Explanation:
The angle of the handle relative to the horizontal is 35°. The angle of the ramp to the horizontal is 7°. So the angle of the handle relative to the ramp is 28°.
cos 28° = 50 / F
F = 50 / cos 28°
F = 56.6 lbs
Kinetic energy is never negative, but potential energy can be.
Potential energy depends on height above some reference level,
and you can pick any level you want as the reference. So, if the
object is below the reference level you pick, then its potential
energy relative to your reference level is negative.
What that means is: You have to lift it / do work on it / give it more
energy than it has now ... in order to move it to the reference level.
(That's exactly the situation with electrons bound to an atom. Their
energy is considered negative, because we have to do work and
give them more energy to rip them away from the atom.)
_____________________________________
Regarding the other choices:
-- Kinetic energy is scalar ... Yes. So is potential energy.
-- Kinetic energy increases with height ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
-- Kinetic energy depends on position ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
Answer:
when the ground is very hot and the air is cool.
Explanation:
The hot earth warms a layer of air right above the ground. Light is refracted as it passes through the cool air and onto the hot air sheet (bent). A coating of very warm air near the earth bends the light from the sky almost into a U-shaped bend.

Answer:
beam of light converges to a point A. A lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam 12 cm from P.
To find the point at which the beam converge if the lens is (a) a convex lens of focal length 20 cm, (b) a concave lens of focal length 16 cm
Solution:
As per the given criteria,
the the object is virtual and the image is real (as the lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam)
(a) lens is a convex lens with
focal length, f=20cm
object distance, u=12cm
applying the lens formula, we get
f

=
v

−
u

⟹

⟹

=

3+5
⟹v=7.5cm
Hence the image formed is real, at 7.5cm from the lens on its right side.
(b) lens is a concave lens with
focal length, f=−16cm
object distance, 12cm
applying the lens formula, we get
f
1
=
v

−
u

⟹
v

⟹v=48m
Hence the image formed is real, at 48 cm from the lens on the right side.
