Simple machines will reduce the input force, but can allow you to travel farther distances. Your'e body is not putting in as much force, your body will allow you to do more work for a longer time....but yes,it decreases the input force.

What are the two major classifications for virtual machines?

Virtual machines are divided into two major classifications, based on their use and degree of correspondence to any real machine. They are either a system virtual machine or a process virtual machine.

When does the force of gravity becomes greater?

Either if you decrease the distance, or if you increase one or the other of the masses.


Distance equals velocity time the equation sHow is that distance varies as time?

Distance is dependent on time. If there is no time, there is no distance, as distance = velocity * time. As time or speed increases so will distance, therefore, if distance increases, either speed or time must increase. If either speed or time = 0, then distance will equal 0.

What of the changes below would increase the force of Earth's gravity on an object?

The only way to change anythings gravity is to change its' mass. (apex) Increase the mass of the object Decrease the distance of the object from Earth


An increase in accounts receivable is subtracted or added to what?

This depends on what caused the increase. Accounts receivable is the account used when a person or company owes YOU money. With an increase in AR, that means you either performed a service or sold goods to a person or company on account. Since this is an "increase" you will (ADD) the amount to your Account Receivable and Income (or Revenue).


Is an increase in kinetic energy directly proportional to the time it takes for an object to fall slash distance it falls?

The kinetic energy of a falling object is directly proportional to the distance it falls.But the distance is not directly proportional to the time in fall, so the KE is not directly proportionalto the time either.


How do you increase the gravitational pull between two objects?

Either bring them closer together, or increase the mass of one or both of them... As in the case of the earth, and the moon - that would do it (and subsequently, kill us all)... Remember that we are about 4,000 miles from the center of the earth, standing on the ground at sea level... When you double that distance (from the earth's core center), you weight about 1/4 of what you did at sea level... And every doubling of your distance, will have the same net effect (1/4 the pull of gravity, at any point twice as far as the reference measurement)... (Jett Enterprises - Westlake, Ohio)


How are celsius and kelvin alike?

A 1 degree increase in either is the same increase in the amount of thermodynamic temperature. In layman's terms, a 1 degree increase in either feels the same.
