Answer:

Explanation:

mechanical advantage = output force / input force

= 740 N / 55 N

= 13.45

A crate lies on a plane tilted at an angle θ = 22.5 ∘ to the horizontal, with μk = 0.19.
ValentinkaMS [17]

A) 2.03 m/s^2

Let's start by writing the equation of the forces along the directions parallel and perpendicular to the incline:

Parallel:

mg sin \theta - \mu_k R = ma (1)

where

m is the mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 the acceleration of gravity

\theta=22.5^{\circ}

\mu_k = 0.19 is the coefficient of friction

R is the normal reaction

a is the acceleration

Perpendicular:

R-mg cos \theta =0 (2)

From (2) we find

R=mg cos \theta

And substituting into (1)

mg sin \theta - \mu_k mg cos \theta = ma

Solving for a,

a=g sin \theta - \mu_k g cos \theta = (9.8)(sin 22.5)-(0.19)(9.8)(cos 22.5)=2.03 m/s^2

B) 5.94 m/s

We can solve this part by using the suvat equation

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

Here we have

v = ?

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=2.03 m/s^2

s = 8.70 m

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0+2(2.03)(8.70)}=5.94 m/s
