why would a long series of gradual ramps be better than one short, steep ramp for moving heavy blocks of stone?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Because it has more gravitational push on the object

A 500 kg compact car and a 1500 kg truck are accelerated equally.which vehicle exerts more force?how many times more?(im guessing the 1500kg truck exerts more force but i don't know how to solve for how many times more)

Answers


The truck doesn't "exert more force".

It TAKES more force to accelerate the truck at the same rate
as the car, because the truck has more mass.

Think: 
In order to move two rocks, you have to push harder on the heavy one
than you do on the lighter one.

How much more ?

In order to produce the same acceleration . . .

                    half as much mass  ===>  half as much force

                   twice as much mass ===> twice as much force

             ten times as much mass ===> ten times as much force

 a 1500-kg truck
     compared to
  a 500-kg car . . . triple the mass ===> triple the force, in order
                                                               to accelerate them equally .
                                                                    

What is the namefor the ratio of the
voltage applied to
a circuit and the
current in a circuit?

Answers

Answer:

The relationship between voltage and current is called resistance. The relationship between all 3 is called Ohm's Law.

General Formulas and Concepts:
Circuits

Ohm's Law: V = IR

  • V is voltage/EMF
  • I is current
  • R is resistance

Explanation:

Ohm's Law is the fundamental basic for an ohmic surface. All circuits follow Ohm's Law if it is ohmic and assuming all other things constant. It tells the importance of the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in a given current of a battery, wire, and resistor.

It is wise that you memorize this and understand the relationship between all 3.

I don't understand the physics work power and energy unit

Answers


Work and energy are the same thing.  Their unit is the Joule
One joule means the energy it takes to push with a force of 1 newton
through a distance of 1 meter.

The unit of power is the Watt.  That's the rate of work or energy. 
One watt means using 1 joule of energy (for example, push with a force of
1 newton through a distance of 1 meter), and doing that in exactly 1 second.
