A 6 kg block is released from rest at the top of an incline, as shown above, and slides to the bottom. The incline is 1.97 m lon

g, is inclined at an angle of 29.4°, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is 0.21.
a. Calculate the normal force the incline puts on the block.

The net force on the block acting perpendicular to the incline is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> cos(29.4°) = 0

where <em>n</em> is the magnitude of the normal force and <em>w</em> = <em>m g</em> is the weight of the block.

The equation itself comes from splitting up the forces acting on the block into components pointing parallel or perpendicular to the incline. The only forces acting on the block in the perpendicular direction are the normal force and the perpendicular component of the block's weight.

Solve for <em>n</em> :

<em>n</em> = <em>m g</em> cos(29.4°)

<em>n</em> = (6 kg) (9.80 m/s²) cos(29.4°)

<em>n</em> ≈ 51.2 N

How does the size of a planet affected the amount and type of gas in its atmosphere
dalvyx [7]
There are lots of variables that directly and indirectly contribute to the presence of gas on a surface
if the size of a planet is relatively small it will in turn be that of a smaller area which results in the less area to be covered for gas which basically means higher presence
I can go in depth more but I don't think that would be necessary all you need to know is this ...based on the size and gas will in turn be parallel to it's conformity

Some people say you can get HIV from insect bites. True or false? Why?
Murljashka [212]
The answer is False because HIV spreads through contact between HIV-infected blood or blood-contaminated body fluids and broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes. Deep, open-mouth kissing if both partners have sores or bleeding gums and blood from the HIV-positive partner enters the HIV-negative partner's bloodstream.
