Answer:

The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

Explanation:

Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. Mass is denoted using m or M. ... Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).

A Block slides down an incline that makes an angle of 30? with the horizontal direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction bet

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Acceleration = 2.35 m/ $s^{2}$

Speed = 8.67 m/s

Explanation:

The coefficient of friction , u =0.3

The angle of incline = 30°

The two forces acting on block are weight and friction.

weight along the incline = mg cos60° = $\frac{mg}{2}$ = 0.5 mg

Friction along incline = umg cos30° = mg $0.3\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Friction along incline = 0.26 mg

Net force acting on the weight = (0.5 - 0.26) mg = 0.24 mg

Acceleration = $\frac{net force}{mass}$ = 0.24 g = 2.35 m/ $s^{2}$

The height of incline = 8 m

Length of the inclined edge = 16 m

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as$

$v^{2}= 2\times 0.24 \times 9.8\times 16$

v= 8.67 m/s

All ball is thrown up with a vertical velocity of 54 m/s and a horizontal velocity of 39 m/s. Calculate how many seconds it will

VikaD [51]

5.5 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height can be calculated using

$v_y = v_{0y} - gt \Rightarrow t = \dfrac{v_{0y}}{g}$

since $v_y = 0$ at the top of its trajectory. Plugging in the numbers,

$t = \dfrac{(54\:\text{m/s})}{(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)} = 5.5\:\text{s}$
