Answer:
The block didn't slide due to balancing of gravitational force with friction force
Explanation:
When the block was given a flick the force provided an acceleration to it and it moved up the inclined plane. when the block reached top it was expected that it would slide back but it didn't this happened because of the frictional force acting on the bottom the block which was balancing the gravitational force component along the plane and this prevented sliding back of the block.
static friction was balancing mg*sin(theta)
fs = mg*sin(theta)
The average acceleration from 9 to 18 seconds is 6 meters per second.
The graph shows that from 9 to 18 seconds the speed of the ostrich stays at a steady 6 meters per second.
<span>The unknown substance is silver.
I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so
273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL
Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following:
10.07 Actinium
10.22 Molybdenum
10.5 Silver
11.35 Lead
And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>
Known variables
d=4.6m
initial velocity=0m/s
downward acceleration=-9.8m/s2
d=1/2gt2
4.6=1/2 -9.8 t2
t=0.93s
