A block of mass mis at rest at the origin at t=0. It is pushed with constant force F0from x=0to x=Lacross a horizontal surface whose coefficient of kinetic friction is k=0(1x/L). That is, the coefficient of friction decreases from 0at x=0to zero at x=L.

a. Use what you've learned in calculus to prove that

ar=vrdvxdx

b. Find an expression for the block's speed as it reaches position L.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a) It is proved that ax=vxdvxdx.

Part (b) The speed at x=Lis vL={2[FLmgl02]}1/2..

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1: Given.

k=0(1xL)Atx=0,v=0.

02

Part (a): Step 2: Explanation of solution.

The acceleration axis given by,

ax=d2xdt2=ddt(dxdt)=ddx(dxdt)dxdt

Now, substitute dxdt=vxin the above expression.

ax=ddx(vx)vx=vxdvxdx

It is proved that ax=vxdvxdx.

03

Part (b) Step 3: Given.

The frictional co-efficient of friction between the surface isk=0(1xL).

04

Part (b) Step 4: Calculation.

Weight of the block isw=mg,gis the acceleration due to gravity. Hence, the normal force on the block isn=w=mg. So, the frictional force is fk=kn=0(1xL)mg. The applied force on the block is F.

Hence, the total force on the block isf=F0(1xL)mg.

So, acceleration is given byax=fm=Fm0(1xL)g.

Use equation (1) to write

vxdvx=axdx

Now substitute the value of ax

vxdvx=Fm0(1xL)gdx

Integrate the above equation.

v0vLvxdvx=0LFm0(1xL)gdx[vx22]v0vL=[Fxm0(xx22L)g]0L

Now, put the value v0=0, in the above equation to get:vL22=[FLmgL02].

Hence, the speed is vL={2[FLmgL02]}1/2.

05

Conclusion.

Part (a): It is proved that ax=vxdvxdx.

Part (b): The speed atX=LisvL=2FLmgl021/2.

A truck with a heavy load has a total mass of 7500kg. It is climbing a 15incline at a steady 15m/s when, unfortunately, the poorly secured load falls off! Immediately after losing the load, the truck begins to accelerate at 1.5 m/s2. What was the mass of the load? Ignore rolling friction.

Kat, Matt, and Nat are arguing about why a physics book on a table doesn鈥檛 fall. According to Kat, 鈥淕ravity pulls down on it, but the table is in the way so it can鈥檛 fall.鈥 鈥淣onsense,鈥 says Matt. 鈥淎n upward force simply overcomes the downward force to prevent it from falling.鈥 鈥淏ut what about Newton鈥檚 first law?鈥 counters Nat. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not moving, so there can鈥檛 be any forces acting on it.鈥 None of the statements is exactly correct. Who comes closest, and how would you change his or her statement to make it correct?

  1. Write a realistic problem for which these are the correct equations.
  2. Draw the free-body diagram and the pictorial representation for your problem.
  3. Finish the solution of the problem.
(100N)cos30fk=(20kg)ax

n+(100N)sin30(20kg)(9.80m/s2)=0fk=0.20n.

A crate of fragile dishes is in the back of a pickup truck. The truck accelerates north from a stop sign, and the crate moves without slipping. Does the friction force on the crate point north or south? Or is the friction force zero? Explain.

An Airbus A320 jetliner has a takeoff mass of 75,000 kg. It reaches its takeoff speed of 82m/s(180mph) in 35s. What is the thrust of the engines? You can neglect air resistance but not rolling friction
