Answer:1.63 m

Explanation:

Given

mass of block m=0.5 kg

inclination \theta =30^{\circ}

Amount of work done W=4 J

block slides a distance s along the Plane

Work done =change in Potential Energy

Increase in height of block is s\sin \theta

Change in Potential Energy =mg(\sin \theta -0)

\Delta P.E.=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

4=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

s=\frac{4}{2.45}      

s=1.63 m

A cylindrical wire has a resistance R and resistivity ρ. If its length and diameter are BOTH cut in half, what will be its resis
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The resistance will be 2×R

Explanation:

We note that the resistivity of a cylindrical wire is given by the following relation;

\rho = \frac{RA}{L}

Where:

ρ = Resistivity of the wire

R = The wire resistance

A = Cross sectional area of the wire = π·D²/4

L = Length  of the wire

Rearranging, we have;

R= \frac{\rho L}{A}

If the length and the diameter are both cut in half, we have;

L₂ = L/2

A₂ =π·D₂²/4 = \pi \cdot \left (\frac{D}{2}   \right )^{2} \times \frac{1}{4}  = \pi \cdot \frac{D^{2}}{16} = A/4

Therefore, the new resistance, R₂ can be expressed as follows;

R_2= \frac{\rho \frac{L}{2} }{\frac{A}{4} } = \rho \frac{L}{2} \times \frac{4}{A} = 2 \times  \frac{\rho L}{A}

Hence, the new resistance R₂ =  2×R, that is the resistance will be doubled.

To compare the hearing capacities of 5 of his friends, Ravi designs a simple experiment. He places a CD player at the end of a l
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

A) having each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5.

Explanation:

Ravi could accurately use the outcome to compare the hearing capacities of his friends by this experiment if appropriate precautions are observed.

Playing 5 well known songs simultaneously could result to the interference of sounds when each participant moves away from the player. Which could naturally cause the variation in volume of the songs played with respect to the increasing distance.

Therefore, the reliability of the result from this experiment can be increased if each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5 at a predetermined volume. Each participant would be able to focus on hearing a song during the experiment.

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

"Longitudinal wave" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

  • Generating waves whenever the form of communication being displaced in a similar direction as well as in the reverse way of the wave's designated points, could be determined as Longitudinal waves.
  • A wave running the length of something like a Slinky stuffed animal, which expands as well as reduces the spacing across spindles, produces a fine image or graphic.

In the equation vx^2=v0x^2+2ax(x-x0) what does the terms vx, v0x, x, and x0 stand for respectively?
tatuchka [14]

B. velocity at position x, velocity at position x=0, position x, and the original position

In the equation

v_{x}^{2} = v_{ox}^{2} +2 a x (x - x₀)

v_{x} = velocity at position "x"

v_{ox} = velocity at position "x = 0 "

x = final position

x_{o} = initial position of the object at the start of the motion
