Answer:

The amount of work the factory worker must to stop the rolling ramp is 294 joules

Explanation:

The object rolling down the frictionless ramp has the following parameters;

The mass of the object = 10 kg

The height from which the object is rolled = 3 meters

The work done by the factory worker to stop the rolling ramp = The initial potential energy, P.E., of the ramp

Where;

The potential energy P.E. = m × g × h

m = The mass of the ramp = 10 kg

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height from which the object rolls down = 3 m

Therefore, we have;

P.E. = 10 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 3 m = 294 Joules

The work done by the factory worker to stop the rolling ramp = P.E. = 294 joules

Which best describes a difference between laser light and regular light?
Inga [223]
The basic difference is that the ordinary sources are incoherent that means that the discrete frequencies merge up to give an intermediate between the maximum and minimum frequencies. While the laser is coherent containing the single frequency with maximum amplitude. thus travelling far.

MissTica

Explanation:

Tables and graphs are visual representations. They are used to organise information to show patterns and relationships. A graph shows this information by representing it as a shape. Researchers and scientists often use tables and graphs to report findings from their research.

A book sitting on a table is moved horizontally. Describe the
Akimi4 [234]

Frictional force and Applied force has same “magnitude” and “opposite” direction.  

Option: B  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

When a book is moved horizontally by applying “force” on the book, the frictional force is opposed to the book by the table. Here, this “frictional force” is opposing the book has the same force what we applied on the book but this frictional force and the applied force are opposite in direction. Always the “frictional force” is opposite to the “applied force” which stops the object to move. For example, if a force applied leftward to the object the frictional force is acted on the right side of the object.

When two objects are in contact they experience a "frictional force". This "frictional force" acts opposite to the force applied on to move the object.

Formula for "frictional force" is \mu\times N

Where, \mu is coefficient of friction and N is normal force.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

(B) the sum total of all matter and energy

Explanation:

Universe comprises of all the matter and energy that exists in space. It contains billions of stars, planets and interstellar matter that is clouds of dust and gas. There is large amount of the empty space in between.

Universe contains stars as many as grains of sand on all beaches on the Earth. These stars are grouped into galaxies. Milky Way is one of the galaxies.  Galaxies can be grouped into clusters and super-clusters.
