Newton's second law we can find the acceleration of the ship is

      a = 0.074 m / s²

Given parameters

  • The very coefficient of kinematic friction = 0.08
  • The angle of the ramp tea = 5º

To find

  • The acceleration of the ship

Newton's second law states that the force varies linearly with the mass and acceleration of the body

          ∑ F = m a

The bold indicate vectors, where F is the sum of the forces, m the masses and the acceleration

The force is a vector magnitude, therefore it must be solved for each axis of a coordinate system, in the exerted of inclined ramps the coordinate system used has the x-axis in the direction of the ramp and the y-axis perpendicular to it, see attached.  In this cordinate system the weight of the body must be decomposed.

           cos 5 = W_y / W

           sin 5 = Wₓ / W

           W_y = W cos 5

           Wₓ = W sin 5

           

Let's solve Newton's second law for each axis

Y axis

       N - W_y = 0

       N = W_y = mg cos 5

X axis

       Wₓ - fr = m a            (1)

Friction force is the macroscopic result of contact interactions between two bodies and is described for solids by the expression

      fr = μ N

      fr = μ mg cos 5

we substitute in equation 1

      mg sin 5 - μ m g cos 5 = m a

      a = g (sin 5 - μ cos 5)

let's calculate

      a = 9.8 (sin 5 - 0.08 cos 5)

      a = 0.073 m / s²

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the acceleration of the ship is

      a = 0.073 m / s²

An object, initially at rest, is subject to an acceleration of 34 m/s^2. How long will it take for that object to reach 3400m ?
Norma-Jean [14]
Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad
a= 34 m/s^2
Vi = 0 m/s
d = 3400m

Vf = 480.83 m/s

a=v/t
t=v/a
t=480.83/34
t=14.142 s

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
