As a 2-kg ball rolls down a ramp, the net force on it is 10 N. What is the acceleration?

1 answer:

4 0

That all depends on the direction of the force. If the force is parallel to the ramp, then the acceleration of the ball is 5 m/s^2. If the force isn't parallel to the ramp, then the acceleration is less.

A man pushes an 250-N crate at constant speed a distance of 30.0 m upward along a rough slope that makes an angle of 60° with th

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

6495.19 Joule

Explanation:

F = Weight of the crate = 250 N

d = Distance the cart is pushed = 30 m

θ = Angle of inclination = 60°

The weight of the crate will be resloved into two components

Fdsinθ and Fdcosθ

Work done by the force of gravity is

W = Fdsinθ

⇒W = 250×30×sin60

⇒W = 6495.19 Joule

∴ The work done by the force of gravity is 6495.19 Joule

A 21 g ball is shot from a spring gun whose spring has a force constant of 579 N/m. The spring can be compressed 1 cm. How high

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The ball will go 0.14 meters high if the gun is aimed vertically

Explanation:

The energy in the spring → Energy, E = $\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

Where E = energy in the spring

k = Spring constant

x = Spring compression or stretch

Therefore E = $\frac{1}{2} 579*0.01^2 = 0.02895 J$

The spring energy is transferred to the ball as kinetic energy based on the first law of thermodynamics which states that energy is neither created nor destroyed

Kinetic energy = KE = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$
