A sled is moving down a steep hill. The mass of the sled is 50 kg and the net force acting on it is 20 N. What must be done to f
amid [387]

You need to first measure the angle of descent, i.e. the angle the hill makes with the ground. Then identify the forces acting on the sled, split them up into horizontal and vertical components, or into components that are parallel and perpendicular to the hill, and use Newton's second law to determine the components of the sled's acceleration vector.

There are at least 2 forces acting on the sled:

• its weight, pointing downward with magnitude <em>W</em> = <em>m g</em>

• the normal force, pointing perpendicular to the hill and away from the ground with mag. <em>N</em>

The question doesn't specify, but there might also be friction to consider, indicated in the attachment by the vector <em>F</em> pointing parallel to the slope of the hill and opposing the direction of the sled's motion with mag. <em>F</em>.

Splitting up the forces into parallel/perpendicular components is less work. By Newton's second law, the net force (denoted with ∑ or "sigma" here) in a particular direction is equal to the mass of the sled times its acceleration in that direction:

∑ (//) = <em>W</em> (//) = <em>m</em> <em>a</em> (//)

∑ (⟂) = <em>W</em> (⟂) + <em>N</em> = <em>m </em><em>a</em> (⟂)

where, for instance, <em>W</em> (//) denotes the component of the sled's weight in the direction parallel to the hill, while <em>a</em> (⟂) denotes the component of the sled's acceleration perpendicular to the hill. If there is friction, you need to add -<em>F</em> to the first equation.

If the hill makes an angle of <em>θ</em> with flat ground, then <em>W</em> makes the same angle with the hill so that

<em>W</em> (//) = -<em>m g </em>sin(<em>θ</em>)

<em>W</em> (⟂) = -<em>m g</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)

So we have

<em>-m g </em>sin(<em>θ</em>) = <em>m</em> <em>a</em> (//)   →   <em>a</em> (//) = -<em>g </em>sin(<em>θ</em>)

<em>-m g</em> cos(<em>θ</em>) + <em>N</em> = <em>m </em><em>a</em> (⟂)   →   <em>a</em> (⟂) = 0

where the last equality follows from the fact that the normal force exactly opposes the perpendicular component of the weight. This is because the sled is moving along the slope of the hill, and not into the air or into the ground.

Then the acceleration vector is

<em>a</em> = <em>a</em> (//)

with magnitude

||<em>a</em>|| = <em>a</em> = <em>g </em>sin(<em>θ</em>).

The stone, which weighs 400 g, is thrown upwards at a speed of 20 m / s. Climbed to a height of 12 m. Determine: what is equal t
maxonik [38]

Given that,

Mass of the stone, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial speed, u = 20 m/s

It is climbed to a height of 12 m.

To find,

The work done by the resistance force.

Solution,

Let v is the final speed. It can be calculated by using the conservation of energy.

v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 12} \\\\v=15.33\ m/s

Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. It can be given as follows :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.4\times (15.33^2-20^2)\\\\=-32.99\ J

So, the required work done is 32.99 J.

What is the final speed of a 60 kg boulder dropped from a 111 meter cliff
saveliy_v [14]

After rolling off the edge of the cliff and falling ' M ' meters down,
the speed of the boulder is

       Square root of ( 19.6 M ) .

If M=111 meters, then the speed is <em>46.64 meters per second</em>.

We have known for roughly 500 years that if there's no air resistance,
the mass of the falling object makes no difference, and all objects fall
with the same acceleration, speed, time to splat, etc.
