Question
A plastic disc is flicked up a sloping board. It has an initial speed of 1.6 ms-1, but gradually slows down. The board is inclined at 18 degrees to the horizontal, and when the disc is flicked it's centre is 0.3m from the top of the board. The coefficient of sliding friction between the disc and the board is 0.05. The magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 ms-2.
A. State the 3 forces acting on the disc while it is sliding up the board and draw a force diagram. Label each force and indicate directions.
B. Find expressions for the component forms of the 3 forces in terms of unknown magnitudes
C. Write down the vector equation obtained by applying Newton's second law of motion to the disc. Find the acceleration to 2 s.f.
D. Determine whether the disc falls off the top of the board

Give your answer in units of m/sarrow_forwardA heavy crate is suspended from two ropes as it is lowered from a high shelf to the floor at a constant speed. One of the ropes makes an angle of 28.2 degrees with respect to the vertical and has a tension of 950 N, while the other makes an angle of 33.7 with respect to the vertical. What is the crate's mass in kg?arrow_forwardYou have put a sonar device at the top of a frictionless inclined plane. That device allows you to measure the distance an object is from the device, as well as the speed and the acceleration of that object. If we decide that the origin (h = 0) is at the sonar device, we want to know what the height change is as we slide down the incline. For an angle below the horizontal of 9.74°, we see that our object has slid a distance 0.54 m, as measured along the incline itself. - Calculate the height change and report your answer as a negative number. (This value would be useful for calculating the change in gravitational potential energy, as we will do in the lab.) h=o earrow_forward
