Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
To draw:The sketch of the force vectors for the normal force and a force of friction.
Answer to Problem 46A
The force vectors for the normal force and a force of friction as shown in Figure 1.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The weight of the coin is
The given figure is shown below.
Formula used:
The normal force is the support force exerted upon an object that is contact with the surface.
The frictional force is the force generated by two surfaces that contacts and slide each other.
The weight of the coin is the vector W act vertically downward.
The normal force on the coin is the vector N act vertically upward.
The frictional force on the coin is the vector f act horizontally towards the center of the turntable. The frictional force prevents the coin from sliding off from the turntable.
Sketch the forces acting on the turn table as shown below.
Figure 1
Conclusion:
Thus, the force vectors for the normal force and a force of friction as shown in Figure 1.

The battleship is a distance d1 = 2,150 m to the east of the peak of a mountain on an island, as shown in the figure below. The destroyer is attempting to evade cannon shells fired from the battleship by hiding on the west side of the island. The initial speed of the shells that the battleship fires is vi = 245 m/s. The peak of the mountain is h = 1,840 m above sea level, and the western shore of the island is a horizontal distance d2 = 250 m from the peak. What are the distances (in m), as measured from the western shore of the island, at which the destroyer will be safe from fire from the battleship? (Note the figure is not to scale. You may assume that the height and width of the destroyer are small compared to d1 and h.)arrow_forwardNo chatgpt plsarrow_forward
