A block of mass 5 kg is being pushed over level ground by rod at 60 degrees to horizontal with force 40 N with acc. 1.5 what is the frictional force of the surface and draw a diagram with the forces acting on the block

Block has normal force, weight, friction and the force from the rod acting on itResultant force = 5*1.5=7.5horizontal component of force from rod = 207.5= 20 - FF= 12.5

Solve algebraically the simultaneous equations: 6x=5-2y 12.5=3x+3y

Rearrange both equations into the form ax + by = c. 3x+3y = 12.5 6x +2y = 5. 2) Make either x or y have the same coefficient in each equation. In this case we use x, to do this we multiply the first equation...

Why do we need the constant of integration?

Consider three simple functions F(x)=2x, G(x)=2x-6, H(x)=2x + π/2. We can differentiate these functions with respect to x to get F’(x)=f(x)=2, G’(x)=g(x)=2, H’(x)=h(x)=2. Clearly the derivatives of these fun...

Find the coordinates of the mid-point AB where A (-3,-3) and B (1,3)

X coordinates = (-3+1)/2 = (-2)/2 = - 1Y coordinates = (-3+3)/2 = (0) /2 = 0 Coordinates of the midpoint = (x,y) = (-1,0) If they were struggling to visualise it/to avoid simple mistakes, I would suggest qui...
