Answer: Relative motion

Explanation: If two objects are moving either towards or away from each other with both having their velocities in a reference frame and someone is outside this reference frame seeing the motion of the two objects.

The observer ( in his own frame of reference) will measure a different velocity as opposed to the velocities of the two object in their own reference frame. p

Both the velocity measured by the observer in his own reference frame and the velocity of both object in their reference is correct.

Velocities of this nature that have varying values based on motion referenced to another body is known as relative velocity.

Motion of this nature is known as relative motion.

<em>Note that the word reference frame is simply any where the motion is occurring and the specified laws of motion is valid</em>

<em />

For this example of ours, the reference frame of the companion is the train and the telephone poles has their reference frame as the earth.

The companion will measure the velocity of the telephone poles relative to him and the velocity of the telephone pole relative to an observer outside the train will be of a different value.

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.
Lesechka [4]

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it. Because the contact between the bolt and the   pliers working surface is less.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage ?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, it is used to obtained efficiency of the given mechanical machine.

The efficiency to open the stubborn bolt depends upon the contact between the working surface of the pliers and the bolt.

The contact between the bolt and the top pair of pliers working surface is less. Its mechanical advantage is less.

Hence, the top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

To learn more about the mechanical advantage, refer to the link;

A ball is released from rest at a height of 10 m and falls freely to the
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The new kinetic energy would be 16 times greater than before.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is found using this formula:

  • KE = 1/2mv²
  • where KE = kinetic energy (J), m = mass (kg), and v = velocity (m/s)

We can see that kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity, meaning that if the speed was increased by 4 times, then the kinetic energy would get increased by a factor of 16.

The velocity just before the ball hits the ground can be found by the equation:

  • √(2gh)

Let's substitute h = 10 m and h = 40 m into this formula.

  • √(2g(10))
  • √(2g(40))

We can see that the velocity increases by a factor of 4 (10 m → 40 m).

Therefore, this means that the kinetic energy would also be increased by a factor of (4)² = 16. Thus, the answer is D) The new kinetic energy would be 16 times greater than before.
