> Problem 15: An inclined surface, at angle =15.9° with the horizontal, is constructed on a ench. A box, with mass m₁ = 2.62 kg, is placed on the inclined surface, and it is attached to an ideal, neaning massless and inelastic, cord that passes over an ideal, meaning massless and frictionless, ulley. The other end of the cord is attached to a sphere of mass m₂ =0.468 kg. The box is given an nitial velocity with magnitude v =3.24 m/s directed parallel to and up the inclined surface, as shown in he sketch. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.27. a 50% Part (a) What is the distance, in meters, that the box travels up the inclined surface before coming to rest? d = 0.5300 m * Attempts Remain m₂ Hs = 8 m₂ >50% Part (b) What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction such that, after coming to a stop, the box remains at rest and does not accelerate own the inclined box?
Gravitational force
In nature, every object is attracted by every other object. This phenomenon is called gravity. The force associated with gravity is called gravitational force. The gravitational force is the weakest force that exists in nature. The gravitational force is always attractive.
Acceleration Due to Gravity
In fundamental physics, gravity or gravitational force is the universal attractive force acting between all the matters that exist or exhibit. It is the weakest known force. Therefore no internal changes in an object occurs due to this force. On the other hand, it has control over the trajectories of bodies in the solar system and in the universe due to its vast scope and universal action. The free fall of objects on Earth and the motions of celestial bodies, according to Newton, are both determined by the same force. It was Newton who put forward that the moon is held by a strong attractive force exerted by the Earth which makes it revolve in a straight line. He was sure that this force is similar to the downward force which Earth exerts on all the objects on it.
