Answer:
W = F * s
Work done equals applied force * distance traveled
Apparent weight = M g (1 - sin θ) since some of applied force will lighten sled
μ = coefficient of kinetic friction
F cos θ = force applied to motion of sled
s = distance traveled
[μ M g (1 - sin θ)] cos θ * s = work done in moving sled
Note that F = μ M g if applied force is in the horizontal direction
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment.
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Answer:
F = MA
Explanation:
OP you didn't give us any examples, but force equals mass times acceleration is Newton's First Law.
Dropping a ball (mass) from the top of a building can show gravity, a form of acceleration.
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
If we are talking about the kinetic energy of the cylinder of oxygen:
The kinetic energy possessed by any object is given by

where
m is the mass of the object
v is its speed
In this case, we have one cylinder carried by a car and one standing on a platform: this means that the speed of the cylinder carried by the car will be different from zero (and so also its kinetic energy will be different from zer), while the speed of the cylinder standing on the platform will be zero (and so its kinetic energy also zero). Therefore, the kinetic energy of the cylinder carried by the car will be larger than that standing on a platform.
Instead, if we are talking about the kinetic energy due to the random motion of the molecules of oxygen inside the cylinder:
The kinetic energy of the molecules in a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas:

where k is called Boltzmann constant and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. Therefore, we see that K does not depend on whether the gas is in motion or not, but only on its temperature - therefore, in this case there is no difference between the kinetic energy of the cylinder carried by the car and that standing on the platform (assuming they are at the same temperature)
