Muscles use force to move objects. When using a ramp to do work, would your muscles use more force or less force?

Less because the ramp is letting off force but i does depend on the way you are going on the ramp

If it's up then more if it's down then less

2 rocks of different masses roll down a hill at the same speed which rock has more kinetic energy small one or big one ???

Sophie [7]

Kinetic energy depends on the mass and the speed of a moving object.

If the speeds are equal, then the rick with more mass has more kinetic energy.

When an average force F is exerted over a certain distance on a shopping cart of mass m, its kinetic energy increases by 12mv2.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

A) $d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2$

B) $\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Explanation:

Given that

Force = F

Increase in Kinetic energy = $\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$\Delta KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

we know that

Work done by all the forces =change in the kinetic energy

Lets distance = d

We know work done by force F

W= F .d

F.d=ΔKE

$F.d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2$

If the force become twice

F' = 2 F

F'.d=ΔKE'

2 F .d = ΔKE' ( F.d =Δ KE)

2ΔKE = ΔKE'

$\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Therefore the final kinetic energy will become the twice if the force become twice.

What is the greatest distance an image can be located behind a convex spherical mirror?

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Maximum distance of image from mirror is equal to focal length of the mirror

Explanation:

As we know by the equation of mirror we have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}$

here we know for convex mirror

object position is always negative as it will be placed behind the mirror always

while the focal length of the convex mirror is always taken positive

So here we have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{-d_o} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{d_i} = \frac{1}{d_o} + \frac{1}{f}$

so here maximum value of image distance is equal to focal length of the mirror

A child uses a rubber band to launch a bottle cap at an angle of 37.0° above the horizontal. The cap travels a horizontal distan

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec

Explanation:

Let the initial speed = u

Angle at which rubber band is launched = 37°

Horizontal component of initial velocity $u_x=ucos\Theta =ucos37^{\circ}=0.7986u$

Time is given as t = 1.20 sec

Distance in horizontal direction = 1.30 m

We know that distance = speed × time

So time $t=\frac{distance}{speed}$

$1.20=\frac{1.3}{0.7986u}$

$u=1.356m/sec$

So initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec
