Answer:

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and displacement. Work is positive if force and displacement moves in the same direction. Work is negative if force and displacement moves in opposite direction. Take for example, a load is to move from point A to point B in the forward direction. if you apply force on the load from point A to B work done on the load is positive. If it happens that the force you apply is to the opposite direction, the work done will be negative.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2/R*sqrt (g*s*sin(θ)) = w

Explanation:

Assume:

- The cylinder with mass m

- The radius of cylinder R

- Distance traveled down the slope is s

- The angular speed at bottom of slope w

- The slope of the plane θ

- Frictionless surface.

Solution:

- Using energy principle at top and bottom of the slope. The exchange of gravitational potential energy at height h, and kinetic energy at the bottom of slope.

ΔPE = ΔKE

- The change in gravitational potential energy is given as m*g*h.

- The kinetic energy of the cylinder at the bottom is given as rotational motion: 0.5*I*w^2

- Where I is the moment of inertia of the cylinder I = 0.5*m*R^2

We have:

m*g*s*sin(θ) = 0.25*m*R^2*w^2

2/R*sqrt (g*s*sin(θ)) = w

- The angular velocity depends on plane geometry θ , distance travelled down slope s, Radius of the cylinder R , and gravitational acceleration g

The answer is B

Explanation:

Because when the both sides aren't balanced one side has to cause motion. (fall down)

Answer:

$\frac{0.065}{r}$

Explanation:

The maximum velocity of an object moving in a curve beyond which it will slide off the curve is given by the relationship in equation (1);

$v=\sqrt{\mu gr}....................(1)$

where $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction between the object and the surface of the curve, g is acceleration due to gravity and r is the radius of the curve.
