    Block on a slope, friction related

    Could someone maybe run through this and tell me if they get a matching 314kg for the other block? thanks

    Block on a slope, friction related

    For some reason the scanner isn't working, but basically i found the force required to in effect keep the block on the slope still, using F = mgsin20 + umgcos20 and from this force i used m=F/g to get the mass of the block, 314kg... this seem right ?

    Block on a slope, friction related

    A 300kg block is sitting on a slope of 20 degrees, the coeff of friction is 0.75, if the block is connected to a mass hanging vertically via a pulley, what is the mass of the hanging block such that it will overcome friction but not move the block F = mgsin20 for the force acting down the...

    Calculating Heat Flow in Snow: 0°C & 37°C

    dQ/dt = -kA dT/dx if a is the cross sectional area of the sole of the shoe do you then not need the thickness of it ? ;s and dT/dx would be the rate of change of temperature, however I am unsure as to what the rate of change is as all your told is it changes from 37 to 0 ive hit a brick...
