Answer:

Will accelerate with g.sinθ, where θ is the angle between the ground and the inclination of the slope.

Explanation:

When any mass is sliding down the inclined plane will be affected by the acceleration due to gravity and some component of this acceleration will act on the body.

Let θ be the angle of inclination of the inclined slope from the horizontal.

then from the attached figure we can clearly get the component of acceleration along the slope.

What role does actin and myosin play in the process of muscle contraction?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Muscle contraction thus results from an interaction between the actin and myosin filaments that generates their movement relative to one another. The molecular basis for this interaction is the binding of myosin to actin filaments, allowing myosin to function as a motor that drives filament sliding.

A 57 kg wagon is pulled with a constant net force of 38 N. Calculate the acceleration of the wagon. F = ma
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

<h2>0.67 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{38}{57} =  \frac{2}{3}   \\  = 0.666666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.67 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Suppose that you are headed toward a plateau 55 meters high. If the angle of elevation to the top of the plateau is 40degrees​,
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

x=65.55m

Explanation:

Let x be the distance to the shore

From trigonometry properties:

tan(40^{o} )=\frac{55m}{x} \\x=\frac{55m}{tan(40^{o} )} \\x=65.55m

A machinist is required to manufacture a circular metal disk with area 1900 cm2. (a) What radius produces such a disk? (Round yo
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

24.5987 cm

Explanation:

A = 1900 cm^2

Let r be the radius of disc.

The area of disc is given by

A = π r²

Where, π = 31.4

1900 = 3.14 x r²

r² = 605.095

r = 24.5987 cm

Juan and Kuri are on a carousel. Juan is closer to the center of the carousel than Kuri. Which statement describes their tangent
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.

Explanation:

Since Juan is closer to the center and Kuri is away from the center so we can say that Juan will move smaller distance in one complete revolution

As we know that the distance moved in one revolution is given as

d = 2\pi r

also the time period of revolution for both will remain same as they move with the time period of carousel

Now we can say that the speed is given as

v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}

so Juan will have less tangential speed. so correct answer will be

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.
