Walking down a pebble beach becomes less painful as you enter the sea. Explain why.

Physics
1 answer:
SVEN [57.7K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:Since pressure = force/area, the same force on a smaller area means more pressure. When you are walking on sand, the force being applied by your body is spread out over the entire surface of your foot. ... So, more pressure applied on a given area of your foot causes more pain.

For #5 It's helpful to draw a free body diagram so you know which way the forces are acting on the block.

the weight mg is acting downwards, and you need to find the vertical and horizontal components of mg using sin and cosine. so do 15x9.8xsin40 which is the force. Assuming no friction, this is the only force acting on the block, as the forces on the vertical plane cancel out i.e the normal force and weight of the block.

after, just do F=ma And since you know F and m, solve for a.

When a object is electrically charged, ____ have been added or removed.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B, electrons.

Explanation:

An electrical charge is created when electrons are transferred to or removed from an object. Because electrons have a negative charge, when they are added to an object, it becomes negatively charged. When electrons are removed from an object, it becomes positively charged.

.A 0.2-kg aluminum plate, initially at 20°C, slides down a 15-m-long surface, inclined at a 30 angle to the horizontal. The forc
Ainat [17]

To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Work according to the Force and distance, as well as the concepts related to energy lost-or gained-by heat. Mathematically the energy corresponding to heat is given as:

Q = mC_p(\Delta T)

Where,

m = mass

C_p= Specific heat

\Delta T = Change in Temperature

At the same time the Work made by the Force and the distance is given as:

W = F*d \rightarrow W=mg*d

As the force is applied at an angle of 30 degrees, the efficient component would be given by the vertical then the work / energy would be determined as:

W = mg*dsin(30)

W = (15m)(0.2kg)(9.81)(sin30)

W = 13.24J

Now this energy is used to heat the aluminum. We can find the change at the temperature as follow:

Q = mC_p(\Delta T)

13.24 = (0.2)(900)(\Delta T)

\Delta T = 0.0736 \°C

Therefore the correct answer is B.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The strength of gravity decreases.

An example of that would be if you were in space; you float around because there's no gravity.
