As thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement. As thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement. As thermal energy increases, there is less particle movement.

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>).

Two ropes are attached to either side of a 100.0 kg wagon as shown below. The rope on the right is pulled at an angle 40.0° rela
NikAS [45]

The acceleration of the wagon is found by applying Newton's Second Law of motion.

1. The responses for question 1 are;

  • x-component of the tension in the rope on the right is approximately <u>91.93 N</u>
  • y-component of the tension in the rope on the right is approximately <u>71.135 N</u>
  • x-component of the tension in the rope on the left is -80.0 N
  • y-component of the tension in the rope on the left is 0

2. The net force in the x-direction is approximately <u>11.93 N</u>

3. The net acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction is approximately <u>0.1193 m/s²</u>.

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

Mass of the wagon, m = 100.0 kg

Angle of inclination to the horizontal of the rope to the right, θ = 40.0°

Tension in the rope on the right = 120.0 N

Direction in which the rope on the left is pulled = To the west

Tension in the rope on the left = 80.0 N

1. The <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> component of the tension in the rope on the right are;

x-component = 120.0 N × cos(40.0°) ≈ <u>91.93 N</u>

y-component = 120.0 N × sin(40.0°) ≈ <u>77.135 N</u>

The <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> component of the tension in the rope on the left are;

x-component = 80.0 N × cos(180°) = <u>-80.0 N</u>

y-component = 80.0 N × sin(180°) = <u>0.0 N</u>

2. The net force in the horizontal direction, Fₓ, is found as follows;

Fₓ = The x-component of the rope on the left + The x-component of the rope on the right

Which gives;

Fₓ = 91.93 N - 80.0 N = <u>11.93 N</u>

3. The net acceleration of the block is given as follows;

According to Newton's Second Law of motion, we have;

Force in the horizontal direction, Fₓ = Mass of wagon, m × Acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction, aₓ

Fₓ = m × aₓ

Therefore;

\displaystyle a_x = \frac{F_x}{m}  \approx \frac{11.93 \, N}{100.0 \, kg} = \mathbf{0.1193 \ m/s^2}

  • The acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction, aₓ ≈ <u>0.1193 m/s²</u>.

How are longitudinal and transverse waves different?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A longitudinal wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the wave. On the other hand, a transverse wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is at a right angle to the wave direction.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

12.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of diver  = 77kg

Height of jump  = 8.18m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply the motion equation below:

             v²   = u²  + 2gH

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

       v² = 0²  +  2 x 9.8 x 8.18

     v  = 12.7m/s
