A girl picks up a bag of apples that are at rest on the floor. How dose the force the girl applies compare to the force of gravi

AysviL [449]3 years ago

Answer:

When the bag of apples are on the floor, the force of gravity is equal to the force applied in the upward direction.

But when the girl picks up the bag of apples, she applies a force on the bag of apples in the upward direction greater than that of the gravitational force.

Explanation:

Gravitational force for an object is always constant at a specific point. When an object is in the state of rest, there is an equal force opposite to the direction of Gravitational Force.

Now, to lift an object upwards, an external force must be applied that is greater than the force of gravitation.

So, when the girl picks up the bag of apples,

Gravitational Force < Force applied by the girl to lift the bag.

A moderate force will break an egg. However, an egg droppedon the road usually breaks while one dropped on the grass usuallydoes
Fed [463]

Answer:

C. the time interval for stopping is greater.

Explanation:

As the egg falls onto the grass, it takes a a greater amount of time for it to stop, and thus the force that is being applied to it is in increments; there is never enough force applied on the egg for it to break. That's why the egg doesn't break when it lands on the grass.

In contrast, when the egg is dropped on the road, <em>all of the force that is being applied by the road on the egg is in the tiny interval when the egg touches the road</em>, That force is large enough to break the egg because it is being applied in a tiny amount of time. That's why the egg dropped on the road breaks.

<em>So here is the rule of thumb: if you don't want to break your things but still want to drop them, drop them such that it takes  some for them to stop—because force will applied to them gradually. </em>

Two carts, one twice as heavy as the other, are at rest on a horizontal track. A person pushes each cart for 8 s. Ignoring frict
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct option is: B that is 1/2 K

Explanation:

Given:

Two carts of different masses, same force were applied for same duration of time.

Mass of the lighter cart = m

Mass of the heavier cart = 2m

We have to find the relationship between their kinetic energy:

Let the KE of cart having mass m be "K".

and KE of cart having mass m be "K1".

As it is given regarding Force and time so we have to bring in picture the concept of momentum Δp and find a relation with KE.

Numerical analysis.

⇒ KE =  \frac{mv^2}{2}

⇒ KE =  \frac{mv^2}{2}\times \frac{m}{m}

⇒ KE =  \frac{m^2v^2}{2}\times \frac{1}{m}

⇒ KE =  \frac{(mv)^2}{2}\times \frac{1}{m}

⇒ KE =  \frac{(\triangle p)^2}{2}\times \frac{1}{m}

⇒ KE =  \frac{(\triangle p)^2}{2m}=\frac{(F\times t)^2}{2m}

Now,

Kinetic energies and their ratios in terms of momentum or impulse.

KE (K) of mass m.

⇒ K=\frac{(F\times t)^2}{2m}           ...equation (i)

KE (K1) of mass 2m.

⇒ K_1=\frac{(F\times t)^2}{2\times 2m}

⇒ K_1=\frac{(F\times t)^2}{4m}         ...equation (ii)

Lets divide K1 and K to find the relationship between the two carts's KE.

⇒ \frac{K_1}{K} =\frac{(F\times t)^2}{4m} \times \frac{2m}{(F\times t)^2}

⇒ \frac{K_1}{K} =\frac{2m}{4m}

⇒ \frac{K_1}{K} =\frac{2}{4}

⇒ \frac{K_1}{K} =\frac{1}{2}

⇒ K_1=\frac{K}{2}

⇒ K_1=\frac{1}{2}K

The kinetic energy of the heavy cart after the push compared to the kinetic energy of the light cart is 1/2 K.
