D. if it is dark, then an owl will find a mouse by the sound the mouse makes
Answer:
Speed of the ball relative to the boys: 25 km/h
Speed of the ball relative to a stationary observer: 35 km/h
Explanation:
The RV is travelling at a velocity of

Here we have taken the direction of motion of the RV as positive direction.
The boy sitting near the driver throws the ball back with speed of 25 km/h, so the velocity of the ball in the reference frame of the RV is

with negative sign since it is travelling in the opposite direction relative to the RV. Therefore, this is the velocity measured by every observer in the reference frame of the RV: so the speed measured by the boys is
v = 25 km/h
Instead, a stationary observer outside the RV measures a velocity of the ball given by the algebraic sum of the two velocities:
v = +60 km/h + (-25 km/h) = +35 km/h
So, he/she measures a speed of 35 km/h.
Answer:1.04 N
Explanation:
Given
Gravitational Force on the Platter is 
Tray makes an angle of 
This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter
Perpendicular Force 

Along the Tray


Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
Answer:
Answer in Explanation
Explanation:
Whenever we talk about the gravitational potential energy, it means the energy stored in a body due to its position in the gravitational field. Now, we know that in the gravitational field the work is only done when the body moves vertically. If the body moves horizontally on the same surface in the Earth's Gravitational Field, then the work done on the body is considered to be zero. Hence, the work done or the energy stored in the object while in the gravitational field is only possible if it moves vertically. This vertical distance is referred to as height. <u>This is the main reason why we require height in the P.E formula and calculations.</u>
The derivation of this formula is as follows:
Work = Force * Displacement
For gravitational potential energy:
Work = P.E
Force = Weight = mg
Displacement = Vertical Displacement = Height = h
Therefore,
P.E = mgh
