<h3>
Answer: 130 newtons</h3>
===============================================================
Explanation:
We'll need the acceleration first.
- The initial speed (let's call that Vi) is 8.0 m/s
- The final speed (Vf) is 0 m/s since Sam comes to a complete stop at the end.
- This happens over a duration of t = 4.0 seconds
The acceleration is equal to the change in speed over change in time
a = acceleration
a = (change in speed)/(change in time)
a = (Vf - Vi)/(4 seconds)
a = (0 - 8.0)/4
a = -8/4
a = -2
The acceleration is -2 m/s^2, meaning that Sam slows down by 2 m/s every second. Negative accelerations are often associated with slowing down. The term "deceleration" can be used here.
Here's a further break down of Sam's speeds at the four points of interest
- At 0 seconds, he's going 8 m/s
- At the 1 second mark, he's slowing down to 8-2 = 6 m/s
- At the 2 second mark, he's now at 6-2 = 4 m/s
- At the 3 second mark, he's at 4-2 = 2 m/s
- Finally, at the 4 second mark, he's at 2-2 = 0 m/s
Next, we'll apply Newton's Second Law of motion
F = m*a
where,
- F = force applied
- m = mass
- a = acceleration
We just found the acceleration, and the mass is fairly easy as all we need to do is add Sam's mass with the sled's mass to get 60+5.0 = 65 kg
So the force applied must be:
F = m*a
F = 65*(-2)
F = -130 newtons
This force is negative to indicate it's pushing against the sled's momentum to slow Sam down.
The magnitude of this force is |F| = |-130| = 130 newtons
Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with incrementing altitude. The pressure at any caliber in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a homogeneous surface at lower calibers.
They both are two different elements.SO the answer is Element
Energy and Work have the same unit of measurement which is Joules in SI units.
Explanation:
- A Joule of Work is said to be done on an object when energy is transferred to that particular object.
- If two objects are involved, when one object transfers energy onto the second, a joule of work is said to be done by the first object.
- Work is also the application of force on an object over a distance. So Work = Force × Displacement
- Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is in 2 forms - kinetic and potential.
- Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object while potential energy is known as the energy that is stored within an object.
- Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²
- Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height
- Both energy and work are measured in Joules.
Scientists have been observing Earth for a long time. They use NASA satellites and other instruments to collect many types of information about Earth's land, atmosphere, ocean and ice. This information tells us that Earth's climate is getting warmer.
Extra:
Extra greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are the main reason that Earth is getting warmer. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane, trap the Sun's heat in Earth's atmosphere.
It's normal for there to be some greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. They help keep Earth warm enough to live on. But too many greenhouse gases can cause too much warming.
The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil increase the amount of CO2 in our air. This happens because the burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2.
It's important that we monitor CO2 levels, because too much CO2 can cause too much warming on Earth. Several NASA missions have instruments that study CO2 in the atmosphere.
