Answer:6 joules
Explanation:
Mass(m)=3kg
Velocity(v)=2m/s
Kinetic energy=0.5 x m x v^2
Kinetic energy=0.5 x 3 x 2^2
Kinetic energy=0.5 x 3 x 2 x 2
Kinetic energy=6
Answer:
The earth's gravitational force on the sun is equal to the sun's gravitational force on the earth
Explanation:
Newton's third law (law of action-reaction) states that:
"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"
In other words, when two objects exert a force on each other, then the magnitude of the two forces is the same (while the directions are opposite).
In this problem, we can call the Sun as "object A" and the Earth as "object B". According to Newton's third law, therefore, we can say that the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on the Sun is equal (in magnitude, and opposite in direction) to the gravitational force that the Sun exerts on the Earth.
Answer:
a. 
Explanation:
The equation of the forces along the directions parallel and perpendicular to the slope are:
- Along the parallel direction:
where
:
m = 6.0 kg is the mass of the box
g = 9.8 m/s^2 the acceleration of gravity
is the angle of the slope
is the coefficient of friction
R is the normal reaction
a is the acceleration
- Along the perpendicular direction:
From the 2nd equation, we get an expression for the reaction force:
And substituting into the 1st equation, we can find the acceleration:
Solving for a,
