Answer:

Explanation:

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells. Also, industry (sterilization and disinfection) and the nuclear industry.

A 2.55 kg block starts from rest on a rough inclined plane that makes an angle of 60 degree with the horizontal. the coefficient

Answer:

Change in mechanical energy = work done by friction

so it is equal to

$W = -8.16 J$

Explanation:

As we know that change in mechanical energy must be equal to the work done by non conservative forces only

So here when block moves down the inclined plane then the work done by friction force is given as

$W = F.d$

here we have

$F = \mu F_n$

here we know that

$F_n = mg cos\theta$

so we have

$F_n = 2.55(9.81)(cos60)$

$F_n = 12.5 N$

Now the friction force on the block is given as

$F_f = \mu F_n$

$F_f = 0.25 \times 12.5$

$F_f = 3.13 N$

now work done by the friction is given as

$W = -(3.13)(2.61)$

$W = -8.16 J$
