Yolanda might put more items to the desk to make it heavier, requiring more force.

We need to learn more about the force acting on an object in order to locate the solution.

<h3>How can the force that is required to modify the motion be increased?</h3>
  • We are aware that the word for force is,

                            F=ma

where m denotes the object's mass and an its acceleration

  • There are two ways to increase the force required to alter the motion of the table.
  • One is to increase the mass, and the other is to accelerate it more quickly.
  • Otherwise, there will be a lot of friction between the surfaces, making it difficult to move without exerting a lot of force.

We can infer from this that Yolanda could add items to the desk to increase its mass, necessitating the use of additional force.

In a closed system, what happens to the total energy of the system as energy conversion takes place?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

In a closed system, the total energy is conserved or remains the same as energy transformations take place.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

This law of conservation of energy applies only to a closed system. A closed system is a system which does not exchange energy with its surroundings. All forms of energy conversions occurring within a closed system does not result in an increase or decrease of the total energy of the system, rather, energy remains constant. For example, the universe is a closed system in that all forms of energy conversions occurs within it and energy is not exchanged with an external environment. However, the earth is not a closed system as some of the energy it receives from the sun can be radiated out into space. Since it's an open system, its total energy can change.

What is the difference between speed and velocity?
ElenaW [278]
B - speed and direction are combined in another quantity, called velocity. It can be thought of as its speed in a particular direction. Speed is the corresponding scalar quantity, because it does not have a direction.

A force of 6600 N is exerted on a piston that has an area of 0.010 m2
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Choice A: approximately 0.015\; \rm m^2, assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.

Explanation:

Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:

\displaystyle P_1 = \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{6.600\times 10^3\; \rm N}{1.0\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m^{2}} = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}.

By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2} on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.

Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}. In other words:

P_2 = P_1 = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}.

To achieve a force of 9.900 \times 10^3\; \rm N, the surface area of the second piston should be:

\displaystyle A_2 = \frac{F_2}{P_2} = \frac{9.900\times 10^{3}\; \rm N}{6.6\times 10^5\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}} \approx 0.015\; \rm m^{2}.

A nonzero net force acts on a particle and does work. Which one of the following statements is true?
arlik [135]

Answer:

option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

the kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of the speed of the body.

As the kinetic energy change, the speed of the body also change.

Option (D) is correct.
