NET FORCE = 0
CONDITION FOR EQUILIBRIUM
When the forces acting on an object
add up to zero, the object is said to
be in equilibrium.
IDENTIFY THE FORCES ACTING ON THE OBJECT
What will
happen if the
weight exceeds
the tensile
strength of the
cables?

A block with a mass of 20kg rests on an
earthbound plane elevated 35° off the horizontal.
If the coefficient of kinetic friction for this surface
is 0.54, what is the acceleration of the block?
���� = �� ��� � - ��
���� = 112.4N - 86.7N
���� = 25.7N
���� = ma
25.7N = (20kg) a
a = 1.3 m/s2
