Similarities would be
They are both made of rock.
They are close in size.
They both have thick atmospheres.
They both have similar densities.
The strength of the gravity on their surfaces is similar.

Differences would be Venus and Earth are planets in our solar system, with Venus being the second closest planet and the Earth being the third closest to the sun. The mass of the earth is about 1.23 times the mass of Venus.

Being closer to the sun, Venus is a lot hotter than the Earth. While the average temperature on the earth is about 14 °C, that on Venus is over 460 °C. . Hope that helps

If you wanted to produce more power,what could you do to maximize power

PSYCHO15rus [73]

In physics, power is defined as energy per unit time. You will also hear it described as work per unit time. The standard unit of measure for power is the watt, where a watt is defined as joules (energy) per second (time). This is expressed as a fraction as J/s. If you wanted to increase the power in any operation, you can either increase the energy (more joules) or reduce the time (fewer seconds).

A 50 Kg box sits at rest on a 30 degree ramp where the coef of static friction is 0.5773. If your push was directed at an angle

emmasim [6.3K]

Given data:

m= 50 Kg,

W= m×g = 50 × 9.81 = 490.5 N

ramp angle (α) = 30 degrees,

coefficient of friction (μs) = 0.5773,

Push at an angle (Θ) = 40 degrees,

Determine: Push to get box move up (P)=?

From the figure,

Resolving the forces along the plane

W sinα + μs.R = P cos Θ --------------------- (i)

Resolving the forces perpendicular to the inclined plane

W cosα = R+Psin Θ => R= W cosα - Psin Θ -------------- (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii) and keeping μs = tan Φ, Φ = Θ 

Pmin = W sin( α +Θ )

= W[ sin α.Cos Θ + cos α.sin Θ]

= 490.5 [ (sin 30.cos40) + (cos30.sin 40)]

= 460.9 N

Minimum push required to move the box up the ramp is 460.9 N

An artificial satellite in a low orbit circles the earth every 98 minutes. what is its angular speed in rad/s?

postnew [5]

To finish one orbit it will take 98 x 60 seconds. So; (2 x pi)/(98 x 60) = 1.07 x 10^-3 rad/sec.

Why might you want to use a single fixed pulley?

hjlf

A single fixed pulley can be used to raise or lower lightweight objects.

Option b

Explanation:

A pulley is a simple machine tool which is used to make lifting or lowering tasks easy. A single fixed pulley is a system involving only one pulley fixed on a constant rigid support with a rope wrapped around the wheel. Such a system can be used only to change the direction of applied force in raising or lowering small, lightweight objects which need minimal work force.

A single fixed pulley system helps only in redirecting the applied force direction by using a rope and wheel assembly. The work done in such a case remains the same and hence it is not preferred to use it in lifting heavy objects. Neither is the required force reduced in case of a single fixed pulley system. A movable pulley helps in achieving (A) and (C).
