hope my answer helps you mark me brianliest （⌒▽⌒）

Explanation:

Even you exert a gravitational force on other objects. Because your mass is so much less than the mass of the Earth, you can't feel your gravitational force. ... Because the Earth's gravity has the same pull on every object, all objects fall at the same speed (in a vacuum),and alsoGravity not only pulls on mass but also on light. Albert Einstein discovered this principle. If you shine a flashlight upwards, the light will grow imperceptibly redder as gravity pulls it. You can't see the change with your eyes, but scientists can measure it.

A person pulls a crate of mass M = 63 kg a distance 40.0 m along a horizontal floor by a constant force FP = 130 N, which acts a

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Check attachment for solution and diagrams

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of crate m=63kg

Distance travelled d=40m

Horizontal force Fx=130N

Angle the force applied on cord makes with horizontal is θ=23°.

The weight of the crate is given by

W=mg

W=63×9.81

W=618.03N

Horizontal force Fx=130N

Resolving the applied Force F to the horizontal will give

Fx=FCos θ

F=Fx/Cos θ

F=130/Cos23

F=141.2N

a. Check attachment for model diagram

b. Check attachment for free body diagram

c. Check attachment for pictorial representation

d. Work done by gravitational force.

We, know that the body did not move upward, then the distance d=0

Work done is given as

W=F×d

So, d=0

W=F×0

W=0J

So, no work is done by gravity

e. Normal force?

Using newton law of motion

ΣFy = may

Since the body is not moving upward, then ay=0m/s²

N+141.2Sin23-618.03=0

N=618.03-141.2Sin23

N=562.86N

f. Work done by normal force.

The body is not moving upward, then the distance is zero

d=0

Work done by normal=normal force × distance

Wn=562.86×0

Wn=0J

No work is done by the normal force

g. Frictional force?

Since the coefficient of kinetic friction is zero, then the surface is frictionless

So, no frictional force is acting on the body

Fictional force is given as

Fr=μk•N

Given that, μk=0

Fr=0×562.86

Fr=0N

d. Work done by frictional force?

Since the frictional force Is zero, then, no work is done by friction

W(friction ) = frictional force × d

Here, the body moved a distance of 40m

W(fr)=0×40

W(fr)=0J

No work is done by friction

I. Work done by exerted force

The horizontal component of the exerted force is 130N and the body traveled a distance of 40m

Then, work done is given as

Workdone=force ×distance

Work done=130×40

W=5200J

W=5.2KJ

h. Net workdone?

Since no work is lost by friction, then, the net work done is equal to the work done by the exerted force.

Went, = work done by force exerted - work done by friction

Wnet=5200-0

Wnet, =5200

Wnet=5.2KJ

25. IF THE ROADWAY IS WET AND THE CAR STARTS TO SKID, YOU SHOULD: A. Slow down by pumping the brakes quickly and firmly B. Slow

AnnZ [28]

If the roadway is wet and the cars starts to skid, one should slow down by shifting to lower gear. The correct option is B.

<h3>What are gears?</h3>

A gear is component used to transmit motion. They are used in cars, trucks, machines, bicycles, etc.

For a car to avoid skidding on the wet roads, one must drive the car slowly. This can be done by shifting the gear to the lower one. This will help car to keep balance when brakes are applied on wet roads.

Thus, the correct option is B.

The battery charger for an mp3 player contains a step-down transformer with a turns ratio of 1:38, so that the voltage of 120 v

matrenka [14]

Transformer contains two coils: primary and secondary. They allow change of voltage to lower or higher value. In first case we have step-down and in second case we have step-up transformer.
Formula used for transformer is: $\frac{N_{1} }{N_{2}} = \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}$

Where:N1 = number of turns on primary coilN2 = number of turns on secondary coilV1 = voltage on primary coilV2 = voltage on secondary coil
In a step-down transformer primary coil has more turns than secondary coil. So the ratio 1:38 means that for each turn on secondary coil we have 38 turns on primary coil.
We can solve the equation for V2: $V_{2} = \frac{ V_{1}* N_{2} }{ N_{1} } \\ V_{2} = \frac{ 120* x }{ 38x} } \\ V_{2} = 3.16V$

Secondary coil provides voltage of 3.16V.

Total mechanical energy (The sum of kinetic and potential energy

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Emechanical=mgh+ $\frac{1}{2}$ mν²

Explanation:

The equation for the total mechanical energy is:

Emechanical=Epotential+Ekinetic

In which,

Epotential=mgh; m: mass of the body, g: gravity; h: height

Ekinetic= $\frac{1}{2}$ mν²; m: mass of the body, ν: velocity of the body

So,

Emechanical=mgh+ $\frac{1}{2}$ mν²
