After seeing some of the problems that you are asking help on, i feel really stupid, since mine seem so simple compared to yours. but here it is anyway
I am really having trouble with Friction here, how exactly do u get the coefficient of kinetic friction? I have 2 problems here:
1)A box slides down a 31.5° ramp with an acceleration of 1.28 m/s2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp.
Answer: ?
Any hints? or something? i know some of the formulas, but i don't really know what to do. tried many things, and it gives me a wrong answer
2)A 3.20 kg block starts from rest at the top of a 30.0° incline and slides 2.20 m down the incline in 1.50 s.
(a) Find the acceleration of the block.
Answer: 1.96 m/s^2
(b) Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline.
Answer: ??
(c) Find the frictional force acting on the block.
Answer: ?
(d) Find the speed of the block after it has slid a distance of 2.20 m.
Answer: 2.94 m/s
I did find 2 of the answers in #2 but again, friction is killin me here
Now I also have a normal dynamics/kinematics problem which i though i knew, but webassign keeps marking it wrong. here it is:
3) A block with a mass of 20 kg is held in equilibrium on an incline of angle = 30.0° by the horizontal force, F, as shown in Figure 4-31. Find the magnitude of F.
Answer: ?
Find the normal force exerted by the incline on the block. (Disregard friction.)
Answer: ?
Figure 4-31 is just a ramp (a right triangle) with a cube above it, and the F arrow is horizontally poiting to the right above the cube.
in this one I drew my free body diagram, all pretty and stuff, and calculated the Fn to be 169.9 and 170, i well, drew the vectors down Fg and Fy, connected them to form a triangle, applied
COS(30)= Adjacent Angle/hypotenuse --> COS(30)=Y/((-9.81)(20))
(acceleration)(mass) = F
i got Fgy (Fy poiting down) =-169.9, so the Natural force should be 169.9 right? but the thing says I am wrong..
This assigment is due today at 7am, if anybody can help me, please anwer this threat, PM me, or IM me to aim(cronowarrior007) or yahoo (coolkegcomputer) or MSN (coolcomputer7@hotmail.com).
Thanks so much
