and time constants based on converting calculating RC value and equating that to t for one time constant then 2RC for two time constants etc. The theory being that after 5 time constants - 5RC - a circuit is stable. BUT, this q then goes on to mention HALF LIFE. The curves for both half life and time constant are both exponential, as in the number e to the power of something, but the algebra is slightly different. I hope my algebra is ok.

A light bulb converts electrical energy into light energy and also some thermal energy. The amount of electrical energy is 50 Jo
Kitty [74]
If the amount of electrical energy is 50 Joules before the conversions, then it would be 50 Joules after the conversion.

According to law of conservation of energy, we cannot create or destroy energy so it remains constant

Hope this helps!
