Apple hits the surface with speed 16.2 m/s
The angle made by the apple velocity with normal to the incline surface is given as 20 degree
now the component of velocity which is parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the surface is given as
so here we have
<em>so its velocity along the incline plane will be 5.5 m/s</em>
The frictional force is 39.4 N
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by applying Newton's 2nd law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on the block is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. So we can write
where
is the net force
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
Here we know that the box is moving with constant velocity, so its acceleration is zero:
This means that the net force is also zero:
The net force on the block is given by the applied force, forward, and the frictional force, backward:
where
is the applied force
is the frictional force
Therefore, solving for ,
