If an object is to rest on an incline without slipping, then friction must equal the component of the weight of the object paral
leonid [27]

Answer:

\theta = tan^{-1}\mu

Explanation:

As we know that if the object is placed on the inclined plane then the force of friction on the object is counterbalanced by the component of the weight of the object along the inclined plane.

So we can say

F_f = mgsin\theta

now if we increase the inclination of the plane then the component of the weight weight along the inclined plane will increase and hence the friction force will also increase.

As we know that the limiting value or the maximum value of friction force at the static condition is given by

F_f = \mu N

N = mg cos\theta

so we have

F_f = \mu (mg cos\theta)

so we will have

mg sin\theta = \mu (mg cos\theta)

so now we have

tan\theta = \mu

so maximum possible angle of the inclined plane is

\theta = tan^{-1}\mu

saveliy_v [14]
Hi there!

Two possible answers are air resistance and friction.

Friction is caused by the rubbing of the surface of the ground and the surface of the object. Although ice doesn't have much friction, it can still cause friction.

Air resistance is caused by friction between the air and the object. As the object moves along a surface, it collides into many air particles; thus, it slows down.

Hope this helps.
Have an awesome day! :)

A car moving at a speed of 36 km/h reaches the foot of a smooth
boyakko [2]

Answer:

d = 10.2 m

Explanation:

When the car travels up the inclined plane, its kinetic energy will be used to do the work in climbing up. So according to the law of conservation of energy, we can write that:

Kinetic\ Energy\ of\ the \ Car = Work\ Done\ while\ moving\ up\ the\ plane\\\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = Fd

where,

m = mass of car

v = speed of car at the start of plane = (36 km/h)(1000 m/1 km)(1 h/3600 s)

v = 10 m/s

F = force on the car in direction of inclination = W Sin θ

W = weight of car = mg

θ = Angle of inclinition = 30°

d = distance covered up the ramp = ?

Therefore,

\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = mgdSin\theta\\\frac{1}{2}v^{2} = gdSin\theta\\\frac{1}{2}(10\ m/s)^{2} = d(9.81\ m/s^{2}) Sin\ 30^{0}

<u>d = 10.2 m</u>

Suppose the green car was traveling at 0 miles the white car was traveling at 70 miles at the red car was trailing at 22 miles w
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The white car will cover the most distance every second.

Explanation:

The formula for the uniform speed of an object is given as follows:

s = vt

where,

s = distance covered by the object

v = speed of the object

t = time required

Now, if we assume time to be  constant at 1 s. Then the distance covered by each car will be directly proportional to the speed of the car. Hence, the car with the greatest speed will travel the greatest distance in 1 second.

We, have:

Speed of white car > Speed of red car > Speed of green car

<u>Therefore, the white car will cover the most distance every second.</u>
