An iron block of mass 10 kg rests on a wooden plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. It is found

I assume the 100 N force is a pulling force directed up the incline.

The net forces on the block acting parallel and perpendicular to the incline are

∑ F[para] = 100 N - F[friction] = 0

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg cos(30°) = 0

The friction in this case is the maximum static friction - the block is held at rest by static friction, and a minimum 100 N force is required to get the block to start sliding up the incline.

Then

F[friction] = 100 N

F[normal] = mg cos(30°) = (10 kg) (9.8 m/s²) cos(30°) ≈ 84.9 N

If µ is the coefficient of static friction, then

F[friction] = µ F[normal]

⇒   µ = (100 N) / (84.9 N) ≈ 1.2

Answer:

Explanation:

= √ 2 x 9.8 x 35

= 26.2 m / s

Speed of skier with parachute

net force downwards

mg - 200

= 60 x 9.8 -200

= 388 N

acceleration = 388 / 60

a = 6.47 m / s

v = √ 2ah

= √ 2 x 6.47 x 35

= 21.28 m / s

Refraction can occur only when light is
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

We have learned that refraction occurs as light passes across the boundary between two media. Refraction is merely one of several possible boundary behaviors by which a light wave could behave when it encounters a new medium or an obstacle in its path.

How are electromagnetic waves different from all other waves
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.
