Answer: 580 N

Refer to attached figure.

The angle of inclination is 22 degrees

weight (gravitational force) acts downwards.

Normal force is a contact force which acts perpendicular to the point of contact.

The horizontal component (mg cos 22 ) balances the normal force and the vertical component balances the frictional force.

Gravitational force on an object = mg

The normal force N= mg cos 22

\Rightarrow mg =\frac{N}{cos22}=\frac{538 N}{0.927}=580 N

<u>Answer</u>

580


<u>Explanation</u>

The gravitational force acts perpendicularly downwards (towards the center of the earth).

The normal force of the box  is perpendicular to the slanting ramp. This force we are given 538 N.

The gravitational force is the component of this 538 N.

∴ Cos22° = 538/Y  Where y is the gravitational force.

  Cos22° = 538/Y

  Y× Cos22° = 538

  Y = 538/Cos22°

    = 580.25

Answer to the nearest whole number = 580.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

The intensity, I, of the sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, r, from the source.

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Hence,

I_1r_1^2 = I_2r_2^2

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}}

From the question, I_2 is half of I_1

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{0.5I_1}}

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{2}

r_2 = 113\text{ m}\sqrt{2} = 160 \text{ m}

How can a 1kg ball have more kinetic energy than a 100kg ball? Explain both using words and by providing a numerical example
MariettaO [177]

1 kg ball can have more kinetic energy than a 100 kg ball as increase in velocity is having greater impact on K.E than increase in mass.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know kinetic energy can be judged or calculated by two parameters only which is mass and velocity. As kinetic energy is directly proportional to the (velocity)^2 and increase in velocity leads to greater effect on translational Kinetic Energy. Here formula of Kinetic Energy suggests that doubling the mass will double its K.E but doubling velocity will quadruple its velocity:

\text { Kinetic Energy }=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Better understood from numerical example as given:

If a man A having weight 50 kg run with speed 5 m/s and another man B having 100 kg weight run with 2.5 m / s. Which man will have more K.E?

This can be solved as follows:

\text { Kinetic Energy of } \mathrm{A}=\frac{1}{2} 50 \times 5^{2}=625 \mathrm{J}

\text { Kinetic Energy bf } \mathrm{B}=\frac{1}{2} 100 \times 2.5^{2}=312.5 \mathrm{J}

It shows that man A will have more K.E.

Hence 1 kg ball can have more K.E than 100 kg ball by doubling velocity.
