Answer:
The increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases
Explanation:
It is easier to climb a mountain in a zigzag way rather than climbing on a straight line but since the distance is the same ( vertical height ) , mass and gravity is the same. Hence the increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases.
gravitational potential energy = mgh ( same in both cases )
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = distance ( vertical height )
Answer:
Acceleration is the change in velocity, not the velocity itself; therefore, an object can have zero velocity but not zero acceleration because the velocity will be changing.

Answer:
a
The torque produced by the pile of rocks is 
b
The distance of the single for equilibrium to occur is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the left rock is 
The mass of the rock on the right 
The distance from fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is 
Generally the torque produced by the pile of rock is mathematically represented as
Substituting values
Generally we can mathematically evaluated the distance of the the single rock that would put the system in equilibrium as follows
The torque due to the single rock is
At equilibrium the both torque are equal
Making 
the subject of the formula
Substituting values
Explanation:
the vehicles displacement, since displacement deals with position
Answer: Why does the cord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does? The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.
