Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Inverse \ Relation}

Explanation:

According to Newton's Second Law Of Motion:

"The acceleration produced by the body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to mass."

So, <u>The Mathematical Form will be:</u>

Acceleration ∝ \sf \frac{1}{mass}

So, Acceleration and mass are inversely proportional. This means that Greater the mass, Smaller will be the acceleration produced and vice versa.

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Explanation: Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

telo118 [61]
It really depends on what the bulb is being used for, since efficiency means how much of the output is USEFUL.
If the bulb is being used for light in a dark room, then it produces (8.2% x 21W) = 1.72 joules per second of light energy.
If the bulb is being used to keep a hamster cage or a fish tank warm, then the 8.2% is the useful part, and the light is the other (91.8% x 21W) = 19.28 joules per second.

If the net work done on an object is zero, what can you determine about the object's kinetic energy?
jok3333 [9.3K]
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "The object's kinetic energy remains the same." If the net work done on an object is zero, you  determine about the object's kinetic energy is that The object's kinetic energy remains the same.

When the weight of the object increase block what is the force of friction applied? Explanation?
erik [133]

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.
