Answer:

70 N

21°

1.1 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces:

Weight pulling straight down

Normal force pushing perpendicular to the incline

Friction force pushing parallel to the incline

Part 1

Sum the forces in the perpendicular direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg cos θ = 0

N = mg cos θ

The block is at rest, so F = N μs:

F = N μs

F = mg μs cos θ

F = (20 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.38) (cos 19°)

F = 70 N

Part 2

Sum the forces in the parallel direction (down the incline is positive):

∑F = ma

mg sin θ − F = 0

mg sin θ = N μs

mg sin θ = mg μs cos θ

tan θ = μs

θ = atan μs

θ = atan 0.38

θ = 21°

Part 3

Sum the forces in the parallel direction (this time, acceleration is not 0).

∑F = ma

mg sin θ − F = ma

mg sin θ − N μk = ma

mg sin θ − mg μk cos θ = ma

a = g (sin θ − μk cos θ)

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 24° − 0.32 cos 24°)

a = 1.1 m/s²

What are the<br>2 factors that<br>increase the<br>electric force<br>between<br>objects?​
harkovskaia [24]

The two factors that affect the electric force are the charges and the separation between the objects

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two objects is given by Coulomb's law:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the separation between the two objects

Looking at the equation, we see that the electric force between objects depends on two factors:

  • The charges of the objects: the force is directly proportional to the product of the two charges, therefore the greater the charges, the stronger the force
  • The distance between the two objects: the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, therefore the smaller the distance between the objects, the stronger the force
