i) The frictional force on a sliding body on a plane is always directed at the angle normal to the inclination of the plane.
ii) The Dynamic equilibrium is a condition of a moving body with constant velocity.
iii) Deformation of a rigid body is possible especially when the applied force is very large.
Question 6: A mass of 0.2kg is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 5N/m. What should be the maximum value of the friction coefficient (b) for underdamping motion
A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.4 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 5.0 m to one side of the point directly under the ball. When a button is pressed, the ball drops and, simultaneously, the cannon fires a 25 g plastic ball. The two balls collide 1.2 m above the floor.
What was the launch speed of the plastic ball?
