Answer:

Explanation:The sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is called mechanical energy.

The kinetic energy is possessed by an object by virtue of its motion and the potential energy is due to height of the object under the action of gravity.

Mathematically,

v is the velocity of the object

h is the height from ground

We know that the potential energy at topmost point is maximum and it is least at ground.

So, from the given figure it is clear that the ball in box C has less potential energy than the ball in box B.

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The ball in box C has less potential energy than the ball in box B".

The ability of solid rock to flow is called _____.
zysi [14]
The ability of solid rock to flow is called Plasticity.

Plasticity is the deformation of a solid mateial which resulted in non reversible changes of shape in response to applied force.

Another example of plasticity is when you bend metal through a forcer force to create an art or kitchen set

A 16.2 kg person climbs up a uniform ladder with negligible mass. The upper end of the ladder rests on a frictionless wall. The
S_A_V [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of forces. We will decompose the forces in the vertical and horizontal sense, and at the same time, we will perform summation of torques to eliminate some variables and obtain a system of equations that allow us to obtain the angle.

The forces in the vertical direction would be,

\sum F_x = 0

f-N_w = 0

N_w = f

The forces in the horizontal direction would be,

\sum F_y = 0

N_f -W =0

N_f = W

The sum of Torques at equilibrium,

\sum \tau = 0

Wdcos\theta - N_wLsin\theta = 0

WdCos\theta = fLSin\theta

f = \frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

The maximum friction force would be equivalent to the coefficient of friction by the person, but at the same time to the expression previously found, therefore

f_{max} = \mu W=\frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{d}{\mu L})

Replacing,

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{0.9}{0.42*2})

\theta = 46.975\°

Therefore the minimum angle that the person can reach is 46.9°
