Answer:

m g Sin theta

Explanation:

If a body s placed on an inclined plane, then there are two component of weight of the body . One component is along the plane and the other is perpendicular to the plane.

Let there is an inclined plane which makes an angle theta with the horizontal. A body of mass m is placed on the inclined plane.

The component of weight along the plane is m g Sin theta

The component of weight perpendicular to the plane is m g Cos theta.

So, the force acting on the ball to move downhill is the force acting along teh plane. That means m g Sin theta.

5. A family of ducks is swimming in a pond at a speed of 3 m/s when a gust of wind hits them. By the time they reach the other s
ella [17]

Answer:

The time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial speed of the ducks, u = 3 m/s

The final speed of the ducks, v = 7 m/s

The acceleration of the duck, a = 1 m/s²

The formula for the acceleration is,

                               a = (v - u) / t

∴                               t = (v - u) / a

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                t = (7 - 3) / 1

                                  = 4 s

Hence, the time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Three types of electromagnetic waves, used to transmit various information

Explanation:

A form of energy waves having both electric & magnetic fields are Electromagnetic waves. Three types -

Radio Waves - These have longest wavelengths & transmit data through radio, satellites, radar .

Micro Waves - These have shorter wavelengths & are used in cooking appliances & predicting weather.

X rays - These have more short wavelength and can penerate soft tissues like skin & muscle, hence are used for medical examining
