How to Solve Inclined Plane Problems

Physics Ninja look at 3 inclined plane problems. 1) Determine the speed at the bottom of the ramp and the time is takes to get to the bottom. 2) Given an initial speed up the ramp find the max distance up the ramp (includes kinetic friction) 3) Find the tension in the rope if the block is in equilibrium.

    slowing down, negative acceleration, or opposite the direction of the velocity. if acceleration is opposite the direction of motion, it indicates it's still moving in the original direction, but slowing down. equivalent to a negative acceleration.

    Because for this problem it’s sliding up the ramp and slowing down. Friction is in the opposite direction.

    @ 20:00 How did you go from mgsin(theta) "+" mu_kN = max, then substituted in N, mgcos(theta) to somehow get mgsin(theta) "-" mu_k(mgcos(theta)? How does substituting in N suddenly change the expression to "-"? And if I calculate (9.8)(sin35 "+" 0.15cos(35)) I get 6.83... If I use the negative expression you derived after subbing in the N, I get 4.41 m/s. Not sure what's going on here. Please elaborate?

  • @zanderman27

    Жыл бұрын

    I believe it's because the initial velocity is 15m/s which means initially, the net force is 0 since it is in constant velocity. Although, once it starts to slide up, it accelerates downward, which means the forces in the X direction are pointing downward.

  • @fredsmith6324
    @fredsmith632411 күн бұрын

    at 19:58, shouldn't it be plus, not minus? both forces acting downhill. also, it wouldn't it be more intuitive to make your positive x direction uphill? (direction of motion, and what they are asking for). i realize either way works.

Hopefully, people will be able to realize that it's just a simple case of getting numbers mixed up in your head. I do this all the time, and according to everyone else that I talk to in the calculus/physics world, is something that almost everyone does.

  • @captainplane398

    @captainplane398

    Жыл бұрын

    normally g is negative because it goes in the opposite direction of whatever force is being calculated, here we consider g as positive because we consider the left direction of the hypotenuse as the positive direction, which is why we get a negative for things like our final displacement because thats in the opposite direction of g, so the right direction of the hypotenuse. It doesnt matter though, the signs only mean direction, so you can have negative g and get positive answers., as long as ur directions are consistent g

    @GeraldBosley-cf8ng4 ай бұрын

    In the first question I'm almost certain you got the distance wrong. The distance is essentially the hypotenuse of the plane, and you used the height instead of the calculated distance to evaluate the time it takes to reach the final position. And why are you calculating the acceleration twice in the kinematic equation? You have sin(35)•(5.62) but that isn't making sense.
