Chapter 3, Problem 50A
Here is a stone sliding down a friction-free incline.
a. Identify the forces that act on it and draw appropriate force Vectors.
b. By the parallelogram rule, construct the resultant force on the stone (carefully showing it has a direction parallel to the incline—the same direction as the stone’s acceleration).
(a)
Expert Solution
To determine
The forces that act on the stone and a free body diagram.
Answer to Problem 50A
The forces acts on the stone are weight and normal reaction.
Explanation of Solution
According to the given situation, the force of weight will act in the downward direction and the normal force will be acting perpendicular to the stone’s motion.
Free body diagram:
Conclusion:
The forces act on the stone is weight and normal reaction.
(b)
Expert Solution
To determine
Construction of resultant force on the stone.
Answer to Problem 50A
The resultant vector is parallel to the incline as shown in the figure.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
According to the parallelogram law of vector addition, the resultant vector is the diagonal of the parallelogram of the vectors.
In the given situation the resultant vector is shown in the given construction and will be parallel to the given incline.
Construction:
Conclusion:
The resultant vector is parallel to the incline as shown in the figure.

A. First, if the rod was not there, what statement best describes the charge distribution of the ball? 1) Since it is a conductor, all the charges are on the outside of the ball. 2) The ball is neutral, so it has no positive or negative charges anywhere. 3) The positive and negative charges are separated from each other, but we don't know what direction the ball is polarized. 4) The positive and negative charges are evenly distributed everywhere in the ball. B. Now, when the rod is moved close to the ball, what happens to the charges on the ball? 1) There is a separation of charges in the ball; the side closer to the rod becomes positively charged, and the opposite side becomes negatively charged. 2) Negative charge is drawn from the ground (via the string), so the ball acquires a net negative charge. 3)…arrow_forwardanswer question 5-9arrow_forward
