- 米 a A long straight wire and a rectangular loop lie in the same plane, as shown in the the figure above, where 11 = 6 A, 12 = 4 A, a = 15 cm, b = 30 cm, c = 30 cm. Find the net force on the loop due to the long wire. N (positive if to the right) Hint: Force on top side and force on bottom side cancel out.arrow_forwardA dancer is standing on one leg on a drawbridge that is about to open. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the drawbridge and the dancer's foot are μs and μk, respectively. n⃗ represents the normal force exerted on the dancer by the bridge, and F⃗g represents the gravitational force exerted on the dancer, as shown in the drawing.(Figure 1). For all the questions, we can assume that the bridge is a perfectly flat surface and lacks the curvature characteristic of most bridges. Before the drawbridge starts to open, it is perfectly level with the ground. The dancer is standing still on one leg. What is the horizontal component of the friction force f⃗? (Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables n, μs, and/or μk.) (Figure 2). The drawbridge then starts to rise. The dancer continues to stand on one leg. The drawbridge stops just at the point where the dancer is on the verge of slipping. What is the magnitude f of the frictional force now?

Part A Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume there is no friction. Express your answer using two significant figures. Part B Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume the coefficient of friction between all surfaces is μ = 0.0280. Since the block is much lighter than the cylinder, ignore tension in the string when calculating the normal force on the cylinder. Do not ignore tension in the string when calculating the net torque (including friction) on the cylinder.arrow_forward
- A 1,380-N crate is being pushed across a level floor at a constant speed by a force of 390 N at an angle of 20.0° below the horizontal. Two figures show a side view of a crate positioned upon a horizontal surface. Figure (a): An arrow pointing downward and to the right is labeled vector F and forms an angle of 20° below the horizontal as it approaches the upper left edge of the crate. Figure (b): An arrow pointing upward and to the right is labeled vector F and forms an angle of 20° above the horizontal as it extends from the upper right edge of the crate. (a) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor? (b) If the 390-N force is instead pulling the block at an angle of 20.0° above the horizontal, as shown in the figure b, what will be the acceleration of the crate? Assume that the coefficient of friction is the same as that found in part (a).arrow_forwardplease answer with stepsarrow_forwardA skateboarder is attempting to skate through a vertical loop of radius r = 7.5 m.

- The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with horizontal arms attached at its upper end. Each arm supports a seat suspended from a cable 5.00 m long, and the upper end of the cable is fastened to the arm at a point 3.00 m from the central shaft as seen below. а. Find the time of one revolution of the swing if the cable supporting a seat makes an angle of 30.0° with the vertical. b.

- You are designing the section of a roller coaster ride shown in the figure. Previous sections of the ride give the train a speed of 15.5 m/s at the top of the incline, which is h = 36.7 m above the ground. As any good engineer would, you begin your design with safety in mind. Your local government's safety regulations state that the riders' centripetal acceleration should be no more than n = 1.77 g at the top of the hump and no more than N = 5.37 g at the bottom of the loop. For this initial phase of your design, you decide to ignore the effects of friction and air resistance. (Figure not to scale) What is the minimum radius Rhump you can use for the semi-circular hump?
