For the answer to the question above, we have to use this formula
Pressure = P = force / area 
Then, just substitute the values of the formula
force = mg = 2(10) = 20 N 

area = A = 1 cm² = [1 x 10 ̄ ²]² m² 


=> P = 20 N / [1 x 10 ̄ ²]² = 200 x 10³ Pa 

= 200 kPa 
I hope my answer helped you. Have a nice day!

Phantasy [73]

Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface

Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards

Answer b): kinetic energy of the body

Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)

HEYYYY!! PLEASE HELP!!! Describe three machines that humans have designed and explain how the mechanical advantage is used.!!
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Three machines that humans have created are the lever, the wheel, and the axle, and also a pulley. even though there's actually more. A lever is A rigid bar that is free to move around a fixed point, such as a screwdriver. The wheel and axle, everyone should know what that is and what it does, it lifts heavy objects, moves people quickly, and moves parts of a complex machine. Pulleys are used to lift things, pulleys can be used singly or with many pulleys working together in order to transport people or things. They can also be used to provide power from one shaft to another. ... Construction pulleys are used in order to lift and place heavy materials.
