b. It is equal to u, n.
c. It is greater than the component of the gravitational force acting down the ramp.

Answer:

d. It is equal to the component of the gravitational force acting down the ramp.

Explanation:

The stationary crate is inclined at an angle with the horizontal. The Recall, Frictional Force is any Force that opposes motion.

Because the Force of Friction that is opposing the motion of the crate along the inclination side.

Therefore this Frictional force is balanced or equal to the force that is driving the inclined force.

Hence Frictional Force is equal to the Gravitational Force that is acting in the ramp, that is why the crate is stationery.

Planets A and B have the same mass, but planet A is half the size of planet B.
pychu [463]

Answer:

c. You would weigh less on planet A because the distance between

you and the planet's center of gravity would be smaller.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes your weight on each planet is that you would weigh less on planet A because the distance between you and the planet's center of gravity would be smaller.

  • This is based on Newton's law of universal gravitation which states that "the force of gravity between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".

Since weight is dependent on the force of gravity and mass, the planet with more gravitational pull will have masses on them weighing more.

  • Since the distance between the person and the center of the planet is smaller, therefore, the weight will be lesser.

Liam throws a water balloon horizontally at 8.2 m/s out of a window 18 m from the ground.
Alecsey [184]

Time taken by the water balloon to reach the bottom will be given as

h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

here we know that

h = 18 m

g = 9.8 m/s^2

now by the above formula

18 = \frac{1}{2}*9.8* t^2

18 = 4.9 t^2

t = 1.92 s

now in the same time interval we can say the distance moved by it will be

d = v_x * t

d = 8.2 * 1.92 = 15.7 m

so it will fall at a distance 15.7 m from its initial position

these are the types of attractions found between molecules. their strength determines the state of the substance at room tempera
Elina [12.6K]
<h2>Answer</h2>

The physical state of the elements depends upon the <u>attraction forces </u>and their <u>kinetic energy</u>.

<h2>Explanation</h2>

The elements or substances are fixed with each other with the help of different chemical forces including ionic bonding, covalent bonding, H- bonding etc. The strength of these forces is also one of the factors that affect their physical natures. For example, covalent or ionic bonds are the strongest bonds than all other bonds and metals that contain these forces are mostly in solid form. The kinetic motion of electrons in the element also affects the physical state of the element and potential of bonding.

Imagine that a bowling ball needs to be lifted 1.5 meters, and its gravitational potential energy is 90 joules. How much does th
Vikki [24]

Answer: 6.12 kg

Explanation:

Since Mass of ball = ? (let the unknown value be Z)

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8m/s^2

Height, h = 1.5 metres

Gravitational potential energy GPE = 90J

Gravitational potential energy depends on the weight of the ball, the action of gravity and height.

Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h

90J = Z x 9.8m/s^2 x 1.5m

90 = Z x 14.7

Z = 90/14.7

Z = 6.12 kg

Thus, the bowling ball weigh 6.12 kilograms
