Yes, and the use of that is to transfer energy so you don't have to put in as much force.

How does changing the lengthy but not the height of an inclined plane affect the work done to lift a load? PLZ HELP ME NOW'
Serhud [2]

Answer: Work Done would remain same.

Let us assume that the velocity is constant while taking the load up the inclined plane. Then, the kinetic energy would remain the same. This is because kinetic energy is dependent on velocity (K.E.=\frac{1}{2}mv^2). If that is constant, the kinetic energy would remain same. The potential energy is dependent on the height(P.E.=mgh). If the height is changed, then potential energy varies. In the question, it is mentioned that without changing the height, the length of the inclined plane is changed. Therefore, the potential energy would be same as before.

We know, work done is equal to potential energy plus kinetic energy. Since there is no change in any of these, the required work done would not change.

A particle accelerator fires a proton into a region with a magnetic field that points in the x-direction. (a) If the proton is m
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the magnetic field will act in a direction towards me.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

When a charged particle enters a magnetic field, it is deflected. The direction of travel of the particle is deflected, but the kinetic energy of the particle is not affected. <em>The force experienced by a charged particle as it enters a magnetic field that acts perpendicular to the path of the velocity of the particle, will produce a force that is perpendicular to both the direction of travel of the particle and the direction of the magnetic field.</em> In this case, the proton moves in the y-direction, the magnetic field is in the x-direction, therefore the force experienced by the particle will be towards me.

Two objects are in freefall. Object A experiences a gravitational force of
Vlad1618 [11]

<u>Answer:</u>

Both the objects A and B will have the same acceleration.

<u>Explanation :</u>

The objects will have the same acceleration as both are under free fall condition. When objects are under the free fall condition, the only force that acts on the object is its weight.

Weight is the force acting on a body of some mass, and the formula for finding the weight of a body is- Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity(g).

Therefore, here the different weight is due to the difference masses of both bodies, and not due to the different acceleration values.

If a substance besides water is changed from a gas to a liquid and then to a solid, what happens to the particles?
NARA [144]
The correct answer is they get closer together

Going from gas into a liquid makes the molecules move closer together, which happens again when you turn it into a solid.

Air pollution is an example of a. The underground economy. B. An external shock. C. A nonmarket activity. D. A negative external
devlian [24]

Answer:

D. A negative externality.

Explanation:

Particulate pollution is a form of pollution that is responsible for the degradation of the environment.

Particulate matter is also referred to as particle pollution or atmospheric aerosol particles and it can be defined as a complex microscopic mixture of liquid droplets and solid particles that are suspended in air.

An externality is typically an unwarranted cost or benefit by a manufacturer or producer of goods and services that affects a third party.

In Economics, an externality could either be positive or negative depending on its effect on a third party.

A negative externality arises when the production or consumption of a finished product or service has negative impact (cost) on a third party.

In conclusion, air pollution is an example of a negative externality because it causes harm to a third party.
