The value of theta can best be determined from the slope of a graph of position as a function of the square of time.

Let the angle of inclination of the track, = θ

Let the acceleration of the object = a

Generally, the slope of a graph is given as;

$tan(\theta) = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$

The vertical component of the force on the object along the track is calculated as;

$Fcos(\theta) = mg$

The horizontal component of the force on the object along the track is calculated as;

$Fsin(\theta) = ma$

The coefficient of friction on the object is calculated as;

$\mu_k = \frac{Fsin(\theta)}{Fcos(\theta)} = \frac{ma}{mg} \\\\ tan(\theta)= \frac{a}{g} \\\\ tan(\theta)= \frac{dv/dt}{g} \\\\v = \frac{dx}{dt} \\\\tan(\theta) = \frac{dx^2/d^2t}{g} \\\\tan(\theta) = \frac{dx^2}{d^2t\ \times \ g }$

Thus, the value of theta can best be determined from the slope of a graph of position as a function of the square of time.

Answer from: laneey3760

The value of θ can be determined by slope of graph as function of square of time.

Explanation:

Lets take

Mass = m

Angle of inclination =θ

From diagram

mg sinθ = m a

a=g sinθ

We know that

$S=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Given that block is in rest position initially.

u= 0

$S=\dfrac{1}{2}(gsin\theta ) t^2$

We can say that

S∝ t² If we assume that t and x and S as y y= m x

$S=\dfrac{1}{2}(gsin\theta ) t^2$

Here slope ,m

$m=\dfrac{1}{2}(gsin\theta )$

So the value of θ can be determined by slope of graph as function of square of time.

Answer from: Quest

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
