A box is sliding down a ramp how many force vectors does the box have

Well you’d have a force due to gravity, the normal force which will be perpendicular to the sources (meaning you’ll have components to this vector), and you’d have the force of friction opposing the motion of the box. I’m also assuming there’s no air resistance. In this case you’d have three vector forces.

A student asks the following question:
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

  Natalie says that all things with mass have a gravitational field, but the force is very weak and cannot be perceived around small objects.

Explanation:

The force due to gravity is proportional to the mass of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects. The Earth is so massive that the force due to its gravity is much greater than the force between objects on the counter.

If there were no friction, the objects might move toward each other, depending on what other masses were near them tending to cause them to move in other directions.

Natalie's explanation is about the best.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The universal gravitational constant was determined by Henry Cavendish in the late 18th century using lead balls weighing 1.6 pounds and 348 pounds. His experiment was enclosed in a large wooden box to minimize outside effects. While these masses are somewhat greater than those of a glue bottle and stapler, the experiment shows the force of gravity between "small" objects <em>can</em> be measured.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

During the segments B - C and D - E, the car stopped since the y axis is the distance and the distance stayed the same in between those segments.

For a simpler answer, the flat horizontal lines on the graph are the times when the car was stopped.

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity
dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.
