- A block having a mass of m = 15 kg is suspended via two cables as shown in the figure. The angles shown in the figure are as follows: α = 17° and β = 32°. Part (a) Solve for the numeric value of T1, in newtons. Part (c) Solve for the numeric value of T2, in newtons.arrow_forward42. A block initially at rest slides down a ramp of length L that makes an angle of θ with the horizontal. (a) Derive an equation that predicts the time required for the block to reach the bottom of the ramp in terms of L, θ, g, and μ, the coefficient of friction. (b) This derived equation has no real solutions for angles θ ≤ tan–1 (μ). Show algebraically this is the case and explain the physical significance of this – i.e. what does this mean about an actual block on an actual ramp with actual friction?arrow_forwardA woman was transporting an open box of cupcakes to a school party.

- A person driving on I-82 glanced at his phone to read a very important text message. When he looked back up at the road, he saw that the traffic ahead had come to a standstill and he immediately slammed on his brakes. His car created 96.5 m long skid marks before rear-ending another car. Unfortunately, a passenger in the rear-ended car was seriously injured, thus requiring an investigation by the State Patrol. The State Patrol has no proof of distracted driving, however they want to determine if a citation for speeding should be issued. A State Patrol investigator used a 3.9 kg drag sled to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the tires of the car. The drag sled's spring scale read 28 N when it was pulled along the ground at a constant speed. Use Newton's Second Law and kinematics to estimate the minimum value of the car's speed when the driver locked the brakes. (answer: about 83 mi/hr) Note: You do not need the mass of the car to answer this question.…arrow_forwardA person driving on I-82 glanced at his phone to read a very important text message.
