What the actual fuck.

This question is the most fucked question I have ever seen.


!)
>Magnitude of 10N ......pull crate with constant speed.

The Force is not pulling it if it is constant speed there would be another force to cancel it out.


2) Either that or the the net force is 10N and it is NOT at a constant speed.


3) Forgetting all that and pretending that it is NOT at a constant speed Number One asks for Force Applied NOT net force so it is not simply 10N times 3meters (That was the correct answer in class) You would need to add the Friction plus the net of 10N to get the force applied to get a final answer of around 180J.

4) Number 4 is number 2 (made us cross it out for some other reason)


5) For number five you contradict the answers to number 1 by saying it is Zero. In line with previous questions It would be 10N.


6) Same thing as number 5 but in the form or work All these contradictions.


All these contradictions on a Question that makes no sense in it's entierdy.

I know why my teacher revised this because he probably though the question was to hard for the dumbshits in my class but still wtf. happened.........

I tried explaining this to him and other students but they would't listen or just didn't understand anything ....

Wtf I can't be the only one in my class to understand net forces /sci wtffff?
Am I really arrogant or am I really correct?

>>7658105
What?

The question stated it is moving at a constant speed with a Net force of 10 actiing on it.The friction is gravity and that equals 50N so a net force of 10N would mean that the total applied force would be 60N the extra force I stated was about another 10N pulling it down so the There is no net force acting on it at all and it can move at a constant Velocity.

Lack of net force doesn't mean there is no Velocity is just means it is at a constant speed.

>> No.7658132

>>7658100
Friction is not included in the applied force.

The applied force is 10 N. This is said in the first paragraph of the question.
Your confusing might come from the fact that the 10 N force is not explicitly called the applied force.

If the applied force is 10N then It wouldn't the box be falling down the ramp at 40N? Since the total Gravitational force falling down the ramp is 50N.

Don't worry, you aren't wrong. /sci/ just isn't doing the math and assuming you're retarded. I think it may have something to do with the static friction being equal to the force of gravity, but then once the 10 N is applied it cancels out the gravitational force? I don't fucking know, but I would just use 10 N for number 1 and 50 N for number 2, the questions asked aren't really requiring you to figure out which way the box will move so the inconsistancies dont really matter

>>7658155
Well in this case it would be Kinetic friction since the box is apparently moving but they gave no coefficient of friction or frictional force so we have no way of knowing what it is. So i am assuming "frictional force" here is the Gravitational force.

(Yeah I know we are still in baby math mode because the kids in my class don't understand jack shit)


But yeah if you assuming that 10N is the applied force then it would NOT be going up it would be "falling"


So the initial question contradicts itself either way really.


But putting that aside then the net force would be 40Net down and Number 5 would not be 0 and number 6 would not be 0 (We actUALLY HAVE no WAY OF KNOWING 6) because the problem stated 3meaters up but it is moving down in this situation............

Yeah man.

You can either look at it with 10N being a Net force up but then 1 2 5 and 6 would be wrong and it would NOT be moving at a constant speed.


Or as an applied force of 10N but then 1 and and 6 would still be wrong since it if falling at 40N and you wouldn't even know how to find 6.

Or as a Constant speed bu then the net force would be 0 and the applied force would be 50N to cancel out with gravity and 1 2 5 and 6 would be wrong (since it doesn't move from a Force at all)

Did.you.even.read.the.thread?

If gravity is constantly applied tot he object there would have to be another force cancelling out the gravity for it to not accelerate therefor the 10N applied is wrong and the Applied force would have to be 50N to cancel it out so there is not net force and it's speed can be constant.So the question contradicts itself and answer 1 and 2 would be wrong.
>Applied. Forces. Don't. Always. Cause. Constant. Acceleration.

No shit It's when they have a Net force that they do and the only way for there to not be a net force would have to be for the applied force to be 50N like I said before.

Constant speed means that the net force is 0.
That is, F+Fn+Fu+Fk=0. (where + is the vector sum, not the sum of magnitudes)
Choose coordinates such that the x axis is parallel to F and the y axis is parallel to Fn. Resolve Fu into perpindicular force vectors along these two axes. Then Fn+Fu_y=0, F+Fu_x+Fk=0. Or, in terms of their magnitudes, |F|=|Fu_x|+|Fk|
But the magnitude of kinetic friction is proportional to the normal force, so let |Fk|=a|Fn|=a|Fu_y| with coefficient of kinetic friction a. Then |F|=|Fu_x|+a|Fu_y|.

The problem is not contradictory. It should be clear that every possible coefficient of friction gives a force F that will move the block at constant velocity.

On the Moon, motion "up the ramp" would be possible:

F=10N, m=10kg, an=30° and g=1.6N/kg
F - Fd - Ff = 0
Fd=m*g*sin(30)=8N
Ff=µ*m*g*cos(30)=2N
µ=2/(10*1.6*0.866)=0.144

On Earth (mentioned in 2.) only downhill motion is possible:

F=10N, m=10kg, an=30° and g=9.8N/kg
F - Fd + Ff = 0
Fd=m*g*sin(30)=49N
Ff=µ*m*g*cos(30)=39N
µ=39/(10*9.8*0.866)=0.46

Without force F, µ=tan(30)=0.577 leads to constant downhill motion independent of g

They are literally telling you that Fk = 10 N because for it to move at constant speed they must cancel out. You are over-complicating things by trying to work it out via the angle which is probably made up seeing as it isn't relevant to the question.

OP you are obviously on the work-energy section of your physics class, have you bothered to read your textbook?

work, is a force applied over a distance, 10N, 3m, therefore the work done BY THE APPLIED FORCE is 30N-m. this completely ignores the work done by any other forces because THE QUESTION DOESNT ASK ABOUT THEM

the applied force does 30 N-m of work, because the net force is 0 then there is some opposing force, in this case gravity and friction both oppose the force, because the block is in equilibrium the sum of forces is 0, and the net work will be 0, therefore even though we would have to work out the specific magnitudes of the forces to know the opposing forces individual contributions to the work, we can conclude, just by looking at the problem statement that the total work done by the opposing forces must = -30N-m, therefore the net work done is 0, because the net force is 0, however there are individual forces, and there is motion, therefore each force does work

it has to be because otherwise the net force is not zero, do the algebra. if the friction is downwards the force is not balanced and the object is accelerating.

Lol yeah.
But no dude, my teacher is not retarded he actually understands what he is doing I think he just made a simple mistake. I think it might have been since he was actually making the problem and trying to dumb it down to the retards in my class that he made the mistake. Imo he is one of the best teachers in my school.

The only retards are the people who saw this problem and actually though It made any sense whatsoever, I mean honestly It is FBD and Forces!

Yeah that makes even more sense than changing the gravity by moving it to another planet, since you can now calculate the friction as well.
Thx anon at least I learned where this question went wrong from this thread.
