Answer:

a = 4.72 m/s²  

Explanation:

given,

mass of the box (m)= 6 Kg

angle of inclination (θ) = 39°

coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.19

magnitude of acceleration = ?

box is sliding downward so,

F - f = m a                        

f is the friction force

m g sinθ - μ N = ma                        

m g sinθ - μ m g cos θ = ma            

a = g sinθ - μ g cos θ                    

a = 9.8 x sin 39° - 0.19 x 9.8 x cos 39°

a = 4.72 m/s²                                      

the magnitude of acceleration of the box down the slope is a = 4.72 m/s²

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

v_f = 16.6 m/s

Explanation:

As we know by force equation that force along the inclined planed due to gravity is given as

F_g = mg sin\theta

so the acceleration due to gravity along the plane is given as

a = \frac{F_g}{m}

now we have

a = g sin\theta

a = (9.81 sin4.0)

a = 0.68 m/s^2

now we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 9.2^2 = 2(0.68)(140)

v_f = 16.6 m/s

A 200 g hockey puck is launched up a metal ramp that is inclined at a 30° angle. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

H=1020.12m

Explanation:

From a balance of energy:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*H=-Ff*d   where H is the height it reached, d is the distance it traveled along the ramp and Ff = μk*N.

The relation between H and d is given by:

H = d*sin(30)   Replace this into our previous equation:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*d*sin(30)=-\mu_k*N*d

From a sum of forces:

N -mg*cos(30) = 0    =>  N = mg*cos(30)   Replacing this:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*d*sin(30)=-\mu_k*mg*cos(30)*d   Now we can solve for d:

d = 2040.23m

Thus H = 1020.12m

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis varies with time according to x(t) = 5.0t^2 − 4.0t^3 m. Find (a) the velocity
KengaRu [80]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) v(t) = [10.0t - 12.0t²] m/s  and a(t) = [10.0 - 24.0t ] m/s² respectively

(b) -28.0m/s and -38.0m/s² respectively

(c) 0.83s

(d) 0.83s

(e) x(t)  = 1.1573 m           [where t = 0.83s]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The position equation is given by;

x(t) = 5.0t² - 4.0t³ m           --------------------(i)

(a) Since velocity is the time rate of change of position, the velocity, v(t), of the particle as a function of time is calculated by finding the derivative of equation (i) as follows;

v(t) = dx(t) / dt = \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt} [ 5.0t² - 4.0t³ ]

v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t²     --------------------------------(ii)

Therefore, the velocity as a function of time is v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t² m/s

Also, since acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity, the acceleration, a(t), of the particle as a function of time is calculated by finding the derivative of equation (ii) as follows;

a(t) = dx(t) / dt = \frac{dv}{dt} =  \frac{d}{dt} [ 10.0t - 12.0t² ]

a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t             --------------------------------(iii)

Therefore, the acceleration as a function of time is a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t m/s²

(b) To calculate the velocity at time t = 2.0s, substitute the value of t = 2.0 into equation (ii) as follows;

=> v(t) =  10.0t - 12.0t²

=> v(2.0) = 10.0(2) - 12.0(2)²

=> v(2.0) = 20.0 - 48.0

=> v(2.0) = -28.0m/s

Also, to calculate the acceleration at time t = 2.0s, substitute the value of t = 2.0 into equation (iii) as follows;

=> a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t

=> a(2.0) = 10.0 - 24.0(2)

=> a(2.0) = 10.0 - 48.0

=> a(2.0) = -38.0 m/s²

Therefore, the velocity and acceleration at t = 2.0s are respectively -28.0m/s and -38.0m/s²

(c) The time at which the position is maximum is the time at which there is no change in position or the change in position is zero. i.e dx / dt = 0. It also means the time at which the velocity is zero. (since velocity is dx / dt)

Therefore, substitute v = 0 into equation (ii) and solve for t as follows;

=> v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t²

=> 0 = 10.0t - 12.0t²

=> 0 = ( 10.0 - 12.0t ) t

=> t = 0            or             10.0 - 12.0t = 0

=> t = 0            or             10.0 = 12.0t

=> t = 0            or             t = 10.0 / 12.0

=> t = 0            or             t = 0.83s

At t=0 or t = 0.83s, the position of the particle will be maximum.

To get the more correct answer, substitute t = 0 and t = 0.83 into equation (i) as follows;

<em>Substitute t = 0 into equation (i)</em>

x(t) = 5.0(0)² - 4.0(0)³ = 0

At t = 0; x = 0

<em>Substitute t = 0.83s into equation (i)</em>

x(t) = 5.0(0.83)² - 4.0(0.83)³

x(t) = 5.0(0.6889) - 4.0(0.5718)

x(t) = 3.4445 - 2.2872

x(t)  = 1.1573 m

At t = 0.83; x = 1.1573 m

Therefore, since the value of x at t = 0.83s is 1.1573m is greater than the value of x at t = 0 which is 0m, then the time at which the position is at maximum is 0.83s

(d) The velocity will be zero when the position is maximum. That means that, it will take the same time calculated in (c) above for the velocity to be zero. i.e t = 0.83s

(e) The maximum position function is found when t = 0.83s as shown in (c) above;

Substitute t = 0.83s into equation (i)

x(t) = 5.0(0.83)² - 4.0(0.83)³

x(t) = 5.0(0.6889) - 4.0(0.5718)

x(t) = 3.4445 - 2.2872

x(t)  = 1.1573 m            [where t = 0.83s]

An electron is moving northward in a magnetic field. The magnetic force on the electron is toward the northeast. What is the dir
ira [324]

To solve this problem we will use the vector concept given by the cross product between two perpendicular vectors and which results in a vector perpendicular to these two. From the definition of the Magnetic Force we have to

\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times\vec{B})

From the property of cross product the magnetic force should point in the direction perpendicular to the plane containing the vectors v and B.

The direction of velocity is north, and the direction of the magnetic force is northeast.

This cannot be the case, as the direction of magnetic force is not perpendicular to the direction of velocity of the charge.

Therefore the correct option for the direction of the magnetic field is <em>"This situation cannot exist because of the relative orientations of the velocity and force vectors" </em>
