The strength of the friction doesn't matter. Neither does the distance or the time the asteroid takes to stop. All that matters is that the asteroid has
1/2 (mass) (speed squared)
of kinetic energy when it lands, and zero when it stops.
So
1/2 (mass) (original speed squared)
is the energy it loses to friction in order to come to rest.
A. gravity is your answer hope this helps
Answer:
B, B (decreases, a clockwise)
Explanation:
Finally, the switch on the electromagnet is reopened. The magnitude of the external magnetic flux through the wire loop <u>decreases</u>, and there is <u>a clockwise</u>, current induced in the loop (as seen from the left).
<span>Mass of the block m = 3.3kg
Angle of the slide = 30 degrees
Distance the block slides s = 2.10 m
Time taken to slide t = 1.6 s
Initially in rest condition so initial velocity u = 0.
We have an equation for distance s = (u x t) + (1/2) x (a t^2)
s = (0 x t) + (1/2) x (a x (1.6) ^2) => 2.10 = (1/2) x (a x2.56)
2.56a = 4.20 => a = 1.64
So the magnitude of the Acceleration a = 1.64 m/s^2</span>
free fall is a special type of motion in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity. all objects will fall with the same rate of acceleration, regardless of their mass.
