Answer:

Collection of stars in the night sky that is popularly known.

The Great Diamond, Big dipper

Explanation:

An asterism is a collection of stars in the night sky that is popularly known. Asterisms are not recognised by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) as constellations. They are not constellations as constellations are a region of the night sky.

The Great Diamond is an asterism which consists of the four stars namely Cor Caroli in Canes Venatici, Denebola, Spica and Arcturus. Big dipper is also an asterism.

how do you find work when only given the angle a sled is pulled, the mass, the coefficent of kinetic friction and distance
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

W = F * s    

Work done equals applied force * distance traveled

Apparent weight = M g (1 - sin θ)     since some of applied force will lighten sled

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

F cos θ = force applied to motion of sled

s = distance traveled

[μ M g (1 - sin θ)] cos θ * s = work done in moving sled

Note that F = μ M g    if applied force is in the horizontal direction

What is work - energy theorem ??​
Elden [556K]

The work-energy theorem explains the idea that the net work - the total work done by all the forces combined - done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object. After the net force is removed (no more work is being done) the object's total energy is altered as a result of the work that was done.

This idea is expressed in the following equation:

is the total work done

is the change in kinetic energy

is the final kinetic energy

is the initial kinetic energy

A ball of 10kg falls from rest from a height of 150m, Neglating air resistance, calculate its kinetic energy after falling a dis
GaryK [48]

Answer: 3920\ J

Explanation:

Given

mass of ball m=10 kg

It is placed at a height of 150 m

It is dropped from the height and allowed to free fall for 40 m

Velocity acquired by the ball during this fall is given by v^2-u^2=2as

Insert u=0, a=g

\Rightarrow v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 40\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{784}\\\Rightarrow v=28\ m/s

Kinetic energy at this instant

K.E.=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 28^2\\\\\Rightarrow K.E.=3920\ J
