The 20 kg at angle of 53⁰ in an inclined plane is realsed from rest the coefficient of friction bn the block and the inclined pl

Scorpion4ik [409]

Given :-

A 20kg block at an angle 53⁰ in an inclined plane is released from rest .
$\mu_s = 0.3 \ \& \ \mu_k = 0.2$

To Find :-

Would the block move ?
If it moves what is its speed after it has descended a distance of 5m down the plane .

Solution :-

For figure refer to attachment .

So the block will move if the angle of the inclined plane is greater than the angle of repose . We can find it as ,

$\longrightarrow \theta_{repose}= tan^{-1}(\mu_s)$

Substitute ,

$\longrightarrow \theta_{repose}= tan^{-1}( 0.2)$

Solve ,

$\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{\theta_{repose}= 16.6^o }}$

Hence ,

$\longrightarrow\theta_{plane}>\theta_{repose}$

Hence the block will slide down .

Now assuming that block is released from the reset , it's initial velocity will be 0m/s .

And the net force will be ,

$\longrightarrow F_n = mgsin53^o - \mu_k N$

Substitute, N = mgcos53⁰ ( see attachment)

$\longrightarrow ma_n = mgsin53^o - \mu_k mgcos53^o$

Take m as common,

$\longrightarrow\cancel{m }(a_n) = \cancel{m}( gsin53^o - \mu gcos53^o)$

Simplify ,

$\longrightarrow a_n = gsin53^o - \mu_k g cos53^o$

Substitute the values of sin , cos and g ,

$\longrightarrow a_n = 10( 0.79 - 0.2 (0.6))$

Simplify ,

$\longrightarrow a_n = 10 ( 0.79 - 0.12 ) \\\\ \longrightarrow a_n = 10 (0.67)\\\\ \longrightarrow \underline{\underline{a_n = 6.7 m/s^2}}$

Now using the Third equation of motion namely,

$\longrightarrow2as = v^2-u^2$

Substituting the respective values,

$\longrightarrow2(6.7)(5) = v^2-(0)^2$

Simplify and solve for v ,

$\longrightarrow v^2 = 67 m/s\\\\\longrightarrow v =\sqrt{67} m/s \\\\\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{ v = 8.18 m/s }}$

Hence the velocity after covering 5m is 8.18 m/s .

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Approximately $3.98\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

Assumption: air resistance on the rocket is negligible. Take $g = \rm 9.81\; m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law of Motion, the acceleration of the rocket is proportional to the net force on it.

$\displaystyle \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}}$ .

Note that in this case, the uppercase letter $\rm M$ in the units stands for "mega-", which is the same as $10^6$ times the unit that follows. For example, $\rm 1\; Mg = 10^6\; g$ , while $\rm 1\; MN = 10^6\; N$ .

Convert the mass of the rocket and the thrust of its engines to SI standard units:

The standard unit for mass is kilograms: $\displaystyle m = \rm 552\; Mg = 552 \times 10^6\; g \times \frac{1\; \rm kg}{10^3\; g} = 552 \times 10^3 \; kg$ .
The standard for forces (including thrust) is Newtons: $\text{Thrust} = \rm 7.61 \; MN = 7.61 \times 10^6\; N$ .

At launch, the velocity of the rocket would be pretty low. Hence, compared to thrust and weight, the air resistance on the rocket would be pretty negligible. The two main forces that contribute to the net force of the rocket would be:

Thrust (which is supposed to go upwards), and
Weight (downwards due to gravity.)

The thrust on the rocket is already known to be $\rm 7.61 \times 10^6\; N$ . Since the rocket is quite close to the ground, the gravitational acceleration on it should be approximately $9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} = 9.81 \; N \cdot kg^{-1}$ . Hence, the weight on the rocket would be approximately $9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} \times 552 \times 10^3\; kg = 5.41412\times 10^6\; N$ .

The magnitude of the net force on the rocket would be

$\begin{aligned}&\text{Thrust} - \text{Weight} \\ &= 7.61 \times 10^6\; \rm N - 5.41412\times 10^6\; N \\ &\approx 2.19 \times 10^6\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

Apply the formula $\displaystyle \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}}$ to find the net force on the rocket. To make sure that the output (acceleration) is in SI units (meters-per-second,) make sure that the inputs (net force and mass) are also in SI units (Newtons for net force and kilograms for mass.)

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle &\text{Acceleration} \\ &= \frac{\text{Net Force}}{\text{Mass}} \\ &= \frac{2.19 \times 10^6\; \rm N}{552 \times 10^3\; \rm kg} \\ &\approx \rm 3.98\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\end{aligned}$ .

A scientific theory states that the universe is expanding. the statement is correct about this theory is: d. it is a well supported explanation which cannot become law. a theory is very different from a law. a theory explain why something happen.
