A block of mass m begins at rest at the top of a ramp at elevation h with whatever PE is associated with that height. The block slides down the ramp over a distance d until it reaches the bottom of the ramp. How much of its original total energy (in J) survives as KE when it reaches the ground

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A block of mass m begins at rest at the top of a ramp at elevation h with whatever PE is associated with that height. The block slides down the ramp over a distance d until it reaches the bottom of the ramp.

How much of its original total energy (in J) survives as KE when it reaches the ground? m = 9.9 kg h = 4.9 m d = 5 m μ = 0.3 θ = 36.87°

the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will is 358.975 J

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 9.9 kg

h = 4.9 m

d = 5 m

μ = 0.3

θ = 36.87°

Now from conservation of energy, the energy is;

Et = mgh

we substitute

Et = 9.9 × 9.8 × 4.9

= 475.398 J

Also the loss of energy i

E_loss = (umg cosθ) d

we substitute

E_loss  = 0.3 × 9.9 × 9.8 × cos36.87°  × 5

= 116.423 J

so the amount of its original total energy (in J) that survives as KE when it reaches the ground will be

E = Et - E_loss

E = 475.398 J - 116.423 J

E = 358.975 J

the answer would be a

force is mass*acceleration.

we have a very small mass: 11.4*0.001 kg

if we want 0.035n of force, we need an acceleration:

0.035 = 11.4*0.001*a

a = 0.035/(11.4*0.001) m/s^2
