A 10kg crate is placed on a horizontal conveyor belt. The materials are such that s= 0.5and k= 0.3.

a. Draw a free-body diagram showing all the forces on the crate if the conveyor belt runs at constant speed.

b. Draw a free-body diagram showing all the forces on the crate if the conveyor belt is speeding up.

c. What is the maximum acceleration the belt can have without the crate slipping?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. The net force operating in the vertical and horizontal directions is zero, as seen in the free body diagram. The static friction force is equal to and opposes the conveyor force.

b. The net force applied in the vertical direction is zero in the free body diagram . The direction of the kinetic friction force vector is opposite the direction that the conveyor belt is moving.

c, The maximum acceleration of the belt so that crate is nor slipping is 4.9m/s

Step by step solution

01

Content Introduction

The pace at which the location changes is called velocity. The average velocity is the ratio of displacement or position change (a vector quantity) to time.

02

Explanation (Part a)

From the free body diagram shows the net force acting in the vertical and horizontal direction is zero.The static friction force is equal to and opposes the conveyor force.

fsis the force of static friction

sis the coefficient of static friction between the belt and the crate

Fis the force applied by the conveyor

mgis the weight of the crate acting in downward direction

Nis the normal reaction force

In this diagram the normal force and the weight is balanced. The force conveyor belt is equal and opposite of the static friction force.

03

Explanation (Part b)

The free body of the diagram is drawn. The net force will act on the crate in the horizontal direction as there is a relative motion between the conveyor belt and the crate.

fsis the force of kinetic friction

kis the coefficient of kinetic friction between the belt and the crate.

Fis the force applied by the conveyor

mgis the weight crate acting in downward direction

Nis normal reaction force

Here, normal force is opposite to the direction of gravitational force.

Because the belt and the crate are in motion, kinetic friction is created between the belt and the crate. The direction of motion is reversed in this kinetic friction force. The net force acting on the crate is in the direction of right.

04

Explanation (Part c)

According to Newton's second law where Fis force, ais acceleration

Mass of crate is 10kg, coefficient of static friction between the crate and belt sis 0.5. and coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the belt is k=0.3

The net force acting in vertical direction is zero as there is no motion.

R-mg=0(1)

As the static friction force is equal to and opposing the maximum conveyor belt force in the horizontal direction, the crate does not slip.

fmax=fsmamax=sRFromequation(1)mamax=smgamax=sg(II)

Substitute the values where s=0.5,g=9.8m/s2

amax=0.59.8m/s2amax=4.9m/s2

The maximum acceleration of the belt is 4.9m/s

A person with compromised pinch strength in his fingers can exert a force of only6.0Nto either side of a pinched object, such as the book shown in FIGURE P6.58. What is the heaviest book he can hold vertically before it slips out of his fingers? The coefficient of static friction between his fingers and the book cover is 0.80.

The three ropes inFIGUREEX6.2are tied to a small, very light ring. Two of the ropes are anchored to walls at right angles, and the third rope pulls as shown. What are T1and T2, the magnitudes of the tension forces in the first two ropes?

Seat belts and air bags save lives by reducing the forces exerted on the driver and passengers in an automobile collision. Cars are designed with a 鈥渃rumple zone鈥 in the front of the car. In the event of an impact, the passenger compartment decelerates over a distance of about 1mas the front of the car crumples. An occupant restrained by seat belts and air bags decelerates with the car. By contrast, an unrestrained occupant keeps moving forward with no loss of speed (Newton鈥檚 first law!) until hitting the dashboard or windshield. These are unyielding surfaces, and the unfortunate occupant then decelerates over a distance of only about 5mm. a. A 60kgperson is in a head-on collision. The car鈥檚 speed at impact is 15m/s. Estimate the net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys.

b. Estimate the net force that ultimately stops the person if he or she is not restrained by a seat belt or air bag
