Because the box keeps going straight at the same speed, while the seat under it speeds up, slows down, or changes direction.

The equation for gear ratio
Ymorist [56]
In a gear train with two gears, the gear ratio is defined as follows
R= \frac{\omega _A}{\omega _B} 

where \omega _A is the angular velocity of the input gear while \omega _B is the angular velocity of the output gear. 

This can be rewritten as a function of the number of teeth of the gears. In fact, the angular velocity of a gear is inversely proportional to the radius r of the gear:
\omega = \frac{v}{r}
But the radius is proportional to the number of teeth N of the gear. Therefore we can rewrite the gear ratio also as
R= \frac{\omega _A}{\omega _B} = \frac{r_B}{r_A} = \frac{N_B}{N_A}

Two protons are released from rest when they are 0.750 {\rm nm} apart.
Alex787 [66]

Explanation:

Given:

m = 1.673 × 10^-27 kg

Q = q = 1.602 × 10^-19 C

r = 0.75 nm

= 0.75 × 10^-9 m

A.

Energy, U = (kQq)/r

Ut = 1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 mv^2

1.673 × 10^-27 × v^2 = (8.99 × 10^9 × (1.602 × 10^-19)^2)/0.75 × 10^-9

v = 1.356 × 10^4 m/s

B.

F = (kQq)/r^2

F = m × a

1.673 × 10^-27 × a = ((8.99 × 10^9 × (1.602 × 10-19)^2)/(0.075 × 10^-9)^2

a = 2.45 × 10^17 m/s^2.

An iron block of mass 10 kg rests on a wooden plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. It is found
Kaylis [27]

I assume the 100 N force is a pulling force directed up the incline.

The net forces on the block acting parallel and perpendicular to the incline are

∑ F[para] = 100 N - F[friction] = 0

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg cos(30°) = 0

The friction in this case is the maximum static friction - the block is held at rest by static friction, and a minimum 100 N force is required to get the block to start sliding up the incline.

Then

F[friction] = 100 N

F[normal] = mg cos(30°) = (10 kg) (9.8 m/s²) cos(30°) ≈ 84.9 N

If µ is the coefficient of static friction, then

F[friction] = µ F[normal]

⇒   µ = (100 N) / (84.9 N) ≈ 1.2

Doug is doing work. Without knowing exactly what he is doing, which can be said about the work he is doing?
WARRIOR [948]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>Energy is transferred.</em>

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • Work is the force applied over a given distance, in other words work is the product of force and distance. That is; Work = force × distance.
  • Work is measured in Joules.
  • Energy on the other hand, is the ability to do work.
  • According to the principle of work-energy a change in the kinetic energy is equivalent to the net work don e by the object. Therefore, when work is being done energy is being transferred from one point to another.
