Centripetal force and momentum have to do with movement. Gravity cannot balance gravity.

A wooden block is sitting on an inclined plane near the bottom. The student gave the block a flick and it moved up the inclined
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The block didn't slide due to balancing of gravitational force with friction force

Explanation:

When the block was given a flick the force provided an acceleration to it and it moved up the inclined plane. when the block reached top it was expected that it would slide back but it didn't this happened because of the frictional force acting on the bottom the block which was balancing the gravitational force component along the plane and this prevented sliding back of the block.

static friction  was balancing mg*sin(theta)

fs = mg*sin(theta)

Joey drives along the 110 South freeway and notices a mile marker that reads 260 miles. He drives until he reaches the 150 mile
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

85 miles .

Explanation:

Displacement along the 110 South freeway = 260 - 150  =  110 miles

Displacement along the 110 North freeway = 150 - 175   = - 25 miles

Net displacement = 110 - 25 = 85 miles

So Joey's displacement from the 260 mile marker is 85 miles .

Two marbles, one twice as heavy as the other, are dropped to the ground from the roof of a building. Just before hitting the gro
Andreyy89

Answer:

 B. twice as much kinetic energy

Explanation:

Lets take the mass of the first marble =2 m

the mass of the second marble = m

We know that velocity of particle does not depends on their mass that is the velocity of both mass will be same after dropping from the roof.

We know that kinetic energy of a mass is given as

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}Mv^2

Kinetic energy for heavier mass

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2m\times V^2

Kinetic energy for light mass

KE'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times V^2

KE=2 KE '

Form above two equation we can say that ,the kinetic energy for the heavier mass is twice the lighter mass.

Therefore the answer will be B.

14. If the spring constant of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor will the mass of the system need to change
klio [65]

Lets se

And

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \sqrt{k}T=2\pi\sqrt{m}

So

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow k\propto m

If spring constant is doubled mass must be doubled
