A 205 kg log is pulled up a ramp by means of a rope that
isparallel to the surface of the ramp. The ramp is inclined at30%
with respect to the horizontal. The coeffecient ofkinetic frictin
between the log and the ramp is 0.900 and the loghas an
acceleration of 0.800 m/s2. Find the tension in therope.

Respuesta :

Answer:2.737 kN

Explanation:

Given

mass of log(m)=205 kg

ramp inclination[tex]=30^{\circ}[/tex]

coefficient of kinetic friction between log and ramp is ([tex]\mu _k[/tex])=0.9

log has an acceleration of 0.8 m/s^2

Let T be the tension in the rope

[tex]T-mgsin\theta -f_r=ma[/tex]

Where [tex]mgsin\theta [/tex]=Sin component of weight

[tex]f_r=friction\ Force=\mu _KN[/tex](Where N is Normal reaction)

[tex]T-mgsin\theta -\mu _k\left ( mgcos\theta \right )=ma[/tex]

[tex]T=m\left ( gsin\theta +\mu _kcos\theta +a\right )[/tex]

sin30=0.5

cos30=0.866

[tex]T=205\times \left ( 9.81\times 0.5+0.9\times 9.81\times 0.866+0.8\right )[/tex]

[tex]T=205\times 13.35=2.737 kN[/tex]
