Your cat Goldie (mass 8.50 kg ) is trying to make it to the top of a frictionless ramp 39.930 m long and inclined 27.0 ∘ above t

he horizontal. Since Goldie can’t get any traction on the ramp, you push her up the entire length of the ramp by exerting a constant 37.40 N force parallel to the ramp (there is a set of stairs alongside the frictionless ramp on which you can walk). If Goldie is moving at 2.000 m/s at the bottom of the ramp (assume she has gotten a running start), what is her speed when she reaches the top of the incline?

Answer:

The speed when se reaches the top of the incline is 0.28 m/s

Explanation:

The work done is equal to the change of kinetic energy, then:

Wg + Wf + Wn = ΔEk

Where

Wg = work done by gravity

Wf = work done by force

Wn = work done by normal force

-mgdsin\theta +Fd+0=\frac{1}{2} *m*(v_{2} ^{2} -v_{f} )

Where

m = 8.5 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

d = 39.93 m

F = 37.4 N

vf = 2 m/s

Replacing:

39.93*(-8.5*9.8*sin27+34.4)=\frac{1}{2} *8.5*(v_{2} ^{2} -2^{2} )\\v_{2} =0.28m/s

Explain what white light is and what it’s composed of.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The light that comes from the sun is called white light. Actually white light is a mixture of lights of different colors. When we look at the rainbow we can see the colors that make up the white light. This phenomenon, known as dispersion, occurs when a ray of composite light is refracted (refraction) in some medium, and its constituent colors are separated.

I attached you I picture where you can see this process

Basically, when the light passes through a glass prism, the different wavelengths that make up the beam of light travel inside it at different speeds and curl differently when entering and leaving resulting in a beam deviated from the initial direction and with its separate components.

Describe 2 applications of surface tension
Andrews [41]
Application of surface tension:
1) A needle placed on water can be made to float due to the surface tension of water.
2) Mosquito eggs can float on water because of its surface tension.
3) Toothpaste contains soap, which reduce the surface tension and helps it spread freely in the mouth.

Unit of work is derived unit why​
adoni [48]

The unit for work J can also be written as Nm. Therefore, it is a derived unit as different SI units are needed to obtain its value. In this case, its derived from force and distance.
