Newton’s first law of inertia
Less force, same work
Answer:
the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s
Explanation:
Given that:
mass of the block slides = 1.5 - kg
height = 10 m
Force constant = 200 N/m
distance of rough surface patch = 20 m
coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15
In order to determine the speed of the block when it reaches point B.
We consider the equation for the energy conservation in the system which can be represented by:






v = 14 m/s
Thus; the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s
Answer:
3.6km South East
Explanation:
Displacement is the shortest distance between the starting point and the ending point and the direction it is displaced in. To calculate the displacement we can use the pythagoras theorem because the 3km East and the 2km south form the two shorter sides of a right angled triangle between the starting and ending points. So, the displacement is the length C of the triangle which we can calculate as follows:
Pythagoras Theorem:
a^2+b^2=c^2
(2)^2+(3)^2=c^(2)
4+9=c^2
Square root 13 = c
c=3.6km (1dp)
The total displacement is 3.6km and is in the approximate direction of South East (because he travelled east and south).
Hope this helped!
Answer: Machines according to Wikipedia is "a mechanical structure that uses power to apply forces and control movement to perform an intended action. Machines can be driven by animals and people, by natural forces such as wind and water, and by chemical, thermal, or electrical power, and include a system of mechanisms that shape the actuator input to achieve a specific application of output forces and movement ".
A pulley is a wheel on an axle or shaft that is created to support movement, it makes carry loads easier.
A pulley is a simple type of machine, which in the above explained case makes carrying a load easier.
