Mechanical energy is made when something is moved. The energy that is moving is kinetic. And potential energy is stored energy. Mechanical energy can be used to store energy and to cause moving energy. For instance: a slingshot. Pulling back the band creates potential energy and releasing it creates kinetic energy.
Galaxies are sprawling systems of dust, gas, dark matter, and anywhere from a million to a trillion stars that are held together by gravity. Nearly all large galaxies are thought to also contain supermassive black holes at their centers.
Answer:
Torque decreases .
Explanation:
The tape is pulled at constant speed , speed v is constant , so there is
v = ω r where ω is angular speed and r is radius , As radius decreases , angular speed ω increases , So there is angular acceleration .
Let it be α . Let I be moment of inertia of reel .
Reel is in the form of disc
I = 1/2 m r²
I x α = torque
1/2 m r² x α = torque
As the reel is untapped , its mass decreases , r also decreases , so torques also decreases .
Answer: A
Explanation: How large a parachute is (in other words, the parachute's surface area) affects its air resistance, or drag force. ... In the case of these parachutes, the drag force is opposite to the force of gravity, so the drag force slows the parachutes down as they fall.
