Chapter 6: Q72P (page 146)

A box of canned goods slides down a ramp from street level into the basement of a grocery store with acceleration $0.75 m / s^{2}$ directed down the ramp. The ramp makes an angle of $40 掳$ with the horizontal. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp?

Short Answer

Expert verified

$渭_{k} = 0.47$

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The angle of inclination of the ramp, $胃 = 40 掳$ .
The acceleration down the ramp is $a = 0.75 m / s^{2}$ .

02

Understanding the concept

The problem deals with Newton鈥檚 second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object can be written in terms of the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.Use Newton鈥檚 law of motion to calculate the kinetic friction.

Formula:

$F = m a F_{N} = m g \cos 胃$

03

Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp

The normal force on the block on the inclined ramp is:

$F_{N} = m g \cos 胃$

To calculate acceleration, use Newton鈥檚 second law of motion:

$m g \sin 胃 - f_{k} = m a m g \sin 胃 - 渭_{k} m g \cos 胃 = m a$

Substitute the values in the above expression, and we get,

$(9.8 m / s^{2}) 脳 \sin (40 掳) - 渭_{k} 脳 (9.8 m / s^{2}) 脳 \cos (40 掳) = 0.75 m / s^{2} 渭_{k} = 0.74$

Thus, the coefficient of kinetic friction is $0.74$ .

Anblock of steel is at rest on a horizontal table. The coefficient of static friction between block and table is 0.52. (a) What is the magnitude of the horizontal force that will put the block on the verge of moving? (b) What is the magnitude of a force acting upward $60 掳$ from the horizontal that will put the block on the verge of moving? (c) If the force acts downward at $60 掳$ from the horizontal, how large can its magnitude be without causing the block to move?

In about 1915, Henry Sincosky of Philadelphia suspended himself from a rafter by gripping the rafter with the thumb of each hand on one side and the fingers on the opposite side (Fig. 6-21). Sincosky鈥檚 mass was $79 kg$ . If the coefficient of static friction between hand and rafter was $0.70$ , what was the least magnitude of the normal force on the rafter from each thumb or opposite fingers? (After suspending himself, Sincosky chinned himself on the rafter and then moved hand-over-hand along the rafter. If you do not think Sincosky鈥檚 grip was remarkable, try to repeat his stunt)

A $3.5 k g$ block is pushed along a horizontal floor by a force of magnitude $15 N$ at an angle with the horizontal (Fig. 6-19). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the floor is $0.25$ . Calculate the magnitudes of (a) the frictional force on the block from the floor and (b) the block鈥檚 acceleration.
