A 25 kg box of textbooks rests on a loading ramp that makes an angle α with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction

is 0.25, and the coefficient of static friction is 0.35. As the angle is increased, find the minimum angle at which the box starts to slip.

Up until the moment the box starts to slip, the static friction is maximized with magnitude <em>f</em>, so that by Newton's second law,

• the net force acting on the box parallel to the ramp is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>mg</em> sin(<em>α</em>) - <em>f</em> = 0

where <em>mg</em> sin(<em>α</em>) is the magnitude of the parallel component of the box's weight; and

• the net force acting perpendicular to the ramp is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> cos(<em>α</em>) = 0

where <em>n</em> is the magnitude of the normal force and <em>mg</em> cos(<em>α</em>) is the magnitude of the perpendicular component of weight.

From the second equation we have

<em>n</em> = <em>mg</em> cos(<em>α</em>)

and <em>f</em> = <em>µn</em> = <em>µmg</em> cos(<em>α</em>), where <em>µ</em> is the coefficient of static friction. Substituting these into the first equation gives us

<em>mg</em> sin(<em>α</em>) = <em>µmg</em> cos(<em>α</em>)   ==>   <em>µ</em> = tan(<em>α</em>)   ==>   <em>α</em> = arctan(0.35) ≈ 19.3°

You are driving at the speed of 27.7 m/s (61.9764 mph) when suddenly the car in front of you (previously traveling at the same s
densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2

Compare the inner core and the outer core?
vfiekz [6]

To compare the inner core and the outer core, we need to outline the parameters based on

  1. Temperature - the outer core has 2000-5000 C, while inner reach 6000 C
  2. Structure and consistency - The outer core consist of iron and nickel, mix with low amount of gold, platinum, and uranium, while inner is the melting pot of all dense material and lot of uranium.
  3. Depth - The outer core has depth to 2900 km, while inner core has 1300 - 1400 km radius.

<h3>Further explanation</h3><h3>Consistency / materials</h3>
  • Both the outer core and the inner core are made generally of iron and nickel.  
<h3 /><h3>Temperature</h3>
  • The outer core achieves a temperature of 2000°c. The inward center has a temperature as high as 5000°c.
  • The inner core achieves a temperature of 6000 °c.
  • Within this temperature, both nickel and iron are dissolved and converted into a fluid.

<h3>Structure</h3>
  • In contrast to the outer core, the internal base is reduced in spite of the boiling temperature achieved the radioactive rot of uranium due to the incredible weight that keeps this layer in a stable stage.
  • The layer that partitions the external center and internal center is known as Bullen brokenness. Bullen brokenness is likewise the most sizzling locale of wherein the temperature reaches up to 6000°c its as hot as the outside of the sun.

<h3>Depth </h3>
  • Outside the outer and inner core, there is mantle that has the depth to around 2,900 kilometers from the Earth's surface.
  • The outer has depth more than 2900 kilometers from Earth surface.
  • The iner core is the deepest among all of them and has radius for 1300 kilometers.

<h3>Structure of Earth</h3>

The Earth is separated into four layers. The external layer is the hull, beneath the covering is the mantle, and pursued by the external center, at that point, the most profound and the most smoking layer is known as the internal center.

<h3>Learn more</h3>

Here are the four layers of the Earth

  1. Hull
  2. Mantle
  3. External center
  4. Internal center

<h3>1. Hull or crust </h3>

The hull is the peripheral and the thinnest layer which goes about as the skin of the Earth that stretches out from the surface to around 32 kilometers beneath. This is the layer where we live, and volcanoes, quake, and mountain reaches are framed.

  • The marine shell is denser and more slender contrasted with mainland hull.
  • Mainland hull is thicker and is less thick contrasted with the maritime shell.

<h3>2. Mantle </h3>

Underneath the outside is the layer known as the mantle, which stretches out to around 2,900 kilometers from the Earth's surface. The coat is the thickest layer of the Earth and is progressively thick contrasted with the outside. It is the path more sizzling than the covering and equipped for liquefying it. The upper mantle is plastic, its made up of magma that as a result of an excessive amount of warmth it streams which causes changes on the outside of the Earth.

<h3>3. Outer Core </h3>

The external center is 2900 kilometers underneath the outside of the Earth. It is for the most part comprised of iron and nickel; however, in the fluid stage and its temperature ranges to about 2000°C. Regardless of whether the external center has a high weight, yet because of its a lot higher temperature, nickel and iron are liquefied. The external center is streaming outside the internal center, which produces an attractive field that shields the Earth from the hazardous, radioactive material originating from the warmth of the sun.

<h3>4. Internal Core </h3>

The internal center is the most profound layer comprised of heavy iron and nickel and has a sweep of around 1,300 kilometers. Its temperature scopes to about 5000°C. The internal has the most elevated thickness contrasted with the other. The warmth in the inside of the Earth is brought about by the radioactive rot of uranium in the internal center, which discharges considerable measure of heat.
