. A 2.0-kg block is on a perfectly smooth ramp that makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. (a) What is the block’s accelerat

ion down the ramp and the force of the ramp on the block? (b) What force applied upward along and parallel to the ramp would allow the block to move with constant velocity?

Answer:

a) a = 4.9 m / s²,  N = 16.97 N   and b)   F = 9.8 N

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, we write a reference system with the x axis parallel to the plane, see attached, in this system the only force we have to break down is weight, let's use trigonometry

        sin 30 = Wx / W

        cos 30 = Wy / W

        Wx = W sin30

        Wy = W cos 30

Let's write the equations on each axis

X axis

        Wx = ma

Y Axis  

       N- Wy = 0

       N = Wy = mg cos 30

       N = 2.0 9.8 cos 30

       N = 16.97 N

We calculate the acceleration

       a = Wx / m

       a = mg sin 30 / m

       a = g sin 30

       a =9.8 sin 30

       a = 4.9 m / s²

b) For the block to move with constant speed, the acceleration must be zero, so the force applied must be equal to the weight component

      F -Wx = 0

      F = Wx

      F = m g sin 30

      F = 2.0 9.8 sin 30

      F = 9.8 N

Which of these objects are malleable? Check all that apply.
g100num [7]

Answer:

The tin fork and knife, the copper coin, and the steel fence pole.

Explanation:

Those are both what people would call soft metals so they are malleable to the extent of probably not needing heavy duty equipment. It depends on you description of malleable because the steel fence pole could be malleable with the correct equipment and not snap in half if bent slowly enough.

The definition of malleable: (of a metal or other material) able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking.

But the glass table, marble sculpture and antique ceramic vase are nowhere near malleable because if you tried bending them they wouldn't bend but would shatter and break into pieces.

State the law of conservation of momentum<br>​
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Law of conservation of momentum states that. For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

Explanation:

Hope it helps

Why heat capacity for polymer higher than metal?
jok3333 [9.3K]
Because polymers are covalently bonded material, and metals are metalicly bonded material. 

Covalent bonds do not let atoms exchange electrons like metalic bonds do.
