Why does an object roll faster down a steeper hill than a not so steep hill.

Physics

Natasha2012 [34]3 years ago
3 0
 The answer is : <span>Gravity draws an object towards its strongest point. The main things holding you back are air resistance and friction. As a hill gets steeper, you are more in line with the center of gravity, so it overcomes friction and you move faster. Eventually when you are moving vertically there is no friction other than air resistance itself. At this time you will accelerate at 32 feet per second every second until you either hit something or reach terminal velocity which is around 120 mph. Air resistance (on the Earth at least) will not allow you to travel any faster. Hope this Helped! Good Luck! :)</span>

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If f '(c) = 0, then f has a local maximum or minimum at c.
ankoles [38]

It is False that, If f '(c) = 0, then f has a local maximum or minimum at c.

Local maximum and minimum points are very distinctive on the graph of a function and are thus, helpful in grasping the shape of the graph. Either a local minimum or a local maximum can be considered a local extremum.

A counterexample can be used for:

f(x) = x³

f'(x) = 2 × x²

and,

f'(0) = 2×0² = 0

However, the assertion is false because x = 0 is actually an inflection point rather than a maximum or minimum in f(x) = x³.

When a wire with a current is placed in a magnetic field, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy
babymother [125]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

When a wire with a current is placed in a magnetic field, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. The transformation happens when the magnetic field produced by the current causes the wire to move.

Which of these would best describe the outcome of increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules in the above picture? A) The te
VikaD [51]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Relation between kinetic energy and temperature is as follows.

                K.E \propto \frac{3}{2}kT

As, kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature. So, when there will be increase in temperature then there will also occur increase in kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.

And, when gas particles move slowly then it means kinetic energy of gas particles is very low. It also implies that temperature is low.

Thus, we can conclude that temperature will increase best describes the outcome of increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules in the above picture.
