Kinetic energy is energy in motion and potential energy is stored energy
Answer:
W = 34.64 ft-lbs
Explanation:
given,
Horizontal force = 4 lb
distance of push, d = 10 ft
angle of ramp, θ = 30°
Work done on the box = ?
We know,
W = F.d cos θ
W = 4 x 10 x cos 30°
W = 40 x 0.8660
W = 34.64 ft-lbs
Hence, work done on the box is equal to W = 34.64 ft-lbs
To find work, you use the equation: W = Force X Distance X Cos (0 degrees)
Following the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy cannot be destroyed nor created.
So you would do 75 N x 10m x Cos (0 degrees)= 750 J
False, the inertia does not keep us moving in a circle on a spinning ride at the fair.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Inertia is the resisting force of any object which resists in change in their state. If an object is moving the inertia will act in opposing direction to the force acting on the object stopping its motion.
Similarly, if an object resembles at rest, then the inertia will be acting against the force tending to move that stationary object. So, on a spinning ride at fair, when a person sits there, the inertia acting on the person will prevent the person to falling down from the fair and not in moving in a circle.
