Consider a stone in free fall on a planet with gravitational acceleration 3.4 m/s^2. Suppose you would like the stone to experie

nce the same magnitude of acceleration down an inclined plane on Earth. Neglecting friction and air resistance, which angle should the inclined plane have with respect to the horizontal ? (in deg)

Answer:

Angle of incline is 20.2978°

Explanation:

Given that;

Gravitational acceleration on a planet a = 3.4 m/s²

Gravitational acceleration on Earth g = 9.8 m/s²

Angle of incline = ∅

Mass of the stone = m

Force on the stone along the incline will be;

F = mgSin∅

F = ma

The stone has the same acceleration as that of the gravitational acceleration on the planet.

so

ma = mgSin∅

a = gSin∅

Sin∅ = a / g

we substitute

Sin∅ = (3.4 m/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

Sin∅ = 0.3469

∅ = Sin⁻¹( 0.3469 )

∅ = 20.2978°

Therefore, Angle of incline is 20.2978°

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 21
Inga [223]

Answer:

12353 V m⁻¹ = 12.4 kV m⁻¹

Explanation:  

Electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor depends on the potential difference across the plates and their distance of separation.Potential difference across the plates V over the distance between the plates gives the electric field between the plates. Potential difference is the amount of work done per unit charge and is given here as 21 V. Electric field is the voltage over distance.

E = V ÷ d = 21 ÷ 0.0017 = 12353 V m⁻¹

Calculate Gravitational Potential Energy for an object on Earth with a mass of 2 kg and a height of 7 m.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

137.2J

Explanation:

Ep= mgh

Given,

  • m=2kg
  • h=7m

and we know, g = 9.81 N/kg

Ep= 2 × 9.81 × 7

Ep= 137.2J

Two gliders collide on a frictionless air track that is aligned along the x axis. Glider A has an initial velocity of +4.0 m/s a
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

As collision is elastic,thus we can use conservation of momentum equation

mA=0.2 kg

(vB)1=0 m/s.......................as it is on rest before collision

(vA)1=4 m/s

(vA)2=-1 m/s

(vB)2=2 m/s

using equation

(mA*vA+mB*vB)1= (mA*vA+mB*vB)2

Where 1 and 2 represents before and after collision

(0.2*4)+(mB*0)=(0.2*-1)+(mB*2)

0.8=-0.2+(2mB)

mass of object B=mB=0.3 Kg

A 1.55-kg object hangs in equilibrium at the end of a rope (taken as massless) while a wind pushes the object with a 13.3-n hori
yarga [219]
<span>To answer this problem, we use balancing of forces: x and y components to determine the tension of the rope.


First, the vertical component of tension (Tsin theta) is equal to the weight of the object. 
 T * sin θ = mg =</span> 1.55 * 9.81 <span>
 T * sin θ = 15.2055

Second, the horizontal component of tension (t cos theta) is equal to the force of the wind. 
 T * cos θ =  13.3 

Tan θ = sin  </span>θ / cos θ = 15.2055/13.3 = 1.143
we can find θ that is equal to 48.82. 

T then is equal to 20.20 N
