The answer is actually B

3 0

Answer:

B is the answer because if you throw a phone in space it will hit the ground way slower than if you threw it on earth.

earth pulls the phone back down faster because the earth's gravity is stronger!

Explanation:

The answer can't be A because you have less gravity in space.

C is incorrect because earth's gravity forces us down, but in space you can float

D is incorrect for the same reason as A

A solid sphere of weight 42.0 N rolls up an incline at an angle of 36.0°. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Part a)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v}{R})^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

KE = \frac{1}{5} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10} mv^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}(\frac{42}{9.81})(5.10^2)

KE = 77.95 J

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we know that

Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere

So we will have

mgLsin\theta = KE

\frac{42}{9.81}(9.81)L sin36 = 77.95

L = 3.16 m

Part c)

by equation of energy conservation we know that

\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgL sin\theta

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?
Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

R=A=B

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!
