When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some poi
eimsori [14]

Answer: The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but F_g  remains the same.

Explanation:

The situation is same as when a book is pushed with an increasing force on a table; When the force is low, book doesn't move, until that under a given force starts moving, and then it goes on movement even if the force decreases a bit.

The physical explanation for this, that friction force adopts any value needed to avoid to move the object, till a limit value is achieved, called static friction force, equal to the normal force times the static friction coefficient.

Once in movement, the kinetic friction coefficient replaces the static one , and  in general is lower than the static one, so the force diminishes.

In the case of the box sliding down the board, the force that tries to move the object down the board, is the component of the weight parallel to the board, that can be showed that being equal to the weight times the sinus of the angle of the board with the horizontal, as follows:

F_g = m g sin θ

When θ increases, F_g does the same, so friction force always has the same magnitude than F_g (but opposite direction) so the box doesn't move, till that θ takes a value that produces a F_g equal to static friction force.

Beyond this limit angle, F_g (remaining the same for a given angle) is greater than the kinetic friction force, and the box slides.

In the limit, when θ=90º, sin θ =1⇒ F_g = mg, so the object is in free fall.

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
jarptica [38.1K]

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

             Speed  =  (original speed) + (gravity  x  falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

                         =       (0)            + (9.8 m/s²  x  3 sec)

                       Velocity  =  29.4 m/s downward .

A plane took 7 hours to travel 2020 km. For the first 4 hours,
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

-6.6 km/h

Explanation:

In 7hr plane travelled 2020km;

For the first 4hr the average speed was 310km/h;

d=st, s=d/t;

Distance covered in first 4h is d = 310km/h×4h = 1240km;

See the image attached for further solution

Two blocks A and B with mA = 2.6 kg and mB = 0.81 kg are connected by a string of negligible mass. They rest on a frictionless h
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Mass of block A (m_a)=2.6 kg

Mass of block B (m_b)=0.81 kg

Force of 6.5 N is applied on Block A

Force on Block A is F, Tension

thus

F-T=m_a\times a -----1

where a=acceleration of the system

For Block B

T=m_b\times a -----2

F=m_b\times a+m_a\times a

F=\left ( m_a+m_b\right )a

F=\left ( 2.6+0.81\right )a

a=\frac{6.5}{3.41}

a=1.96 m/s^2

T=0.81\times 1.96=1.54 N
