A student wants to determine the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction between a box and a plank. She places the

box on the plank and gradually raises one end of the plank. When the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 30o , the box starts to slip and slides 2.5 m down the plank in 4.0 s. Calculate the coefficients of friction.

Answer:

the coefficients of static friction is 0.577

the coefficients of fkinetic friction is 0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

given information

θ = 30°

S = 2.5 m

t = 4 s

- Static friction

F - F(friction) = 0

W sin θ = μs W cos θ  

μs = sin θ/ cosθ

   = tan θ

   = tan 30°

   = 0.577

- kinetic friction

S = v_{0} t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

v_{0} t = 0

S = \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

a = \frac{2S}{T^{2} } = \frac{2 x 2.5}{4^{2} }

  = 0.3 m/s^{2}

F - F(friction) = m a

W sin θ - μ W cos θ  = m a

mg sin θ - μk mg cos θ  = m a

g sin θ - μk g cos θ  = a

μk = g sin θ  - a / g cos θ

    = 9.8 sin 30° - 0.3 / 9.8 cos 30°

    = 0.54

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

15 equation: 195=105+6x

Step-by-step explanation:

he starts out with 105 and the rate of change is 6x so to get the answer u wanna make and equation (195=105+6x) then you would subtract the 105

195=105+6x

-105  -105

---------------------

90=0 +6x

then u would divide by 6

90/6=6x/6

x=15

How much money should a student place in a time deposit in a bank that pays 1.1% compounded annually so that he will have Php 20
STatiana [176]

Let us say that:<span>
   P = present value
   F = future value
    i = interest rate
   n = period

P = F / [ (1 + i ) ^n ]
P = 200000 / [ (1 + 0.011) ^6 ]
P = 187293.65

<span>Therefore the student must put up Php 187,293.65</span></span>

suppose a farmer encloses a rectangular region of a land next to a river. fencing will be used on 3 sieds, and none is needed al
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Dimensions :

x (the longer side, only one side with fence )   =  90  ft

y ( the shorter side two sides with fence )        =  45  ft

Total fence used   45 * 2  +  90    =  180 ft

A(max)  =  

Step-by-step explanation: If a farmer has 180 ft of fencing to encloses a rectangular area with fence in three sides and the river on one side, the farmer surely wants to have a maximum enclosed area.

Lets call "x" one the longer side  ( only one of the longer side of the rectangle will have fence, the other will be along the river and won´t need fence. "y" will be the shorter side

Then we have:

P = perimeter  =  180  =  2y  +  x        ⇒   y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2        (1)

And   A (r)   =  x * y

A(x)   =  x  *  ( 180 - x ) /2       ⇒   A(x)   = (180/2) *x   -  x² / 2

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation :

A´(x)   =  90   -  x    

Then if    A´(x)   =  0   ⇒        90   -  x    =  0     ⇒   x  =  90 ft

and from :       y  =  ( 180 - x )  / 2     ⇒     y  =  90/2

y  =  45  ft

And

A(max)  =  90 * 45    =  4050  ft²
