what would have happened if there had been satellites during the time of the 1900 galveston hurricane?

The satellites most likely would’ve helped prevent a lot of deaths, and be able to use the information to warn the people in the area before it hit.

A block is at rest on the incline shown in the gure. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.6 and 0.51, respec- t

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Normal reaction force on the block while it is at rest on the inclined plane is given as

$F_n = mgcos\theta$

here we know that

m = 46 kg

$\theta = 29^o$

now we will have

$F_n = 46*9.8*cos29 = 394.3 N$

now the limiting friction or maximum value of static friction on the block will be given as

$F_s = \mu_s * F_n$

$F_s = 0.6 * 394.3 = 236.56 N$

Above value is the maximum value of force at which block will not slide

Now the weight of the block which is parallel to inclined plane is given as

$F_{||} = mg sin\theta$

here we know that

$F_{||} = 46*9.8 sin29 = 218.55 N$

Now since the weight of the block here is less than the value of limiting friction force and also the block is at rest then the frictional force on the block is static friction and it will just counter balance the weight of the block along the inclined plane.

So here <u>friction force on the given block will be same as its component on weight which is 218.55 N</u>

A ball of mass 0.6 kg flies through the air at low speed, so that air resistance is negligible. What is the net force acting on

Anettt [7]

To solve this problem we will apply Newton's second law. The second law says that mass by acceleration is equivalent to the Force exerted on a body. Mathematically this

$F = ma$
