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

A 65.0-kg woman steps off a 10.0-m diving platform and drops straight down into the water. 1) If she reaches a depth of 3.20 m,
timurjin [86]

Answer:

F=2627.6N

Explanation:

The work done by this resistive force while traveling a distance <em>d</em> underwater would be:

W=F.d=-Fd

where the minus sign appears because the force is upwards and the displacement downwards.

This work is equal to the change of mechanical energy. At the diving plataform and underwater, when she stops moving, the woman has no kinetic energy, so all can be written in terms of her total change of gravitational potential energy:

W=\Delta E=U_f-U_i=mgh_f-mgh_i=mg(h_f-h_i)

Putting all together:

F=-\frac{W}{d}=-\frac{mg(h_f-h_i)}{d}=-\frac{(65kg)(9.8m/s^2)(-3.2m-10m)}{3.2m}=2627.6N

A 55 kg track and field athlete has an average power output of 5.4 kW during the 200 meter dash. How quickly did she finish the
olga_2 [115]

The time taken for the athlete to finish the race is 20 s (Option A)

<h3>What is power? </h3>

Power is simply defined as the rate at which work is done. It can be expressed mathematically as

Power (P) = work (W) / time (t)

But

Work = weight × distance

Therefore,

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

<h3>How to determine the time </h3>
  • Mass (m) = 55 Kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Weight = mg = 55 × 9.8 = 539 N
  • Power (P) = 5.4 KW = 5.4 × 1000 = 5400 W
  • Distance (d) = 200 m
  • Time (t) =?

Power = (weight × distance ) / time

5400 = (539 × 200) / t

5400 = 107800 / t

Cross multiply

5400 × t = 107800

Divide both side by 5400

t = 107800 / 5400

t = 20 s
