<h2>It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.</h2>

Explanation:

Frequency of dribble = 1.77 Hz

That is

Number of dribbles in 1 second = 1.77

$\texttt{Time taken for 1 dribble = }\frac{1}{1.77}=0.565s$

Now we need to find how long does it take for you to complete 12 dribbles.

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x Time taken for 1 dribble

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x 0.565

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 6.78 seconds

It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.

A force does work on an object if a component of the force is

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

A force does work on an object if a component of the force is parallel to the displacement of the object.

Explanation:

Work, a measurement of energy is said to be done when a force applied to an object results in the movement of that object to a certain distance and direction. Force is the act of push or pulls occurs on an object as a result of the interaction between that object with another one and displacement is the distance and direction covered by that object as a result of the force applied on it.

The work done (W) by a constant force (F) is equal to the product of the force in the direction of displacement of the object and the distance (d) moved by the object i.e., W = F * d.

The angle between the displacement and the force is θ, then the work done, W = Fd cos θ ........ (1)

Positive work - Force acts in the same direction with respect to the displacement of the object. Here, θ is zero, so cos θ i.e., cos 0 is 1. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = Fd (i.e., work done by the force is positive).

Negative work - Force acts in the opposite direction with respect to the displacement of the object. Here, θ is 180°, so cos θ i.e., cos 180° is -1. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = -Fd (i.e., work done by the force is negative).

If a force is applied to an object and it does not move, then the work done is zero i.e., W = F * 0 = 0. Also, if the force and displacement are at right angle to each other, then θ is 90°. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = 0 since cos 90° is zero.

A block of mass 2 kg slides down ramp 1 with a height of 3 m. It then slides for 1 m on a surface with a kinetic coefficient of

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

PE = 58.8,J

Explanation:

The potential energy at the top of ramp1 can be found by the application of the formula PE = mgh

Where PE =potential energy

m = mass of block = 2kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.80m/s²

h = height of the top of the ramp from its bottom where the block is initially positioned = 3m
