a father pulls his young daughter on a sled (where the combined mass of his daughter and the sled are 40 kg) with a constant vel

ocity up a snowy hill that is inclined at 14 to the horizontal. a) if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled's runners and the snow is 0.15, what is the tension force of the rope on which the father pulls

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told what angle the pull rope is to any other reference. That could make a huge difference in the result.

If we ASSUME that the rope pulls parallel to the slope

Then , if T is rope tension

                                  F = ma

T - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = m(0)

                                 T = mg(sinθ + μcosθ)

                                 T = 40(9.8)(sin14 + 0.15cos14)

                                 T = 151.88677... 150 N

If the rope pulls the sled at a positive angle relative to the slope, As one might expect from an adult holding the rope, then the tension will be increased because only the Tension portion parallel to the slope causes motion in that direction, but will be decreased because the Normal force, and therefore the friction force, of the slope on the sled will be decreased.

How does 3rd class lever make our work easier
sineoko [7]
In a third class lever, the effort is located between the load and the fulcrum. If the fulcrum is closer to the load, then less effort is needed to move the load. If the fulcrum is closer to the effort, then the load will move a greater distance. ... These levers are useful for making precise movements.

A 15 n force directed to the west acts on an object for 3.0 seconds, what is the change in momentum of the object?
pickupchik [31]
By definition we have that
 force=dP/dt,
 where
 p is momentum
 so
 <span>momentum is force*time
 p= 15*3 = 45 Ns , west.
 </span><span>the change in momentum of the object is 45 N.s</span>

Vector A points along the + y axis and a magnitude of 100.0 units. Vector B points at an angle of 60.0 degrees above the +x axis
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

vector quantities are resolved into their component form (along the x and y-axis) before adding them. Let us assume that two vectors are

^

j

and

→

b

=
