For a block to move down an inclined plane what force has to be the greatest?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

D) True. This is what creates the body weight

Explanation:

Let's write Newton's second law for this case. For inclined planes the reference system takes one axis parallel to the plane (x axis) and the other perpendicular to the plane (y axis)

X axis

Wx -fr = ma

Y Axis

N - Wy = 0

With trigonometry we can find the components of weight

sin θ = Wₓ / W

cos θ = $W_{y}$ / W

Wₓ = W sin θ

$W_{y}$ = W cos θ

W sin θ - fr = ma

From this expression as it indicates that the body is descending the force greater is the gravity that create the weight of the body

Let's examine the answers

A False This force does not apply because it is not a spring

B) False. It is balanced at all times with the component (Wy) of the weight

C) False. For there to be a rope, if it exists you should be less than the weight component for the block to lower

D) True. This is what creates the body weight

E) False. The cutting force occurs for force applied at a single point and gravity is applied at all points

Earth's neighboring galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy, is a distance of 2.54×107 light-years from Earth. If the lifetime of a human i

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

$0.0018833\ \text{m/s}$

Explanation:

$d$ = Distance of Andromeda Galaxy from Earth = $2.54\times 10^7\ \text{ly}$

$t$ = Time taken = $90\ \text{years}$

$c$ = Speed of light = $3\times 10^8\ \text{m/s}$

We have the relation

$t=t_o\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}\\\Rightarrow 90=2.54\times 10^7\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{90^2}{(2.54\times 10^7)^2}=1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}\\\Rightarrow 1-\dfrac{90^2}{(2.54\times 10^7)^2}=\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}\\\Rightarrow v=c\sqrt{1-\dfrac{90^2}{(2.54\times 10^7)^2}}$

$c-v=c(1-\sqrt{1-\dfrac{90^2}{(2.54\times 10^7)^2}})\\\Rightarrow c-v=3\times 10^8(1-\sqrt{1-\dfrac{90^2}{(2.54\times 10^7)^2}})\\\Rightarrow c-v=0.0018833\ \text{m/s}$
