A student wants to approximate the amount of work that the force due to gravity does on the student as the student walks up a se

t of stairs. Which of the following measurements must the student collect in order to approximate the amount of work done by Earth on the student?
a. The mass of the student.
b. The angle between the inclined portion of the stairs and the horizontal.
c. The total inclined length of the stairs.
d. The final vertical height above the initial vertical position.

Answer:

Options A and D

Explanation:

In this question the student needs to collect these measurements in order to approximate the work done

A. The mass of the student

D. The final vertical height above the initial vertical position.

Workdone = mgh

m = mass

g = gravity = 9.8m/s²

h = vertical height between the initial and the final positions.

The vertical height has to be known as gravity only acts straight down.

You can carry a 50 N weight up a flight of stairs that is 3 m high in 10 s. Then you carry 40 N up two flights of stairs in 20 s

You can do 50 and 10 and carry the 30 and it would be in the same power so you’ll have the same energy

If an object is not moving are the forces acting on it balanced? Yes or no?why?
xxMikexx [17]

This is another time to look at Newton's 2nd law of motion:

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the object is not moving, then its acceleration is certainly zero, and Newton's law looks like this:

Net Force = (mass) x (zero)

or  Net Force = (zero) .

"Net Force = zero" means that if there ARE any forces acting on the object, then they add up to zero, and we call them "balanced" forces.

So the answer is '<em>yes</em>', and that's why.

The charge on any negatively charged oil droplet is always a whole-number multiple of the fundamental charge of a single electro
shusha [124]

Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-18} C  

Explanation:

The fundamental charge of a single electron is 1.6\times 10^{-19} C.

If there are 10 excess electrons, the net charge that would be measured should be 10 times the fundamental charge of a single electron:

Q=nq_e\\Q= 10\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C\\Q= 1.6 \times 10^{-18} C

If two particles have equal kinetic energies, are their momenta necessarily equal? explain.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

No the given statement is not necessarily true.

Explanation:

We know that the kinetic energy of a particle of mass 'm' moving with velocity 'v' is given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Similarly the momentum is given by m\times v

For 2 particles with masses m_{1},m_{2}and moving with velocities v_{1},v_{2} respectively the respective kinetic energies is given by

K.E_{1}=\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}

K.E_{2}=\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}

Similarly For 2 particles with masses m_{1},m_{2}and moving with velocities v_{1},v_{2} respectively the respective momenta are given by

p_{1}=m_{1}\times v_{1}

p_{2}=m_{2}\times v_{2}

Now since it is given that the two kinetic energies are equal thus we have

\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}\\\\(m_{1}v_{1})\times v_{1}=(m_{2}v_{2})\times v_{2}\\\\p_{1}\times v_{1}=p_{2}\times v_{2}\\\\\therefore \frac{p_{1}}{p_{2}}=\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}............(i)

Thus we infer that the moumenta are not equal since the ratio on right of 'i' is not 1 , and can be 1 only if the velocities of the 2 particles are equal which becomes a special case and not a general case.
