Answer #1

The length of the incline is

The force on the block as it slides down is

The change is potential energy is

This is equal to the kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline

Solving this gives the coefficient of kinetic friction

A block of mass m is initially held at rest at point P on an incline that makes an angle q with respect to horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is mk. After the block slides down the incline from point P, it starts to slide without friction up a vertical circular track of radius R.

As shown in Figure 1, a block (mass: 2.4 kg) is initially at rest near the top of an inclined plane, oriented at a 25° angle above the horizontal. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction along the incline are 0.2 and 0.1, respectively. (a) Just after the block is released from rest, draw a free-body diagram for it. (Assume that the block is moving after being released from rest.) (b) Determine the magnitude of the normal force acting on...
