Even though the object is weightless, it would need inertia, I.e, you pushing it or any form of transportation. So you would still have to push that 500kg to just keep it moving in space. Say if it were a planet with less gravitational force, it would be weightless.
The force applied to the lever is 400 N, because the force applied by the lever (800 N) divided by the mechanical advantage of the lever (4) equals
400 N.
(800/4) = 200
It will accelerate at 6.2 m/s/s west.
Answer:
In order to understand all three questions one must have knowledge of rotational and transitional motion.
Explanation:
a.
Both energies could be compared by means of their motion,as Ball it self rolling and also moving linearly therefore it has combination of linear and rotational kinetic energy in the mean while block of ice just have linear kinetic energy therefore Basketball have more kinetic energy
in case of Basket ball
in case of Ice
b.
For momentum it is obvious that for basketball their is angular momentum along with linear momentum.
P = m v in case of linear momentum while
L= I w in case of angular momentum where I have rotational inertia and w is the angular velocity
their is no angular momentum in case of an ice block because it was moving in linear motion.
c.
Due to the additional angular momentum conserved in the case of basketball so it has more energy conserved as compared to ice block therefore frictional effect and ramp sloping does not hurt much motion of basketball as compared to ice blocking.
