Answer:

Acceleration at its most basic is the act of increasing your running speed. From a standing start (or blocks), you explode into action. If you’re already running, you pick up the pace. Acceleration continues until you can no longer increase your speed, at which point you achieve maximum velocity (top-end speed). Acceleration seems simple enough. The plus means your increasing speed, the k=minus means your decreasing in speed.

Explanation:

F = ma

<u>Assuming</u> the 20° is angle θ measured to the horizontal

mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = ma

g(sinθ - μcosθ) = a

at constant velocity, a = 0

g(sinθ - μcosθ) = 0

sinθ - μcosθ = 0

sinθ = μcosθ

μ = sinθ/cosθ

μ = tanθ

μ = tan20

μ = 0.3639702342...

μ = 0.36

Answer:

Explanation:

Consider another special case in which the inclined plane is vertical (θ=π/2). In this case, for what value of m1 would the acceleration of the two blocks be equal to zero

F - Force

T = Tension

m = mass

a = acceleration

g = gravitational force

Let the given Normal on block 2 = N

and $N = m_2 g \cos \theta$
