A wooden block is sitting on an inclined plane near the bottom. The student gave the block a flick and it moved up the inclined

plane then stopped. It is expected that the block to start sliding back down the inclined plane but it did not. It just sat there near the top. What is your explanation why the block stopped and did not begin sliding again?

Answer:

The block didn't slide due to balancing of gravitational force with friction force

Explanation:

When the block was given a flick the force provided an acceleration to it and it moved up the inclined plane. when the block reached top it was expected that it would slide back but it didn't this happened because of the frictional force acting on the bottom the block which was balancing the gravitational force component along the plane and this prevented sliding back of the block.

static friction  was balancing mg*sin(theta)

fs = mg*sin(theta)

At very high pressures, gases become ____________ and will eventually _______________.
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

B) more dense; change to a liquid or solid

Explanation:

When the pressure of a gas is increased, the average distance between the molecules decreases. In fact, if we assume that the temperature of the gas is kept constant, then we have

pV=const.

which means that the product between pressure and volume is constant: so, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and therefore the density of the gas increases (because density is inversely proportional to the volume, d=\frac{m}{V})

Moreover, at very high pressure, the gas can turns into a liquid and eventually into a solid: in fact, as the average distance between the molecules decreases more and more, at some point they becomes so close to each other that the intermolecular forces start to be relevant, turning the gas into a liquid.

The radius of a small ball is around 3.79747 cm. The radius of a basketball is about 3.16 times larger. What is the ratio of the
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Explanation:

The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.

A/A = 3.16² = 9.99

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.

V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6

A car of mass 800kg travels a distance of 40m at constant speed in a duration of 2.0s. The car exerts a forward force of 15kN.
Alex17521 [72]

W = F × s

W = 15kN × 40 m

W = 15.000 N × 40 m

W = 600.000 J

P = W/t

P = 600.000 J/2 s

P = 300.000 Watt

P = 300kWatt
