two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. each tug exerts a constant force of 2.20×106 n , one at an angle 19.0 ∘ west of north,

and the other at an angle 19.0 ∘ east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.890 km toward the north.

The amount of work the two tugboats completed on the supertanker W = 3.12 × 10^9 joules .

Work is a physics term used to describe the energy transfer that takes place when an object is moved over a distance by an external force, at least some . The component of the force acting along the path multiplied by the length of the path can be used to calculate work if the force is constant. Mathematically, this idea is expressed as W = fd, where W is the work and f is the force multiplied by d, the distance. Work is completed when the force is applied at an angle of with respect to the displacement. Performing work on a body involves moving it in its entirety from one location to another as well as other methods.  However, the work is thought to be negative if the applied force is in opposition to the item's motion, indicating that energy is being pulled away from the object

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when an unbalanced force acts on it?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be<em> balance force  </em>if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be<em> unbalanced force </em>if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to <em>Newton second law of motion </em>, acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

     F=ma

     a=\frac{F}{m}

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.

Over millions of years weathered rock soil dead plant and animal remains are pressed and cemented together under the ground form
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

The statement being made is completely true. This layer of rock is called a Sedimentary Rock level and is slowly formed over millions of years with minerals and organic remains from the bottom of the Oceans that may no longer be covered in water anymore. Since it is made up of all these minerals and remains, it is studied widely by Geologists and Archeologists to better understand the Earth's past.

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220
disa [49]
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, \mu m g. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
ma=-\mu m g
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2
where v_f=0 is the final speed of the skier and v_i=4.75 m/s is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m

A police officer is called to the scene of a car accident in his accident he sketches the scene and describes it according to hi
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The driver was not telling the truth because it is not possible for a car to hit another car from behind and generate a force to the sides that deflects it from its path.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the driver's statement.

The driver when arriving at the curve, is collided from behind by another car and deviates from his path and crashes into a tree. For the car to go to the tree there must be a force towards the tree.

The net force that causes the car to deviate must be formed by the sum of the motion vector of the first car plus the force that is directed towards the tree.

Here we verify that a car hitting from behind will not generate a force to the sides, but will generate a force in the same direction that the car moves, forward.
