Chapter 5, Problem 5.90AP
A student is asked to measure the acceleration of a glider on a frictionless, inclined plane, using an air track, a stopwatch, and a meterstick. The top of the track is measured to be 1.774 cm higher than the bottom of the track, and the length of the track is d = 127.1 cm. The cart is released from rest at the top of the incline, taken as x = 0, and its position × along the incline is measured as a function of time. For x values of 10.0 cm, 20.0 cm, 35.0 cm, 50.0 cm, 75.0 cm, and 100 cm, the measured times at which these positions are reached (averaged over five runs) are 1.02 s, 1.53 s, 2.01 s, 2.64 s, 3.30 s, and 3.75 s, respectively, (a) Construct a graph of x versus t2, with a best-fit straight line to describe the data, (b) Determine the acceleration of the cart from the slope of this graph, (c) Explain how your answer to part (b) compares with the theoretical value you calculate using a = g sin θ as derived in Example 5.6.

An
object of mass 5.9 kg moves along a flat surface and then up an incline with a steepness of 7.8°.
If the object is moving with a speed of 12.6 m-s¹ along the flat surface, how fast is it moving (in m-s¹) after it has travelled 2.2 m along the incline?
Assume that the incline is frictionless, and ignore air resistance.

- A little youngster pulls a toy block up a steep hill before releasing it at the top. He believes the block will fall in his room, but his sister believes he is attempting to fire it into her room across the corridor. Mom isn't going to be pleased if she goes down the hall and steps on the block. Assume the incline's upper end is 1.00 m (horizontally) from the boy's door, and the hallway is 1.00 m wide. Who is correct? This issue, as a whole, does not fit any of the problem types you've learnt; nevertheless, it may be divided into three individual problems. The steps below will walk you through them. There is just one evaluation required. (a) A kid pulls a 0.750 kg wooden block up an incline with an 8.43 N force that is parallel to the slope (rather than horizontal, which is more difficult). The inclination is at an angle, and the kinetic friction coefficient between the block and the incline is 0.178. Determine the acceleration of a block with a 28.0° angle and a length of 0.463 m. (c)…arrow_forwardIn the figure, a body with a mass of 2 kg moves under the influence of two constant forces F1 = 5N and F2 = 4N in the xy plane. At time t = 0, the object is at point 0 and its speed is V = 2i + j (m / s). What is the acceleration of the particle and its position after 2 seconds in terms of the unit vector?arrow_forwardYou have put a sonar device at the top of a frictionless inclined plane. That device allows you to measure the distance an object is from the device, as well as the speed and the acceleration of that object. If we decide that the origin (h = 0) is at the sonar device, we want to know what the height change is as we slide down the incline. For an angle below the horizontal of 9.74°, we see that our object has slid a distance 0.54 m, as measured along the incline itself. - Calculate the height change and report your answer as a negative number. (This value would be useful for calculating the change in gravitational potential energy, as we will do in the lab.) h=o earrow_forward
