Acceleration of the object, distance, kinematic coefficient

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around a physics homework problem involving an object sliding down a 30° slope. The object, weighing 3.00 kg, slides 2.00 m in 1.5 seconds, prompting the need to calculate its acceleration, kinematic friction coefficient, frictional force, and velocity. Participants emphasize the importance of breaking down the problem into vector components and using relevant equations. There is a reminder that homework assistance should demonstrate some effort from the student, and the thread is ultimately closed for not adhering to forum guidelines. The conversation highlights the need for proper problem-solving approaches in physics.

Hello guys. i know i shouldn't be doing this, but I am asking you if you can help me with a problem for my younger sister, because my major is something else (biology, genetics) and she need this and doesn't know how to solve it..

1. Homework Statement


At an upper end of the slope inclined at 30°, the object stopped at 3,00kg started to slip and then 1,50 seconds, slides down a distance of 2,00m. Find the acceleration of the object, the distance between the object and the slope , kinematic friction coefficient, frictional force acting on the object , 2,00 m, then find the velocity of the object.

At an upper end of the slope inclined at 30°, the object stopped at 3,00kg started to slip and then 1,50 seconds, slides down a distance of 2,00m. Find the acceleration of the object, the distance between the object and the slope , kinematic friction coefficient, frictional force acting on the object , 2,00 m, then find the velocity of the object.

If you can clarify the problem statement:
I understand, there is a sloped surface at an angle inclined 30 degrees above horizontal. There is a mass of 3.00 kg. The box slides down 2.00m and takes 1.5 seconds to do so. Can we assume they are increasing the mass, it was static and not moving as they were increasing mass? Then we can mind Fstatic(max). Then we find what you need to know.

you need to know:

coefficient of kinematic friction
force of friction
and the velocity at t=1.5s
?

First: I will help you, as we aren't supposed to solve H/W haha? but in the mean time I'll work it out (I'm bored).

Here's a site that will help, IT DOESN'T include any slope, but can show the relationship between Fs and Fk. Break the question down into vector components ie

Fnormal = mg (sin or cos) (30 or 60)

Beams of electrons and protons move parallel to each other in the same direction. They ______. a. attract each other. b. repel each other. c. neither attract nor repel. d. the force of attraction or repulsion depends upon the speed of the beams. This is a previous-year-question of CBSE Board 2023. The answer key marks (b) as the right option. I want to know why we are ignoring Coulomb's force?
Thread 'Struggling to make relation between elastic force and height'
Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...
I treat this question as two cases of Doppler effect. (1) When the sound wave travels from bat to moth Speed of sound = 222 x 1.5 = 333 m/s Frequency received by moth: $$f_1=\frac{333+v}{333}\times 222$$ (2) When the sound wave is reflected from moth back to bat Frequency received by bat (moth as source and bat as observer): $$f_2=\frac{333}{333-v}\times f_1$$ $$230.3=\frac{333}{333-v}\times \frac{333+v}{333}\times 222$$ Solving this equation, I get ##v=6.1## m/s but the answer key is...
