Answer:

a = 4.9(1 - sinθ - 0.4cosθ)

Explanation:

Really not possible without a complete setup.

I will ASSUME that this an Atwood machine with two masses (m) connected by an ideal rope passing over an ideal pulley. One mass hangs freely and the other is on a slope of angle θ to the horizontal with coefficient of friction μ. Gravity is g

                                     F = ma

mg - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = (m + m)a

      mg(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = 2ma

      ½g(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = a

maximum acceleration is about 2.94 m/s² when θ = 0

acceleration will be zero when θ is greater than about 46.4°

When friction occurs, which of the following types of energy is produced?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

heat energy

Explanation:

Friction causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster, so they have more energy. This gives them a higher temperature, and they feel warmer.

A 15kg boulder is moved from the Earth to the Moon. Explain what happens to the mass and weight of the boulder.​
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The mass of the boulder remains constant, while its weight decreases with respect to the value of gravitational force on the moon.

Explanation:

The mass of the boulder = 15 kg

On the earth, its mass remains 15 kg. But its weight is;

weight = m x g

           = 15 x 9.8

           = 147 N

The boulder's weight on the earth is 147 N.

When transferred to the moon, the mass remains constant i.e 15 kg. But its weight decreases due to a change in the value of acceleration due to gravity on the moon. Thus, the boulder becomes lighter in weight.

During spring tide, the sun and moon are aligned. Which statement below best describes the tidal range during a spring tide?
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A ) The smallest tidal ranges are less than 1 m (3 feet). The highest tides, called spring tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon are lined up in a row. This happens every two weeks during a new moon or full moon. Smaller tides, called neap tides, are formed when the earth, sun and moon form a right angle.

C ) The most extreme tidal range occurs during spring tides, when the gravitational forces of both the Moon and Sun are aligned (syzygy), reinforcing each other in the same direction (new moon) or in opposite directions (full moon).
