The carton shown in the figure lies on a plane tilted at an angle to the horizon

Question

The carton shown in the figure lies on a plane tilted at an angle to the horizontal, ? = 25.0 with µk=0.12

Determine the acceleration of the carton as it slides down the plane. If the carton starts from rest 9.90m up the plane from its base, what will be the carton's speed when it reaches the bottom of the incline? The carton shown in the figure lies on a plane tilted at an angle to the horizontal, ? = 25.0 with µk=0.12

Determine the acceleration of the carton as it slides down the plane. If the carton starts from rest 9.90m up the plane from its base, what will be the carton's speed when it reaches the bottom of the incline?

Explanation / Answer

When a body slides down on an inclined plane     Acceleratrion a = g[sin? - µ cos?]                            = 9.8[sin25 - 0.12*cos25]                            = 9.8[ 0.422 - 0.108]                            = 9.8 * 0.313                            = 3.06 m/s^2
