Model description by Paco:
Block sliding down an inclined plane
A stone block is lying on an inclined plane.Initially, the component of gravity along the plane surface, $ mg cos (\theta ) = F_{tangent} $ , is balanced by the force caused by static friction $ f_{static} $, which is proportional to the normal to the plane, $ N $ .
The model assume the mass of the block is m = 1 kg,
$ W = mg $
where $ W $ is the weight and $ g $ is the gravitational constant of 9.81 m/s^2
In equilibrium,
$ \sum F = 0 $
$ mg sin ( \theta ) - f_{static} = 0 $
$ mg cos ( \theta ) - N = 0 $
$ mg cos ( \theta ) - N = 0 $
In this model,
$ F_{tangent} = mg sin ( \theta ) $
$ F_{normal} = mg cos ( \theta ) $
However, the modulus of this force $ f_{static} $ cannot exceed a limit value of $ \mu | N| $ where $ \mu_{static} $ is the static friction coefficient between the block and the plane.
$ f_{static} \leq \mu_{static}N $ in the direction negative of the velocity vector.
In this model, when velocity = 0,
$ f_{static max} = \mu_{static}N $ and
$ f_{static } = -Math.min( mg sin( \theta ), f_{static max} ) $
since $ f_{static } $ cannot be greater than $ mg sin( \theta ) $ nor $ \mu_{static}N $
When the user increases the slope of the plane $ \theta $ by dragging slider of angle $ \theta $ , $ F_{tangent} $ ends up being larger than this limit and the block slides down the plane with kinetic friction present $ f_{kinetic} = \mu_{kinetic}N $ .
In this model, when velocity not equal to zero,
$ f_{kinetic} = - \mu_{kinetic}N $ .
The force caused by static friction is replaced by a (smaller) force of dynamic (or kinetic) friction $ f_{kinetic} $, given by $ \mu_{kinetic} |N| $ (where $ \mu_{kinetic} $ is the dynamic friction coefficient between the block and the plane, which is smaller then the static one, $ \mu_{static} $).
Condition for hint:
if (velocity = 0 and and only and totalForce(t,x,v) = 0), hint statetext = " in equilibrium,..."else if (velocity = 0 and and only and totalForce(t,x,v) != 0) hint statetext = " NOT in equilibrium,..."
else if (velocity != 0) hintstatetext= " NOT in equilibrium and in motion..."
Determine direction of motion and direction of friction
if (v===0){directionOfMotion=0;
}
else if (v<0){
directionOfMotion=-1;
}
else if (v>0){
directionOfMotion=+1;
}
Custom function:
function totalForce(time,position,velocity) {
if (velocity!==0) return Ft+directionOfMotion*dynamicFriction; // in motion
return Math.max(0,staticFriction+Ft); // not in motion
}
changes made:
- re-implemented on EJSS
- added a scaleforce to draw the forces to user's choice
- made the static and kinetic friction drawn from same vector as visible===true was buggy
- added more hints to make explicit in equilibrium and not in equilibrium when net force.
- made the color dynamic with change in static to kinetic
- added paco as co-author as the EJS codes came from the man :)
- customized to nelson's request added menu for rubber, wood, iron and glass
- added mass inputs
- added graph of friction versus time
Great post. Thanks for sharing!
