Answer:

When the ball is held motionless above the floor, the ball possesses only GPE  energy.If the ball is dropped, its GPE energy decreases as it falls.If the ball is dropped, its KE energy increases as it falls.

Explanation:

If the ball is held motionless, then its kinetic energy is equal to zero, since kinetic energy depends on the velocity. And the ball is held above the ground, which means it possesses gravitational potential energy.

If the ball is dropped, its height will decrease, therefore its gravitational potential energy will decrease. Along the way, the ball will be in free fall, and therefore its velocity will increase, hence its kinetic energy.

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\U = mgh

A 100g block lies on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 15 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio
Fed [463]

Answer:

Mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 34.16 g

Explanation:

The vertical forces (with respect to the inclined plane) acting on the 100 g block include the component of the weight of the block in the direction vertical to the inclined plane and the normal reaction of the plane on the block.

And sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces.

N = mg cos θ

m = 100 g = 0.10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

θ = 15°

N = (0.1×9.8×cos 15°) = 0.946582 N

The horizontal forces (With respect to the inclined plane) include the frictional force (acting upwards for the inclined plane, opposite to the intended direction of motion), the Tension in the rope (acting downwards, away from the 100 g block) and the horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block, F, (also acting downards).

For the body to slide down the inclined plane at constant speed, the downward sloping forces must balance the frictional force, that is, there will be no acceleration.

Frictional force = Tension + F

Frictional force = μN

where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.60

N = normal reaction = 0.9466 N

Frictional force = Fr = (0.60 × 0.9466) = 0.56796 N = 0.568 N

The horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block (also acting downards) = mg sin θ

F = (0.10 × 9.8 × sin 15°) = 0.253624 N

Tension in the rope = T = ?

Fr = F + T

T = Fr - F = 0.568 - 0.253624 = 0.314376 N = 0.3144 N

But the balance on the rope now has the total weight on the container (weight of container + weight on the container) to be equal to 2T.

2T = mg

2 × 0.3144 = 9.8m

m = 0.06416 kg = 64.16 g.

Mass of the container = 30 g

So, mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 64.16 - 30 = 34.16 g

Hope this Helps!!!

1. Indica cuáles son los reactivos y productos de la reacción química representada por la ecuación siguiente, y señala en que es
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Los reactivos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:

  • Mg: estado sólido
  • HCl: estado acuoso

Los productos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:

  • MgCl₂: estado acuoso
  • H₂: estado gaseoso

Explanation:

Una reacción química es un proceso por el cual una o más sustancias se transforman en otra u otras sustancias con propiedades diferentes. En otras palabras, las reacciones químicas son procesos en los que los átomos rompen sus enlaces químicos y forman otros nuevos, cambiando la naturaleza de las sustancias que intervienen.

En una ecuación química se representan dos términos. En el primero, el de la  derecha, se escriben los reactivos, expresados mediante sus fórmulas químicas  correspondientes y separados por un signo más. Por otro lado, el término de la izquierda, en  el que aparecen los productos, también representados por sus formulas químicas  correspondientes y con signos más entre ellos. Entre ambos términos suele ponerse  una flecha que indica que se ha producido la reacción química correspondiente.

Las sustancias que hay antes de producirse el cambio y que desaparecen se llaman reactivos. Las sustancias que hay después de producirse el cambio y que aparecen o se generan se llaman productos.

El estado de agregación en una reacción química se indica poniendo detrás del nombre o la fórmula de la sustancia y entre paréntesis la notación siguiente:

  • Sustancias sólidas (s)
  • Sustancias líquidas (l)
  • Sustancias gaseosas (g)
  • Sustancias disueltas en agua (aq)

En este caso tienes la reacción química:

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) -> MgCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)

Entonces, <u><em>en este caso los reactivos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:</em></u>

  • <u><em>Mg: estado sólido</em></u>
  • <u><em>HCl: estado acuoso</em></u>

<u><em>Por otro lado, los productos, con su correspondiente estado de agregación, son:</em></u>

  • <u><em>MgCl₂: estado acuoso</em></u>
  • <u><em>H₂: estado gaseoso</em></u>
