A 25kg box in released on a 27° incline and accelerates down the incline at 0.3 m/s2. Find the friction force impending its motion? What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?

Answer:

a)  μ = 0.475 , b)   μ = 0.433

Explanation:

a) For this exercise of Newton's second law, we create a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the y-axis perpendicular to it

X axis

     Wₓ - fr = m a

the friction force has the expression

     fr = μ N

y Axis

     N - [tex]W_{y}[/tex] = 0

let's use trigonometry for the components the weight

     sin 27 = Wₓ / W

     Wₓ = W sin 27

     cos 27 = W_{y} / W

     W_{y} = W cos 27

     N = W cos 27

     W sin 27 - μ W cos 27 = m a

     mg sin 27 - μ mg cos 27 = m a

      μ = (g sin 27 - a) / (g cos 27)

      very = tan 27 - a / g sec 27

      μ = 0.510 - 0.0344

      μ = 0.475

b) now the block starts with an initial speed of 3m / s. In Newton's second law velocity does not appear, so this term does not affect the result, the change in slope does affect the result

         μ = tan 25 - 0.3 / 9.8 sec 25

         μ = 0.466 -0.03378

         μ = 0.433
