Answer:

their weight difference

Explanation:

weight adds to kinetic energy. a heavier object will have a higher kinetic energy because the extra weight will slowly increase or decrease the velocity depending on if it's being sent down a decline or inclined plane

Naddik [55]

Answer:

a. 8.3 minutes average distance from earth to the sun

d. 93 miles or 150 million km

Explanation:

The distance between the earth and the sun is defined as an astronomical unit (AU). It takes 8.3 minutes to go from earth to the sun at the speed of light. That distance has a length of 150 million Kilometers or 93 miles.  

It is common to see in planet charts that distance to the sun are compared in astronomical units. In the case of Mars is 1.524 AU away from the sun.

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

A rock is lifted by a machine to a height of 10m. If it has a mass of 22 kilograms
zmey [24]

Answer:

2156J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of lift  = 10m

Mass  = 22kg

Unknown:

Work done by the machine  = ?

Solution:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.

So;

        Work done  = Force x distance

Here;

       Work done  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

      Work done  = 22 x 9.8 x 10  = 2156J
