A box of mass m = 17.5 kg is pulled up a ramp that is inclined at an angle θ = 23.0 ∘ angle with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is μ k = 0.295 , and the rope pulling the box is parallel to the ramp. If the box accelerates up the ramp at a rate of a = 2.29 m/s 2 , calculate the tension F T in the rope. Use g = 9.81 m/s 2 for the acceleration due to gravity.

T = 153.77 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this type of problems, we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the box. Then performing a sum of forces on the Y axis equal to zero we can find the value of the normal force. After finding the friction force, we performed a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law). We can find the T-Force value.

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
