- 米 a A long straight wire and a rectangular loop lie in the same plane, as shown in the the figure above, where 11 = 6 A, 12 = 4 A, a = 15 cm, b = 30 cm, c = 30 cm. Find the net force on the loop due to the long wire. N (positive if to the right) Hint: Force on top side and force on bottom side cancel out.arrow_forwardA spool rests on a horizontal, frictionless surface and you are looking at it from the top view (appears as a circle). In the following questions, the spool is pulled by tension forces that are applied at various locations, directions, and radii. To solve each problem, draw the spool as a circle on a piece of paper and then draw the given tension vectors. REMEMBER that the direction UPWARD points to the TOP of the page and DOWNWARD points to the BOTTOM of the page. re 1 The resulting TORQUE will be either OUT OF the page (CCW motion, POSITIVE torque) or INTO the page (CW motion, NEGATIVE torque). nen A rope of tension 1T applies a force at radius 2R on the spool. It is located at 6 o'clock and pulls to ence the right. What is the resulting torque in terms of RT? Remember to check whether the torque is positive (results in CCW motion) or negative (results in CW motion). RT Submit Answer Tries 0/3 A rope of tension 4T applies a force at radius 4R on the spool. It is located at 9 o'clock…arrow_forwardProblem 10 : A cord connected at one end to a block which can slide on an inclined plane has its other end wrapped around a cylinder resting in a depression at the top of the plane as shown in (Figure 1). Part A Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume there is no friction. Express your answer using two significant figures. Part B Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume the coefficient of friction between all surfaces is μ = 0.0280. Since the block is much lighter than the cylinder, ignore tension in the string when calculating the normal force on the cylinder. Do not ignore tension in the string when calculating the net torque (including friction) on the cylinder.arrow_forward
- To get a toolbox up an inclined slope, a student installs a pulley system as in the picture shown. The student uses their body weight to apply a force. The student weighs 81.9kg, and the toolbox weighs 16.3kg. The angle of the slope is 31.2° above the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the box and the slope is 0.227. Once the student gets the box moving, what will its acceleration be?

Two figures show a side view of a crate positioned upon a horizontal surface. Figure (a): An arrow pointing downward and to the right is labeled vector F and forms an angle of 20° below the horizontal as it approaches the upper left edge of the crate. Figure (b): An arrow pointing upward and to the right is labeled vector F and forms an angle of 20° above the horizontal as it extends from the upper right edge of the crate. (a) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor? (b) If the 390-N force is instead pulling the block at an angle of 20.0° above the horizontal, as shown in the figure b, what will be the acceleration of the crate? Assume that the coefficient of friction is the same as that found in part (a).arrow_forwardA skate park is formed by two semicircles of radius R1 = 8.3 m and R2 = 1.0 m and a flat central part, as shown in the following figure. The flat part has a length L = 3.6 m. The semicircles are tangent to the horizontal in B and C and to the vertical in A and D. There is no friction in the curved parts and in the flat part the coefficient of kinetic friction is μC = 0.2. A block with mass m = 3.2 kg is dropped from A.
