You push really hard against a round rock, but you cannot make it roll. Which statement best explains why you cannot move the ro

Answer:

b

Explanation:

a Gravity pulls the rock toward the center of Earth.

b The forces between you and the rock are balanced.

c The force of your push is greater than the opposing force.

d There is no friction to help you move the object.

The correct answer would be that <u>the forces between you and the rock are balanced.</u>

<em>In order to get the rock rolling, both the frictional force between the rock and the surface on which it stands as well as the gravitational force acting on its mass must be exceeded. If the applied force balances these forces or falls short, the rock will not move.</em>

The correct option is b.

Why does a heater having low resistance heating coils get heated more?​
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: If you use a very small resistance AND the circuit design is such that the voltage drop is across the resistance of the heating-wire-circuit, [nothing else in the circuit is limiting current flow] you will get more heating. That's what we have in a heat anticipator internal-nichrome-wire-heater device.

A student pushes on a 8-kg box with a force of 35 N forward. The force of sliding friction is 10 N backward. What is the acceler
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

The formula for Force is:

Force = Mass*Acceleration

(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)

Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:

Acceleration = Force/Mass

(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)

We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.

= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg

The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.

= 25 N/8kg

= 3.125 m/s^2

Hope it helps :DD

(1 pt) A bucket of water of mass 20 kg is pulled at constant velocity up to a platform 35 meters above the ground. This takes 14
Elenna [48]

Answer:

w = 5832.372 Joules

Explanation:

Mass of water, m = 20 kg

The water was pulled up to a height of 35 meters, i.e. h = 35 m

It takes 14 minutes to pull up the water through the height, 35 m

speed = distance/ time = 35/14 = 2.5 m/min

The bucket's height, y = speed * time = 2.5t meters

6 kg of water drips out of the bucket throughout the 14 minutes

The rate at which the water drips drips out = (6/14) = 0.4286 kg/min

Mass of water that drips out in time, t = 0.4286t kg

The mass of water remaining = (20 - 0.4286t) kg

Change in Workdone, Δw = mgΔy

Δy = 2.5 Δt

Δw = mg *  2.5 Δt

dw =  (20 - 0.4286t)g2.5 dt

integrating both sides

dw = (50g - 1.07gt)dt

w = \int\limits^a_b {(50g-1.07gt)} \, dx where b = 0, a = 14

w = 50gt - 1.07g(t²)/2      g = 9.8 m/s²

w = 490t - 5.243t²

w = (490*14 - 5.243*14²) - (490*0 - 5.243*0²)

w = 6860 - 1027.628

w = 5832.372 Joules
