A.  The friction between two pieces of sandpaper is greater than
the friction between any of the pairs of surfaces.

D.  Juan should decrease the mass of his go-kart.  Then any force
that pushes it forward will give it greater forward acceleration.

Leona [35]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

<em>✔ We have: KE = PE (potential energy) </em>

<em>PE = m x g x h </em>

The potential energy that the pebble of mass 1 has is called PE1 and the potential energy that the pebble of mass 2 has is called PE2  

PE1 = PE2 ⇔ PE1/PE2 = 1

\frac{m_1\times g\times h}{m_2\times g\times 4h} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2\times 4} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2} = 4

The mass m1 is therefore 4 times greater than that of the stone of mass m2.

During a tennis volley, a ball that arrives at a player at 40 m/s is struck by the racquet and returned at 40 m/s. The other pla
Butoxors [25]

Answer:Racquet force is twice of Player force

Explanation:

Given

ball arrives at a speed of u=-40\ m/s

ball returned with speed of v=40\ m/s

average Force imparted by racquet on the ball is given by

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

where m=mass\ of\ ball

\Delta t=time of contact of ball with racquet

F_{racquet}=\frac{m(40-(-40))}{\Delta t}

F_{racquet}=\frac{80m}{\Delta t}-----1

When it land on the player hand its final velocity becomes zero and time of contact is same as of racquet

F_{player}=\frac{m(0-40)}{\Delta t}

F_{player}=\frac{-40m}{\Delta t}-----2

From 1 and 2 we get

F_{racquet}=-2F_{player}

Hence the magnitude of Force by racquet is twice the Force by player

During takeoff, an airplane climbs with a speed of 195 m/s at an angle of 15° above the horizontal. The speed and angle constitu
matrenka [14]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s

The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the figure for a graphic description of the problem. Notice that the x-component of the vector velocity (vx), the y-component (vy) and the vector velocity form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to obtain the magnitude of vx and vy:

We can find vx using the following trigonometric rule of a right triangle:

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 15° = vx / 195 m/s

195 m/s · cos 15° = vx

vx = 188 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s

To calculate the y-component we will use the following trigonometric rule:

sin α = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 15° = vy / 195 m/s

195 m/s · sin 15° = vy

vy = 50 m/s

The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.
