Question

9:00:00 AM (44%) Problem 4: A block with a mass or·76 kg is placed on a ramp. The ramp has an incline of 0-27.9 degrees from the horizontal. The static coefficient of friction between the block and ramp is .·0.255, and the kinetic coefficient of friction between the block and ramp is Pk-a134. A force, F, is exerted on the block as shown. Note that the force F is parallel with the ramp. stationary on the ramp?

Explanation / Answer


If block moves downwards, frictional force acts upwards

Fnet = 0


F + fs = Fg


F = Fg - fs


F = m*g*sintheta - us*m*g*costheta

F = 9.76*9.8*sin27.9 - 0.255*9.76*9.8*cos27.9

F = 23.2 N


part (b)


If block moves upwards , frictional force acts down the incline


Fnet = 0


F - Fg -fs = 0

F = Fg + fs

F = 9.76*9.8*sin27.9 + 0.255*9.76*9.8*cos27.9


F = 66.3 N


======================

part(c)

If the block moves at constant speed


acceleration = 0

Fnet = F - Fg - fk


from newtons second law


Fnet = m*a


F - 9.76*9.8*sin27.9 - 0.134*9.76*9.8*cos27.9 = 0


F = 56 N
