1)

Answer: A inclined plane and staircase reaching the same height. Work depends on initial and final position only.

Explanation:

The amount of work done does not depend on path length. It depends on initial and final position. It is given by gravitational potential energy.

W = m g h

Where, m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Let the mass of the object be m. Two different paths ( one inclines plane and another staircase) are taken to same point. The object would gain same gravitational potential energy because it depends on the height through which the object is taken and not the actual path length.

W ∝ h.

2)

Spring constant can be defined as the ratio of amount of force acting spring  with the displacement caused due to the force. A deformed elastic object has elastic potential energy stored in it which is equal to the work done to deform the object. It is proportional to the spring constant and amount of stretched distance.

Equilibrium is reached when the net force acting on the spring is zero. In equilibrium state, the object has natural extension.  An object is said to possess elastic potential energy  when force is applied and object deforms relative to original equilibrium shape or length.

Why do deer depend on plants to survive
jarptica [38.1K]
Deer depend on plants to survive because they are herbivores. Herbivores are animals that only eats plants and fruits in order to survive. Deer's meal includes grass and evergreen plants. If grass is unavailable, they eat whatever food like fallen leaves, twigs, bushes and other woody plants.

The maximum speed with which you can throw a stone is about 20 m/s. Can you hit a window 45 m away horizontally and 10 m up from
Allushta [10]

Answer:

 y = 17 m

Explanation:

For this projectile launch exercise, let's write the equation of position

          x = v₀ₓ t

          y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

let's substitute

          45 = v₀ cos θ t

          10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

the maximum height the ball can reach where the vertical velocity is zero

 

           v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

Let's write our system of equations

         45 = v₀ cos θ  t

         10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

         0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which it can be solved.

Let's use the last two

        v₀ sin θ = 9.8 t

we substitute

        10 = (9.8 t) t - ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = 4.9 t2

        t = √ (10 / 4.9)

        t = 1,429 s

Now let's use the first equation and the last one

         45 = v₀ cos θ t

         0  = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

         9.8 t = v₀  sin θ

         45 / t = v₀ cos θ

we divide

         9.8t / (45 / t) = tan θ

          tan θ = 9.8 t² / 45

          θ = tan⁻¹ ( 9.8 t² / 45 )

          θ = tan⁻¹ (0.4447)

          θ = 24º

Now we can calculate the maximum height

         v_y² = v_{oy}^2 - 2 g y

         vy = 0

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 24)²/2 9.8

          y = 3,376 m

the other angle that gives the same result is

       θ‘= 90 - θ

       θ' = 90 -24

       θ'= 66'

for this angle the maximum height is

 

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 66)²/2 9.8

           y = 17 m

thisis the correct

A block of mass 27.00 kg sits on a horizontal surface with, coefficient of kinetic
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The force is  F  = 172 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  mass of the block is  m_b  = 27.0 \ kg

     The  coefficient of  static friction is  \mu_s  =  0.65

     The coefficient of kinetic friction is  \mu_k  =  0.50

The  normal force acting on the block is  

      N  =  m *  g

substituting values

     N  =   27 *  9.8

     N  =   294.6  \  N

Given that the force we are to find is the force required to get the block to start moving then the force acting against this force is the static frictional force which is mathematically evaluated as

        F_f  =  \mu_s  *  N

substituting values

        F_f  =   0.65 *  264.6

        F_f  =   172 \ N

Now for this  block to move the force require is  equal to F_f i.e

       F= F_f

=>    F  = 172 \ N

Hi Guys.I was just wondering if given two specific heat capacities (In my case copper and water) do you add them both together o
timama [110]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

using law of HC(heat capacity), which is

  • heat loss=heat gain
  • energy H=MCQ

Where M is mass of substance,C is specific heat capacity, and Q is temperature change

In case of two substance

  • the H = Mc*Cc*Q+Mw*Cw*Q(provided the initial and final temperature are given)

Radio waves are readily diffracted around buildings, whereas light waves are negligibly diffracted around buildings. This is bec
Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.
