A.  The friction between two pieces of sandpaper is greater than
the friction between any of the pairs of surfaces.

D.  Juan should decrease the mass of his go-kart.  Then any force
that pushes it forward will give it greater forward acceleration.

When work is done by an applied force, the object's energy will change. In this Interactive, does the work cause a kinetic energ
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all the forces by a body is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

Work done = change in kinetic energy

W = Final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy

So, work causes change in kinetic energy.

Two friends of different masses are on the playground. They are playing on the seesaw and are able to balance it even though the
Svetradugi [14.3K]
1) They are able to balance the torques due to gravity.

The torque is equal fo Force * lever arm.

The force downward is due to gravity, Force = mass*gravity.

Then the heavier student will produce a bigger force downgar and he/she shall shorten the lever arm of his/her side, by placing himself closer to the rotation axis, than the lighter student.

What is the instantaneous velocity of a freely falling object 9.0 s after it is released from a position of rest? Express your a
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

So instantaneous velocity after 9 sec will be 88.2 m/sec              

Explanation:

We have given time t = 9 sec

As the object is released from rest so its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

We have to find its final velocity v

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

From first equation of motion we know that v=u+gt

v=0+9.8\times 9=88.2m/sec

So instantaneous velocity after 9 sec will be 88.2 m/sec
