a) A box that weighs 8.20kg was slid down a platform at an inclination of 45.0o to the horizontal (see figure below). The kinetic friction coefficient is 0.26. The box has a rope connected to it which is coiled around a disc that weighs 9.46kg and is on a fixed axis at O. The disc has a moment of inertia of 0.500kg.m2 with respect to the rotational axis. i) The moment of inertia of the disc is given by ? = 1 2 ?? 2 . Calculate the radius R. ii) Draw a diagram showing the forces acting on the box and the disc. iii) Calculate the acceleration of the box down the platform. iv) What is the tension of the rope?

A toboggan with two people on it weighs 300 lb. It starts from rest down a slope, 1/4 mile long, from a height 200 ft above horizontal level. The coefficient of sliding friction is 3/100 and the force of the wind resistance is proportional to the square of the velocity. When the velocity is 30 ft/sec, this force is 6 lb. (a) Find the velocity of the toboggan as a function of the distance and of the time. (b) With...

A box (with a penguin inside) with mass, M, slides down a frictionless ramp, starting a height H above ground level. At the lowest point of the ramp (height = -0.1H) it slides through a curved section of track with radius, R= 0.25H. The box (w/ penguin) then rises to ground level (height = 0) and at that point, leaves a jump at an angle θ. At the highest point of its trajectory, h2, it strikes a blob of glue...
