Answer:
The solution is given in the picture attached below
Explanation:
Answer: µ=0.205
Explanation:
The horizontal forces acting on the ladder are the friction(f) at the floor and the normal force (Fw) at the wall. For horizontal equilibrium,
f=Fw
The sum of the moments about the base of the ladder Is 0
ΣM = 0 = Fw*L*sin74.3º - (25.8kg*(L/2) + 67.08kg*0.82L)*cos74.3º*9.8m/s²
Note that it doesn't matter WHAT the length of the ladder is -- it cancels.
Solve this for Fw.
0= 0.9637FwL - (67.91L)2.652
Fw=180.1/0.9637
Fw=186.87N
f=186.81N
Since Fw=f
We know Fw, so we know f.
But f = µ*Fn
where Fn is the normal force at the floor --
Fn = (25.8 + 67.08)kg * 9.8m/s² =
910.22N
so
µ = f / Fn
186.81/910.22
µ= 0.205
Answer: the answer should be 6,720 decameters.
Answer:
Gravity acts to pull the object down.
The object’s inertia carries it forward.
The path of the object is curved.
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two separate motions:
- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, where the velocity is constant; since there are no forces along this direction, the velocity does not change, and so the object continues its motion for inertia --> so, the statement "The object’s inertia carries it forward" is true.
- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with a constant downward acceleration (g=9.8 m/s^2, acceleration due to gravity). So, the vertical velocity changes, due to the presence of the gravity that acts to pull the object down.
- As a result of the combination of these two motions, the object follows a curved path (in particular, it is a parabolic path).
