Describe how an inclined plane increases the force without changing the amount of work done

An inclined plane decreases the amount of force needed to move an object but increases the distance the onject needs to be moved. Since work = distance x force, whe amount of work stays the same.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

There is no short answer.

Explanation:

In theory, the gravitational pull between the planets depends on their total mass and the distance between them. The sun has a mass of 1.989x10^{30} kg, Jupiter has a mass of 1.898x10^{27} kg and Earth has a mass of 5.972x10^{24} kg.

Earth is closer to Jupiter than it is to the sun. The other planets that are behind jupiter are gone so that means the sun's pulling force's effect on jupiter is increased drastically since there is no force the balance that and that means that jupiter is going to get closer to earth.

The new center of mass of the new solar system is roughly located between earth and the sun, closer to earth.

I hope this answer helps.

An astronaut on Pluto attaches a small brass ball to a 1.00-m length of string and makes a simple pendulum. She times 10 complet
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2

The objects listed are placed at the top of a ramp and roll down to the bottom without slipping. Assuming that there is no air r
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:

PE = RE + KE

mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²

For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².

For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².

For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².

For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².

If we say k is the coefficient in each case:

mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²

For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:

mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²

gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²

2gh = (k + 1) v²

v² = 2gh / (k + 1)

The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity.  Therefore:

marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of an empty 2.0 x 101 kg vat made of
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Q = 7272 Kilojoules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 2.0*101kg = 202kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 10°C

Final temperature, T2 = 90°C

We know that the specific heat capacity of iron = 450J/kg°C

*To find the quantity of heat*

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

  • Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
  • dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 90 - 10

dt = 80°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Q = 202*450*80

Q = 7272KJ or 7272000 Joules.
