Answer:

C. Overcome Friction

Explanation:

When using any machine usually those with moving parts, you may notice heat forming near the areas where most movement occurs. As friction continues, more energy is used up and released as heat. For that reason, the efficiency of a machine will forever be less than 100%

dybincka [34]

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely proportional to
the square of the distance between them.  So reducing the distance
by 1/2 means increasing the gravitational force by 2² = 4 times. 
The 1 million newtons becomes 4 million newtons.

Note that this does NOT mean the satellite's altitude above the surface.
When you're calculating gravitational forces, it's the distance between
the centers of the objects.  So the question is a meaningful exercise
only if we use the distance between the satellite and the planet's center.

Two point charges lie on the x axis. A charge of + 2.20 pC is at the origin, and a charge of − 4.80 pC is at x=−11.0cm. What thi
k0ka [10]
As we know that electric field at any point caused due to a point charge given by, kQ/r^2

Where, k is dielectric constant of medium, Q is the point charge and r is the distance between the point charge and point where electric field is to be measured.

Let us assume a charge of q is placed at x=+20cm to make electric field at
x=+10cm zero.

Total electric field at x=+10cm can be shown by equation,

(k X 2.20 X 10^-12)/(10-0)^2  +  (k X -4.80 X 10^-12)/(10-(-11))^2  + (k X
q)/(10-20)^2  = 0

=> 2.20 X 10^-14 - 1.09 X 10^-14 + q X 10^-2 = 0

=> q = 1.09 X 10^-12 - 2.20 X 10^-12

=> q = -1.1 X 10^-12 Coulombs or -1.1 pC

The law of reflection states that if the angle of incidence is 76 degrees, the angle of reflection is ___ degrees.
Ann [662]
Answer is 76 degrees. 

The law of reflection states that when a line is reflected on a straight plane, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. In this case, the angle of incidence and the angle reflection are 76 degrees.

A large ant is standing on the middle of acircus tightrope that is stretched with tension Ts. The rope has mass per unit length
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

The ant , at some point of time will be standing on the crest of moving wave passing under its feet . At that position the downward acceleration of the ant will be equal to its weight . Hence it will feel weightlessness . So at that time

Acceleration = g

Acceleration at the top position = ω²A where ω is angular velocity and A is amplitude of vibration ( transverse ) of crest .

ω =2 π n where n is frequency of transverse vibration of particles. This angular frequency will be equal to angular  frequency of wave travelling on the rope .

frequency  of travelling  wave

n.= \frac{1}{\gamma}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }

ω =2 π  x \frac{1}{\gamma}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}

ω² = 4π² x T/γ²μ}

For weightlessness

ω² A = g

A= g x γ²μ / 4π² T
