You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must get a box of supplies, with mass 2.20 kg , up an incline of constant slope angle 30.0 ∘ so that it reaches a stranded skier who is a vertical distance 3.10 m above the bottom of the incline. there is some friction present; the kinetic coefficient of friction is 6.00×10−2. since you can't walk up the incline, you give the box a push that gives it an initial velocity; then the box slides up the incline, slowing down under the forces of friction and gravity. take acceleration due to gravity to be 9.81 m/s2 .

use the work-energy theorem to calculate the minimum speed v that you must give the box at the bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier.

The minimum speed of the box bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier is 8.19 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.2 kg

The box is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees

Vertical distance, d = 3.1 m

The coefficient of friction, $\mu=6\times 10^{-2}$

Using the work energy theorem, the loss of kinetic energy is equal to the sum of gain in potential energy and the work done against friction.

KE=PE+W

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh+W$

W is the work done by the friction.

$W=f\times d$

$f=\mu mg\ cos\theta$

$W=\mu mg\ cos\theta\times \dfrac{d}{sin\theta}$

$W=\dfrac{\mu mgh}{tan\theta}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh+\dfrac{\mu mgh}{tan\theta}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=gh+\dfrac{\mu gh}{tan\theta}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=9.8\times 3.1+\dfrac{6\times 10^{-2}\times 9.8\times 3.1}{tan(30)}$

v = 8.19 m/s

So, the speed of the box is 8.19 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Acetic acid /əˈsiːtɪk/, systematically named ethanoic acid /ˌɛθəˈnoʊɪk/, is a colourless liquid organic compound with the chemical formula ch3cooh (also written as ch3co2h or c2h4o2). when undiluted, it is sometimes called glacial acetic acid. vinegar is no less than 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water. acetic acid has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell. in addition to household vinegar, it is mainly produced as a precursor to polyvinyl acetate and cellulose acetate. it is classified as a weak acid since it only partially dissociates in solution, but concentrated acetic acid is corrosive and can attack the skin.acetic acidnamespreferred iupac nameacetic acidsystematic iupac nameethanoic acidother namesvinegar (when dilute); hydrogen acetate; methanecarboxylic acid[1][2]identifierscas number64-19-7 3d model (jsmol)interactive image3dmetb00009 reference506007chebichebi: 15366 chemblchembl539 chemspider171 drugbankdb03166 echa infocard100.000.528ec number200-580-7e numbere260 (preservatives)gmelin reference1380iuphar/bps1058keggd00010 meshacetic+acidpubchem cid176rtecs numberaf1225000uniiq40q9n063p un number2789inchiinchi=1s/c2h4o2/c1-2(3)4/h1h3,(h,3,4) key: qtbsbxvteameqo-uhfffaoysa-n smilescc(o)=o

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90
