Answer:

Hence, work done= 287.54 J

Explanation:

Given data:

angle of ramp with the ground θ =20°

force applied = 76 N

work done on the crate to slide down 4 m down the ramp

W= F×d cosθ ( only the cos component of the force will slide the crate down)

W= 76×4×cos20= 287.54 J

Based on your observations of the six collisions, describe the physical difference between elastic and inelastic collisions.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Collisions are basically two types: Elastic, and inelastic collision. Elastic collision is defined as the colliding objects return quickly without undergoing any heat generation. Inelastic collision is defined as the where heat is generated, and colliding objects are distorted.

In elastic collision, the total kinetic energy, momentum are conserved, and there is no wasting of energy occurs. Swinging balls is the good example of elastic collision. In inelastic collision, the energy is not conserved it changes from one form to another for example thermal energy or sound energy. Automobile collision is good example, of inelastic collision.

Statement A: Area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.
pochemuha

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the area of a  rectangle A = Length *width

For statement A;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²

The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)

For statement B;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²

Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)

Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm²  is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.
