Answer:

How Heavy? More than 2,300,000 limestone and granite blocks were pushed, pulled, and dragged into place on the Great Pyramid. The average weight of a block is about 2.3 metric tons (2.5 tons).

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1350N

Explanation:

2.75 ms = 2.75*10^{-3}s

The force exerted on the hand would be the momentum divided by the duration of contact.

As the hand is coming to rest, final velocity would be 0

F = \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t} = \frac{m(0 - v)}{\Delta t} = \frac{1.65*(2.25 - 0)}{2.75 * 10^{-3}} = -1350 N

The magnitude of the force would be 1350N

If the height of the ramp is increased then the marble's speed will be greater because gravity will have less resistance when pu
Alik [6]
If you increase the steepness of the ramp, then you will increase the acceleration of a ball which rolls down the ramp. This can be seen in two different ways: 

<span>1) Components of forces. Forces are vectors and have a direction and a magnitude. The force of gravity points straight down, but a ball rolling down a ramp doesn't go straight down, it follows the ramp. Therefore, only the component of the gravitational force which points along the direction of the ball's motion can accelerate the ball. The other component pushes the ball into the ramp, and the ramp pushes back, so there is no acceleration of the ball into the ramp. If the ramp is horizontal, then the ball does not accelerate, as gravity pushes the ball into the ramp and not along the surface of the ramp. If the ramp is vertical, the ball just drops with acceleration due to gravity. These arguments are changed a bit by the fact that the ball is rolling and not sliding, but that only affects the magnitude of the acceleration but not the fact that it increases with ramp steepness. </span>

<span>2) Work and energy. The change in potential energy of the ball is its mass times the change in height (only the vertical component counts -- horizontal displacements do not change gravitational potential energy) times the local gravitational acceleration g. This loss of gravitational potential energy shows up as an increase in kinetic energy. If the ball falls a farther distance vertically, it will have a greater kinetic energy and be going faster. Again, the kinetic energy is shared between the motion of the ball going somewhere, and the rotation of the ball, and so the details of the acceleration depend on the ball (is it hollow or solid?), but the dependence on the steepness of the ramp is the same. </span>

Why is it important to listen to your body when playing sports
bonufazy [111]

Sometimes, you can play sport for a longer time than you should. You should always stop and take a little break and always drink water. Also, if something starts to hurt, stop, let someone responsible know and take a break.

Gravitational energy can be negative?
AlladinOne [14]

answer:

yes

explanation:

At a separation of the surface of Earth (r=6400km) gravity wants pull the test mass closer and closer. ... So the work done by gravity is NEGATIVE. The gravitational potential energy is negative because us trying to do the opposite of what gravity wants needs positive energy.
