- a block of mass m is initially at rest at the highest point of an inclined plane, which has a height of 6.8 m and has an angle of 0=16 degrees with respect to the horizontal. After it has been released, you perceived it to be moving at v=0.55 m/s a distance d after the end of the inclined plane as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane i sup=0.1 and the coefficient of friction on the horizontal surface its ur=0.2. a)what is the speed of the block, in meters per second, just after it leaves the inclined plane? b)Find the distance, d, in meters.arrow_forwardA block with a mass of 0.350kg is placed on a rough planar surface that is inclined 30° above the horizontal. The maximal coefficient of static friction 0.25 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.12. If the block is released from rest, what acceleration does it experience?arrow_forwardA large box of mass 11.4 kg sits on a ramp that makes an angle of 30.1 degrees with the horizontal. The surface of the ramp is rough and the coefficients of static and kinetic friction are given as 0.56 and 0,38, respectively. We exert a force up the ramp (parallel to the ramp surface) so that the box does not move. Calculate the maximum and the minimum magnitude of the force we can exert so that the box does not move. Enter the difference between the maximum and the minimum force values here: Fmax-Fmin (in Newtons). On your paper, show all the forces on free-body diagrams, clearly show your work, your derivation and calculations. Make sure to include your physics-based reasoning.arrow_forward
- A SEWAGE WORKER is inside a large underground aqueduct (diameter » a man’s height) of circular cross section, and so smooth that friction is negligibly small. He has a ladder which is the same length as the diameter of the aqueduct. He wishes to inspect something in the roof. He mounts the ladder and continues to climb until he reaches the other end.

What value of force is required to stop the block from sliding if: (a) the plane is frictionless, (b) the plane has coefficients of fractions static and kinetic equal to 0.20 and 0.18 respectively? What will the value of the force be if the velocity is constant and is directed upward parallel the incline?arrow_forwardA loaded penguin sled weighing 61.0 N rests on a plane inclined at angle θ = 23.0° to the horizontal (see the figure). Between the sled and the plane, the coefficient of static friction is 0.260, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.120. (a) What is the minimum magnitude of the force ?→�→, parallel to the plane, that will prevent the sled from slipping down the plane? (b) What is the minimum magnitude F that will start the sled moving up the plane? (c) What value of F is required to move the sled up the plane at constant velocityarrow_forward

If the coefficient of static friction is 0.50, the minimum force that can be applied parallel to the plane to hold the crate at rest is:arrow_forwardA package is projected 10 m upward on a 15 ° inclined plane so that it reaches the top of the plane with zero velocity.

A horizontal pull P is applied perpendicular to one of the vertical faces of the cube, at a distance 5.1 cm above the floor on the vertical midline of the cube face. The magnitude of P is gradually increased. (a) If μ is less than what value will the cube eventually begin to slide? (b) If u is greater than what value will the cube eventually begin to tip?
