Question

In figure 3.1 a block with a vertical tube slides down a frictionless ramp.

A) Find the acceleration of the block in the x direction as shown in the figure.

B) Find the acceleration of the ball (inside the tube) in the y direction shown in the figure.

C) What is the magnitude of total acceleration of the ball?

10. In figure 3.1 a block with a vertical tube slides down a frictionless ramp. (a) Find the acceleration of the block in the x direction as shown in the figure. (b) Find the acceleration of the ball (inside the tube) in the y direction shown in the figure. Assume the ball slides down without m friction. (c) What is the magnitude of total acceleration on the ball? 1 m l m 1 m 1 m Figure 3.1

Explanation / Answer

sin theta = 1/5

theta = 11.53

A) ax = g*sintheta = 10*1/5 = 2 m/s^2

B) ay = g*costheta = 10*0.979 = 9.79 m/s^2

C)a = sqrt(ax^2+ay^2) = 9.99 m/s^2
