SOS How do you fing the coefficient of kinetic friction? SOS

AI Thread Summary
To find the coefficient of kinetic friction for a 29 kg ox sliding down a 30-degree ramp with an acceleration of 1.25 m/s², a free body diagram is essential. The forces acting on the ox include gravitational force, normal force, and frictional force. Using Newton's second law, the net force can be calculated, and then the coefficient of kinetic friction can be determined by relating it to the normal force and the frictional force. The gravitational acceleration is given as 9.81 m/s², which is crucial for these calculations. Properly analyzing these forces will lead to the solution for the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Can someone help me I am trrying to find the coefficient of kinetic friction

A 29 kg ox slides down a 30degrees ramp w/ an acceleration of 1.25m/s^2
the acceleration of gravity is 9.81m/s^2


please help i need this help in IF POSSILE 5 min thank you much!

Draw a free body diagram. It is mandatory for these problems.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
