The frictional force is directly proportional to the force that is perpendicular on the surface.
When the body is placed on a horizontal level with zero inclination, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force which always pulls the body down. The gravitational force, in this case, is the perpendicular force to the surface. Accordingly, this entire force is used to generate friction
Now as the inclination of the surface increases, the gravitational force is no longer the perpendicular force of the body, its value decreases, which means only a part is used to generate frictional force. Consequently, frictional force decreases.
When the inclination reaches 90 degrees, the gravitational force does not act along the normal and accordingly, no friction force is generated.
Hydroelectric power. That's just the term for electricity gained by using water, think of a water mill.
Answer:
0.31 m
Explanation:
m = mass of the block = 1.5 kg
H = height from which the block is released on ramp = 0.81 m
k = spring constant of the spring = 250 N/m
x = maximum compression of the spring
using conservation of energy
Spring potential energy gained by spring = Potential energy lost by block
(0.5) k x² = mgH
(0.5) (250) x² = (1.5) (9.8) (0.81)
x = 0.31 m
Answer:
Total length of spring 0.647 m
Explanation:
We have given mass of the person m = 150 kg
Acceleration due to gravity 
Spring constant k = 10000 N/m
Nominal length of spring = 0.50
According to hook's law
x = 0.147 m
So total length of spring = 0.50+0.147 = 0.647 m
Answer: some of the energy are shielded away by the ozone layer,
The rest warm the earth
Explanation:
Not all energy from the sun reaches the earth, some of the energy are shielded away by the ozone layer while the rest energy warm the earth
