The net force is zero.lalahelp said:what equation would i use to do that?
What forces act on the crate?lalahelp said:I don't understand it still
The weight, the friction, and the normal force. What direction does each act?lalahelp said:the mass and friction
Consider force components parallel to the incline and apply ΣF = 0.lalahelp said:the weights acts straight down, friction to the right, and normal force up
Frictional force is the force that opposes the motion of an object when it is in contact with another object or surface.
Frictional force is calculated by multiplying the coefficient of friction (a measure of how easily two surfaces slide against each other) by the normal force (the force exerted by the surface on the object).
The frictional force of a crate of potatoes can be affected by the weight of the crate, the surface it is on, and the angle of incline.
The weight of the crate of potatoes can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the potatoes (13 kg) by the gravitational acceleration (9.8 m/s²), giving a weight of 127.4 N.
The frictional force of a crate of potatoes can be reduced by using a smoother surface or by decreasing the angle of incline. Additionally, using lubricants or reducing the weight of the crate can also decrease frictional force.
