How do you find the weight of an object on an incline in physics?​

Nezavi [6.7K]2 years ago

Refers to the attachment for the answer.

Let us assume that the object of mass m is kept on the Inclined plane.

Now, there will act one force called as Component of the Weight along the Incline which is given by the Relation,

mgsinθ,

where θ is the angle which the incline makes with the surface or Angle of the Incline.

Now, If there will be no friction and the object is moving along the incline

Force = mgsinθ

⇒ ma = mgsinθ

∴ a = gsinθ

This case is valid when the angle of the Incline is greater than the angle of repose, which means the object is moving with no cause or acing of the force.

But sometimes when the object does not move without the action of force, I mean that the angle of repose is greater than the angle of the incline, then we need to apply the force so that the object can move then,

Force applied = mgsinθ

∴ a = gsinθ

It will change the cases when friction is involved.

Now, For velocity, It can be found by using the equation of Motions. Time, Distance or initial velocity, etc must be given if the question will be asked related to the velocity. So by using them, you can find that.

A U-shaped tube open to the air at both ends contains some mercury. A quantity of water is carefully poured into the left arm of
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) P=2450\ Pa

b) \delta h=23.162\ cm

Explanation:

Given:

height of water in one arm of the u-tube, h_w=25\ cm=0.25\ m

a)

Gauge pressure at the water-mercury interface,:

P=\rho_w.g.h_w

we've the density of the water =1000\ kg.m^{-3}

P=1000\times 9.8\times 0.25

P=2450\ Pa

b)

Now the same pressure is balanced by the mercury column in the other arm of the tube:

\rho_w.g.h_w=\rho_m.g.h_m

1000\times 9.8\times 0.25=13600\times 9.8\times h_m

h_m=0.01838\ m=1.838\ cm

<u>Now the difference in the column is :</u>

\delta h=h_w-h_m

\delta h=25-1.838

\delta h=23.162\ cm

A car of mass 1200 kg, moving with a speed of 72 mph on a highway,
Keith_Richards [23]

momentum(p) = mass(m) x velocity(v)

KE = kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

a.

the ratio of the momentum of the SUV to that of the car

\tt \dfrac{mv}{1.5m\dfrac{2}{3}v }=1:1

b.  the ratio of the KE of the SUV to that of the car

\tt \dfrac{1/2\times mv^2}{1/2\times 1.5m\times (\dfrac{2}{3}v )^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{1.5m\dfrac{4}{6}v^2 }=1:1
