First, we need to break down the force into its components. Since the incline is at an angle of 27°, we can find the force parallel to the incline by multiplying the total force by the cosine of the angle. So, F_parallel = F * cos(27°).
Now, since the incline is frictionless, the force parallel to the incline is also the force responsible for the acceleration of the block. So, a = F_parallel / m, where m is the mass of the block.
Plugging in the values, we get a = (47.0 N * cos(27°)) / 5.70 kg. Crunching those numbers gives us an acceleration of approximately 5.43 m/s².
So, the magnitude of the acceleration of the block is about 5.43 m/s². Isn't physics fascinating? I'm dancing in my clown shoes just thinking about it!

In this case, the force applied to the block is given as F = 47.0 N, and the mass of the block is given as M = 5.70 kg.
The force can be divided into two components: one parallel to the incline and one perpendicular to the incline. Since the incline is frictionless, the only force acting on the block parallel to the incline is its weight component, which can be calculated as follows:
F_parallel = M * g * sin(theta)
where g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2) and theta is the angle of the incline (27°).
F_parallel = 5.70 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * sin(27°)
F_parallel ≈ 27.0 N
Now, we can find the acceleration of the block using Newton's second law:
F_parallel = M * a
where a is the acceleration.
27.0 N = 5.70 kg * a
Dividing both sides by 5.70 kg:
a = 27.0 N / 5.70 kg
a ≈ 4.74 m/s^2
Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the block is approximately 4.74 m/s^2.

In this case, we are given the force applied to the block (F = 47.0 N) and the mass of the block (M = 5.70 kg). However, the force we are given is not the net force, but rather the applied force. We need to find the net force acting on the block to determine the acceleration.
Since the incline is frictionless, the only forces acting on the block are the gravitational force (mg) and the component of the applied force parallel to the incline (F_parallel). The force perpendicular to the incline (F_perpendicular) does not affect the motion.
To calculate the net force, we need to determine the parallel component of the applied force. This can be done by calculating the force of gravity acting on the block along the incline. The force of gravity (mg) can be split into two components: one perpendicular to the incline (mg_cosθ) and one parallel to the incline (mg_sinθ), where θ is the angle of incline (27°).
The force parallel to the incline (F_parallel) is equal in magnitude to the component of gravity along the incline (mg_sinθ), so we have:
F_parallel = mg_sinθ
Since the block is not moving vertically, the perpendicular component of the applied force will cancel out the component of the gravitational force perpendicular to the incline:
mg_cosθ = F_perpendicular
Now we can find the net force acting on the block:
Net force = F_parallel - F_perpendicular
= mg_sinθ - mg_cosθ
Substituting the known values:
Net force = (5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(sin 27°) - (5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(cos 27°)
Finally, we can use Newton's second law of motion to find the acceleration:
F = ma
Net force = ma
Substituting the expression for the net force:
(5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(sin 27°) - (5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(cos 27°) = (5.70 kg) * a
Now we can solve for the acceleration (a) by rearranging the equation:
a = [(5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(sin 27°) - (5.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(cos 27°)] / (5.70 kg)
Calculating this expression will give us the magnitude of the acceleration of the block.
