Ques. A uniform cylinder of mass 4.3 kg and radius 0.4 m rolls down a ramp inclined at an angle 0.15 radians to the horizontal. What is the acceleration of the cylinder in m/s2 ?

Respuesta :

The acceleration of the cylinder in m/s2 is 0.973 meters per seconds squared.

What is acceleration?

Acceleration is the change of velocity with time. The unit is usually meters per seconds squared.

mass = 4.3 kg

radius = 0.4m

angle of inclination, ∅ = 0.15 radians

How to solve acceleration of the cylinder in m/s^2

acceleration of the cylinder in m/s^2

= ( g + sin ∅ ) / 1 + 0.5

= ( 9.81 + sin 0.15 ) / 1.5

take note angle is in radians not degrees

= 1.46 / 1.5

= 0.973 meters per seconds squared
