Question
A block of weight w = 40.0 N sits on a frictionless inclined plane, which makes an angle θ = 24.0∘ with respect to the horizontal, as shown in the figure. (Figure 1) A force of magnitude F = 16.3 N , applied parallel to the incline, is just sufficient to pull the block up the plane at constant speed.

- In a circus performance, a monkey is strapped to a sled and both are given an initial speed of 5.14 m/s up a 22.1∘∘ inclined track. The combined mass of monkey and sled is 29 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and incline is 0.23. How far up the incline do the monkey and sled move?arrow_forwardThe ball launcher in a pinball machine has a spring that has a force constant of 50.0 N/m. The surface on which the ball moves is inclined 10.0° with respect to the horizontal. The spring is initially compressed 5.00 cm. Find the distance along the incline that the ball will go to (from the mean position of the spring), if the friction force = 0.1N. Mass of the ball = 20 gram.arrow_forwardWhat formula would I need to use to solve this problem: The rope of a swing is 2.90 m long. Calculate the angle from the vertical at which a 84.0 kg man must begin to swing in order to have the same KE at the bottom as a 1440 kg car moving at 1.41 m/s (3.15 mph). The decrease in gravitational PE is converted into KE as the man falls. This decrease in gravitational PE depends on the change in height.arrow_forward
- A crate of mass m is initially at rest at the highest point of an inclined plane which has a height of 5.28 m and makes an angle of A = 17.2° with respect to the horizontal. After it has been released, it is found to be traveling at v = 0.29 m/s a distance dafter the end of the inclined plane, as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is tp = 0.1, and the coefficient of friction on the horizontal surface is f4r = 0.2.arrow_forwardA person on an icy expedition is trying to lower a crate of mass m1 = 5.65 kg crate to the bottom of a steep ravine of height h2 21.8 m using a rope over a simple pulley. The person, who m2 frictionless %| weighs m2 = 60.9 kg, is being careful to lower the crate at a constant speed of 1.50 m/s. Unfortunately, when the crate reaches a point h = 12.1 meters above the ground, the person slips and the crate immediately accelerates toward the ground, dragging the hapless person across the ice and toward the edge of the cliff. h If we assume the ice is perfectly slick (that is, no friction between the person and the ice once he slips and falls down), at what speed will the crate hit the ground? Assume also that the rope is long enough to allow the crate to hit the ground before the crewman slides over the side of the cliff. speed: m/s At what speed will the person hit the bottom of the ravine?

The system is released from rest. The pulleys are massless. Static friction is not enough to hold it. The coefficient of kinetic friction is = 0.200 for both surfaces.
