A lightweight object and a very heavy object are sliding with equal speeds along a level frictionless surface. They both slide u

p the same frictionless hill with no air resistance. Which object rises to a greater height?
Physics

Answer:

No object rises a greater height. They both rise the same height.

Explanation:

Since the kinetic energy = work done by gravity

1/2mv² = mgh

h = v²/2g where h is the height and v the speed.

Since the speed is the same for both objects, the height moved is the same since the expression for the height moved is independent of their masses but dependent on their speeds.

So, no object rises a greater height. They both rise the same height.

The hierarchy of needs is the spectrum of needs ranging from basic ________ needs to ________ needs to self-actualization.
Zanzabum
The hierarchy of need was developed by Maslow. The pyramid is a motivational theory in psychology that argues that people is seeking to meet successively higher needs. The base of the pyramid is for the physiological needs to safety, belongingness, esteem, and finaly self-actualization.

Explanation:

(a) Hooke's law:

F = kx

7.50 N = k (0.0300 m)

k = 250 N/m

(b) Angular frequency:

ω = √(k/m)

ω = √((250 N/m) / (0.500 kg))

ω = 22.4 rad/s

Frequency:

f = ω / (2π)

f = 3.56 cycles/s

Period:

T = 1/f

T = 0.281 s

(c) EE = ½ kx²

EE = ½ (250 N/m) (0.0500 m)²

EE = 0.313 J

(d) A = 0.0500 m

(e) vmax = Aω

vmax = (0.0500 m) (22.4 rad/s)

vmax = 1.12 m/s

amax = Aω²

amax = (0.0500 m) (22.4 rad/s)²

amax = 25.0 m/s²

(f) x = A cos(ωt)

x = (0.0500 m) cos(22.4 rad/s × 0.500 s)

x = 0.00919 m

(g) v = dx/dt = -Aω sin(ωt)

v = -(0.0500 m) (22.4 rad/s) sin(22.4 rad/s × 0.500 s)

v = -1.10 m/s

a = dv/dt = -Aω² cos(ωt)

a = -(0.0500 m) (22.4 rad/s)² cos(22.4 rad/s × 0.500 s)

a = -4.59 m/s²

What does the slope of the curve on a distance vs time graph represent?
Lilit [14]

Slope of a curve Y plotted against X is mathematically given as

slope = \frac{dy}{dx}

now here we can see that if similarly graph is plotted against distance and time then slope is given as

slope = \frac{dx}{dt}

here we can say that above is ratio of small distance and very small interval of time.

so here we can say that this ratio of distance and time for very small interval of time is known as instantaneous speed of the object which is falling freely under gravity.

So here slope of the graph will represent the speed at a given instant.

An ideal gas in a cylinder occupies a volume of 0.065 m3 at room temperature (T = 293 K). The gas is confined by a piston with a
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

There are three forces acting on the piston

1. force due to atmospheric pressure = F1 downward

2. force due to gaseous pressure = F2 upward

3. force due to the weight placed on the piston = F3 = mg downward

As the piston is in equilibrium condition, so the net force on the piston is zero.
