A package weighing 2000 N is placed on a ramp and attached to a cable that runs over a massless, frictionless pulley, and a force F is applied to the cable as shown in the Figure below. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block
and ramp is hk = 0.2, and the coefficient of static friction between the block and the ramp is js = 0.5. The ramp is
inclined at an angle of 42° with respect to the horizontal.
(a) Determine the minimum force F needed to prevent the block from sliding down the ramp.
(b) The cable suddenly snaps. What is the acceleration of the block?

The chart shows the costs and shipping times for materials that a company needs to build a new product. which describes the best trade-off if the company needs to start building their product within the next two years? they should order the domestic materials because it is always best to choose the fastest shipping time. they should order the imported materials because it is always best to choose the lowest cost for materials. since the shipping time is longer, they should order the domestic materials because the additional cost is worth it to get the materials in time. even though the shipping time is longer, they should order the imported materials because they are less expensive and should arrive in plenty of time to build the product.
