Answer: Volume

Explanation: Volume is the amount of space matter takes up. All matter takes up a certain amount of space. Volume is used in mathematics and science all the time to describe the size of a particular object.

An example of volume would be finding the volume of a cube with a length of 30 feet.

Since the length, width, and height of a cube are all equal, we can find the volume of a cube by multiplying the side × side × side or S³.

(30 ft)³

Volume = 27,000 ft³.

Which vector should be negative?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

 The velocity of a falling object

Explanation:

  The positive X axis is towards right and positive Y axis is towards up, so North direction is positive

  A vector with less than 1 magnitude is not negative, because its magnitude may be in between 0 and 1 which is positive vector.

  Any vector whose magnitude is greater than 1 is never be a negative vector.

  The velocity of a falling object is towards bottom, that is towards negative Y axis. So that vector is negative.

A 100g block lies on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 15 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio
Fed [463]

Answer:

Mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 34.16 g

Explanation:

The vertical forces (with respect to the inclined plane) acting on the 100 g block include the component of the weight of the block in the direction vertical to the inclined plane and the normal reaction of the plane on the block.

And sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces.

N = mg cos θ

m = 100 g = 0.10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

θ = 15°

N = (0.1×9.8×cos 15°) = 0.946582 N

The horizontal forces (With respect to the inclined plane) include the frictional force (acting upwards for the inclined plane, opposite to the intended direction of motion), the Tension in the rope (acting downwards, away from the 100 g block) and the horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block, F, (also acting downards).

For the body to slide down the inclined plane at constant speed, the downward sloping forces must balance the frictional force, that is, there will be no acceleration.

Frictional force = Tension + F

Frictional force = μN

where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.60

N = normal reaction = 0.9466 N

Frictional force = Fr = (0.60 × 0.9466) = 0.56796 N = 0.568 N

The horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block (also acting downards) = mg sin θ

F = (0.10 × 9.8 × sin 15°) = 0.253624 N

Tension in the rope = T = ?

Fr = F + T

T = Fr - F = 0.568 - 0.253624 = 0.314376 N = 0.3144 N

But the balance on the rope now has the total weight on the container (weight of container + weight on the container) to be equal to 2T.

2T = mg

2 × 0.3144 = 9.8m

m = 0.06416 kg = 64.16 g.

Mass of the container = 30 g

So, mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 64.16 - 30 = 34.16 g

Hope this Helps!!!

Anuta_ua [19.1K]
This is a good time to review Newton's 3rd law of motion:
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Gravitational force always acts in pairs.
Whatever force the Earth attracts something with,
the thing attracts the Earth with exactly the same force.

If Earth attracts a person with a gravitational force of <span><span>7.0 × 10² </span>newtons,
the person attracts Earth with a gravitational force of 7.0 × 10² newtons.

Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you !
