Answer:
The increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases
Explanation:
It is easier to climb a mountain in a zigzag way rather than climbing on a straight line but since the distance is the same ( vertical height ) , mass and gravity is the same. Hence the increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases.
gravitational potential energy = mgh ( same in both cases )
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = distance ( vertical height )
Answer:
Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
Explanation:
- Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
- As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
- So, if it is gradually slowing, there must be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
- This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
- As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
- This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.
Answer:

Explanation:
The relationship between the refractive index and the critical angle is given as follows:

where,
η = refractive index = 1.67
θc = critical angle =?
Therefore,
