Chapter 6 Problem 68P

Question

Problems 67 and 68 show a free-body diagram. For each:

a. Write a realistic dynamics problem for which this is the correct free-body diagram. Your problem should ask a question that can be answered with a value of position or velocity (such as “How far?” or “How fast?”), and should give sufficient information to allow a solution.

b. Solve your problem!

Solution

Step 1 of 2

 

Part a

We are required to state a problem related to the given free-body diagram.

The weight of the object is 15,000 N. Let this be a heavy vehicle. The vehicle is moving down a hill. The hill’s slope makes an angle of 150 with the ground. The force being applied on the vehicle as it moves down is 12,000 N. The normal force applied by the hill on the vehicle is 14,500 N.
