Answer:

Gravitational potential energy transforms to motion energy (rolling) and thermal energy (friction).

A block of mass 3.6 kg, sliding on a horizontal plane, is released with a velocity of 1.7 m/s. The block slides and stops at a d

pentagon [3]

Answer:

The block would have slid <u>12.6 m</u> if its initial velocity were increased by a factor of 2.8.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block (m) = 3.6 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 1.7 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Displacement (S) = 1.6 m

First we will find the acceleration of the block.

Using the equation of motion, we have:

$v^2=u^2+2aS\\\\a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2S}$

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'a'. This gives,

$a=\frac{0-1.7^2}{2\times 1.6}\\\\a=\frac{-2.89}{3.2}=0.903\ m/s^2$

The acceleration is negative as it is resisting the motion.

Now, the initial velocity is increased by a factor of 2.8. So,

New initial velocity = 2.8 × 1.7 = 4.76 m/s

Again using the same equation of motion and expressing the result in terms of 'S'. This gives,

$v^2=u^2+2aS\\\\S=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}$

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'S'. This gives,

$S=\frac{0-4.76^2}{2\times -0.903}\\\\S=\frac{-22.6576}{-1.806}=12.6\ m$

Therefore, the block would have slid 12.6 m if its initial velocity were increased by a factor of 2.8

Help with 7,8,9 please!!

Marysya12 [62]

# 7 the answer is 4) because you need opposites in order to attract

# 8 I'm going to guess it is 4) because electricity is needed in order a light bolt to work.(don't take my word for this one I'm not sure but, the other answer are correct)

# 9 the answer is 4) because the comb dose collect negative charges from the hair in order to make the hair have positive charge.

Hope this helped : )

Difference between discrete and continuous charge distribution?

Vlada [557]

Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists. It is such that all constituent particles have properties which vary randomly. They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.
