Answer from: 1129682

The minimum coefficient of static friction required to keep the mug from sliding is 0.31

Further explanation

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

$\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }$

$\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }$

a = acceleration (m / s²)v = final velocity (m / s)

u = initial velocity (m / s)

t = time taken (s)

d = distance (m)

Let us now tackle the problem!

This problem is about Newton's Law of Motion.

Given:

θ = 17°

Unknown:

μ = ?

Solution:

$\Sigma Fy = ma$

$N - w \cos \theta = m (0)$

$N - w \cos \theta = 0$

$\boxed {N = w \cos \theta}$ → Equation 1

$\Sigma Fx = ma$

$w \sin \theta - f = m (0)$

$w \sin \theta - f = 0$

$f = w \sin \theta$

$\mu N = w \sin \theta$

$\mu w \cos \theta = w \sin \theta$ ← Equation 1

$\mu = (w \sin \theta) \div ( w \cos \theta )$

$\mu = \tan \theta$

$\mu = \tan 17^o$

$\mu \approx 0.31$

Amug rests on an inclined surface, as shown in (figure 1) , θ=17∘. what is the magnitude of the fric

Answer from: chloelandry

The magnitude of frictional force exerted on the mug is $\fbox{\begin\\({2.865}\right))m\end{minispace}}$ and the coefficient of static friction is $\fbox{0.31}$ .

Further explanation:

The opposition that every object feels when it moves is known as the frictional force. This is an opposing force. It always acts in the opposite direction of the motion of the object.

Given:

The angle of inclination of plane is ${17^ \circ }$ .

The acceleration due to gravity is $9.8\,{\text{m/}}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}$ .

Concept used:

The frictional force is defined as the opposition of motion of any object or body. It is also defined as the product of coefficient of friction to the normal force exerted on the body.

The expression for the net force exerted on the mug is given as.

$\fbox{\begin\\{F_{{\text{net}}}} = mg\sin \theta\end{minispace}}$ …… (1)

Here, is the mass of the mug, is the acceleration due to gravity and $\theta$ is the inclination angle.

The force that keeps the body at rest is known as the static friction force. It also acts in the opposite direction of motion of body.

The expression for the static frictional force is given as.

${F_s} = {\mu _s}N$ ..…. (2)

Here, ${\mu _s}$ is the coefficient of static frictional force and is the normal force exerted on the body.

When mug is placed on the inclined plane the static frictional force is equal to the frictional force. The vertical component of weight is balanced by the normal reaction of the mug.

The expression for the normal force is given as.

$N-mg\cos\theta=0$

Rearrange the above expression.

$N=mg\cos\theta$

Substitute $mg\cos\theta$ for in equation (2).

${F_s} = {\mu _s}\left( {mg\cos \theta } \right)$

Here static frictional force is same as the frictional force exerted on the mug.

Substitute $mg\sin\theta$ for ${F_s}$ in above expression and rearrange it.

${\mu _s} = \dfrac{{\left( {mg\sin \theta } \right)}}{{\left( {mg\cos \theta } \right)}}$

Rearrange the above expression.

$\fbox{\begin\\{{\mu _s} = \tan \theta}\end{minispace}}$ …… (3)

Substitute ${17^ \circ }$ for $\theta$ and $9.8\,{\text{m/}}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}$ for in equation (1).

$\begin{aligned}{F_{{\text{net}}}} &= m\left( {9.8\,{\text{m/}}{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}\right)\sin\left({{{17}^\circ}}\right)\\&=\left( {2.865}\right)m \\\end{aligned}$

Substitute ${17^ \circ }$ for $\theta$ in equation (3).

$\begin{gathered}{\mu_s}=\tan\left( {{{17}^\circ }}\right)\\= 0.306 \\\end{gathered}$

Thus, the coefficient of static friction is 0.31 and the magnitude of frictional force is (2.865)m .

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j.b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
