How does an inclined plane trade force for distance??

Physics
1 answer:
liq [111]3 years ago

The sloping surface of the inclined plane<span> supports part of the weight of the object as it moves up the slope. As a result, it takes less </span>force<span> to move the object uphill. The </span>trade<span>-off </span>is<span> that the object must be moved over a greater </span>distance<span> than if it were moved straight up to the higher elevation.</span>

You throw a rock horizontally out of a 7th story window. You time that it takes 3.7 seconds to hit the ground, and measure that
Nady [450]
Since we are only looking at the vertical height, we can use the free fall equation to find the height:
h = 0.5*g*t^2, where h is height in m, g is acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2), and t is time in seconds
h = 0.5*(9.81 m/s^2)*(3.7 s)^2
h = 67.15 m
Therefore, the 7th floor window is 67.15 m above ground level.

A bicycle is heading West. It goes 5000m in 500s what's its velocity
dybincka [34]
There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on the given information's the answer to the question can easily be determined.
Distance covered by the bicycle = 5000 meter
Time taken by the bicycle to reach the distance = 500 second.
Velocity of the bicycle = Distance / Time taken
                                   = 5000/500 meter/second
                                   = 50 meter/second
So the velocity of the bicycle is 50 meter per second. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can always use this procedure for solving similar problems.

Unpolarized light is incident upon two ideal polarizing filters that do not have their transmission axes aligned. If 19% of the
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

51.94°

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light

I_2 = Light after passing though second filter = 0.19I_0

Polarized light passing through first filter

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Polarized light passing through second filter

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.19I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.19\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.38}\\\Rightarrow \theta=51.94^{\circ}

The angle between the two filters is 51.94°

A student drops two metallic objects into a 120-g steel container holding 150 g of water at 25°C. One object is a 206-g cube of
spayn [35]

Answer:

Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g

Explanation:

For an isolated system as given the energy lost and gains in the system will be zero therefore sum of all transfer of energy will be zero,as the temperature will also remain same

A specific heat formula is given as                  

Energy Change = Mass of liquid x Specific Heat Capacity x Change in temperature

                                       Q =  m×c×ΔT

                        Heat gain by aluminium + heat lost by copper  = 0    (1)

For Aluminium:

      Q = m\times0.897\frac{J}{g.k}\times(25-5)

      Q = m x 17.94 joule

For Copper:

Q= 206g\times0.385\frac{J}{g.k} \times(88-25)

       Q= 4996.53 Joule

from eq 1

     m x 17.94 = 4996.53

     mass of aluminium = \frac{4996.53}{17.94} g

    Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g
