The minimum coefficient of static friction that needed for cylinder to roll down without slipping is \mu_s= \frac{tan\theta}{3}

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

A cylinder of radius R, length L, and mass M is released from rest on a slope inclined at angle θ. It is oriented to roll straight down the slope. If the slope were frictionless, the cylinder would slide down the slope without rotating. What minimum coefficient of static friction is needed for the cylinder to roll down without slipping?

Given: radius R, length L, angle θ, and mass  M

We need to calcuate the minimum static friction coefficient. It is useful so the cylinder will roll without slipping down the incline. The cylinder is also released from rest. As the cylinder is rolling, we have to consider the moment of inertia. Rolling of cylinder is happened due to the friction force

By applying Newton law of motion

F = M a\\\tau = I \alpha\\\tau = I \frac{a}{R} \\\tau = \frac{1}{2} M R^2 \frac{a}{R}

From diagram

Mg sin\theta - f_{fr} = Ma\\f_{fr} = \mu_s N\\f_{fr} = \mu_s Mg cos \theta\\a = g sin \theta -  \mu_s cos \theta

Then also

\tau = f_{fr} R\\f_{fr} = \frac{Ma}{2} \\\mu_s Mg cos \theta = \frac{Mg (sin\theta - \mu_s cos \theta)}{2} \\\frac{3}{2} \mu_s cos\theta = \frac{sin\theta}{2}\\  \mu_s = \frac{tan\theta}{3}

Answer:

\mu_s=\frac{1}{3}\tan \theta

Explanation:

Let the minimum coefficient of static friction be \mu_s.

Given:

Mass of the cylinder = M

Radius of the cylinder = R

Length of the cylinder = L

Angle of inclination = \theta

Initial velocity of the cylinder (Released from rest) = 0

Since, the cylinder is translating and rolling down the incline, it has both translational and rotational motion. So, we need to consider the effect of moment of Inertia also.

We know that, for a rolling object, torque acting on it is given as the product of moment of inertia and its angular acceleration. So,

\tau =I\alpha

Now, angular acceleration is given as:

\alpha = \frac{a}{R}\\Where, a\rightarrow \textrm{linear acceleration of the cylinder}

Also, moment of inertia for a cylinder is given as:

I=\frac{MR^2}{2}

Therefore, the torque acting on the cylinder can be rewritten as:

\tau = \frac{MR^2}{2}\times \frac{a}{R}=\frac{MRa}{2}------ 1

Consider the free body diagram of the cylinder on the incline. The forces acting along the incline are mg\sin \theta\ and\ f. The net force acting along the incline is given as:

F_{net}=Mg\sin \theta-f\\But,\ f=\mu_s N\\So, F_{net}=Mg\sin \theta -\mu_s N-------- 2

Now, consider the forces acting perpendicular to the incline. As there is no motion in the perpendicular direction, net force is zero.

So, N=Mg\cos \theta

Plugging in N=Mg\cos \theta in equation (2), we get

F_{net}=Mg\sin \theta -\mu_s Mg\cos \theta\\F_{net}=Mg(\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta)--------------3

Now, as per Newton's second law,

F_{net}=Ma\\Mg(\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta)=Ma\\\therefore a=g(\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta)------4

Now, torque acting on the cylinder is provided by the frictional force and is given as the product of frictional force and radius of the cylinder.

\tau=fR\\\frac{MRa}{2}=\mu_sMg\cos \theta\times  R\\\\a=2\times \mu_sg\cos \theta\\\\But, a=g(\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta)\\\\\therefore g(\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta)=2\times \mu_sg\cos \theta\\\\\sin \theta-\mu_s \cos \theta=2\mu_s\cos \theta\\\\\sin \theta=2\mu_s\cos \theta+\mu_s\cos \theta\\\\\sin \theta=3\mu_s \cos \theta\\\\\mu_s=\frac{\sin \theta}{3\cos \theta}\\\\\mu_s=\frac{1}{3}\tan \theta............(\because \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}=\tan \theta)

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of static friction needed for the cylinder to roll down without slipping is given as:

\mu_s=\frac{1}{3}\tan \theta

A stone dropped in a pond sends out a circular ripple whose radius increases at a constant rate of 4 ft/sec. After 12 seconds, h
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

After 12 seconds, the area enclosed by the ripple will be increasing rapidly at the rate of 1206.528 ft²/sec

Explanation:

Area of a circle = πr²

where;

r is the circle radius

Differentiate the area with respect to time.

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}

dr/dt = 4 ft/sec

after 12 seconds, the radius becomes = \frac{dr}{dt} X 12 = 4 \frac{ft}{sec}  X 12 sec = 48 ft

To obtain how rapidly is the area enclosed by the ripple increasing after 12 seconds, we calculate dA/dt

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\pi (48)(4)

    dA/dt = 1206.528 ft²/sec

Therefore, after 12 seconds, the area enclosed by the ripple will be increasing rapidly at the rate of 1206.528 ft²/sec

Most reactive non-metals in order?
kompoz [17]
Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.   <span>

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

(c) time required to travel = 8 sec

Explanation:

We have given the final position = -10 m on x axis

And the initial position =10 m

So total distance = 10-(-10)=20 m

The speed is given as 2.5 m/sec

We have tof ind the time required by the person to travel

Time is given by t=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{20}{2.5}=8 sec

So the option (c) is correct option

solong [7]

Answer: A plz brainliest me

An isotope is one of two or more forms of the same chemical element. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.
