When the comet is closest to the Sun,
it has its maximum kinetic energy
and minimum gravitational potential energy. When the comet is far away from the Sun, it has maximum gravitational potential energy and minimal kinetic energy. It's faster when it's close because the Sun's gravity is pulling the comet closer. The opposite for when it gets farther away
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
angular speed of rotation of friction-less platform, 
moment of inertia with extended weight, 
moment of inertia with contracted weight, 
<u>Now we use the law of conservation of angular momentum:</u>
The angular speed becomes faster as the mass is contracted radially near to the axis of rotation.
Answer:
the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the wagon, u = 4 m/s
mass of the wagon, m = 35 kg
energy applied to the wagon, E = 350 J
The final velocity of the wagon is calculated as;
E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)
Therefore, the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
As far as I know, elastic distortion (or elastic deformation or temporary distortion) is the case when an object is deformed by virtue of a cause and after the cause is removed, it regains its original shape in a finite amount of time. If it fails to attain its original shape in finite amount of time or takes infinite time it becomes plastic or permanent distortion.
Inelastic materials, simply put, are non elastic materials. They do not show a fixed trend of deformation vs applied force; in fact, they might not deform at all (rigid materials) or the deformation observed is not completely recoverable; on removal of the applied force, the material doesn't return to its original shape, but to a permanent deformed shape. Such materials are called Plastic materials.
A typical material like steel shows all these forms under different conditions of loading (applied force). For extremely low magnitudes of forces, it is practically rigid. Increasing magnitudes of force show a linear elastic response, while further increase show a non-linear, plastic response, till rupture occurs when the material breaks.
Answer:
0.41
Explanation:
A 49 N block has a mass of 5 kg:
49/9.8
A horizontal force of 50 N giving it an acceleration of 6 m/s^2 means that 30 N is taken up by the acceleration
This leaves 20 N to take care for friction. so the coefficient of friction is:
20/49 = 0.41.
