Q

when a box is pulled upwards at a constant velocity

A

the acceleration is zero since the velocity is constant.
ma = t-w
0 = t-w
T = mg

Q

when there is an angle free body problem, Fn =?

A

mg - fy

17
Q

When there is an angle, how do you find sumfx when kinetic friction is there?

A

fx - fk

18
Q

what is fk?

A

meu(FN)

19
Q

for an incline, what does Fn =?

A

mgcos(theta)

20
Q

for a box sliding down with no friction, what is the fg2?

A

fg2 = mgsin(theta)

21
Q

how do you find the acceleration for a box sliding down an incline?

A

a = gsin(theta)

22
Q

On an incline, when velocity is constant, what does that mean?

A

acceleration is zero and fT = mumgcos(theta)

23
Q

On an incline, at a constant acceleration, what would you calculate the acceleration?

A

a = gsin(theta) - mugcos(theta))

24
Q

when an incline problem asks of tension what equation do you use?

A

Ft = m(g-a)
Ft2 = m(g+a)
