Answer:

-58.8 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force is given by:

W=Fdcos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement.

In this problem, we are asked to find the work done by gravity, so we must calculate the magnitude of the force of gravity first, which is equal to the weight of the object:

F=mg=(2.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=19.6 N

The displacement of the object is d = 3.00 m, while \theta=180^{\circ}, because the displacement is upward, while the force of gravity is downward; therefore, the work done by gravity is

W=Fdcos \theta=(19.6 N)(3.00 m)(cos 180^{\circ})=-58.8 J

And the work done is negative, because it is done against the motion of the object.

Answer:

-58.8 J

Explanation:

Work done on the object by gravity = Force due to gravity x Displacement

Force due to gravity = weight of the object

                                  = m g

                                  = (2.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

                                  = 19.6 N

The force due to gravity acts in downwards direction opposite the direction of the displacement. Thus, the angle between the force and the displacement is 180°.

Work done on the object by gravity

= 19.6 N x 3.00 m x cos 180° = -58.8 J

Why does the moon turn red during a lunar eclipse?.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

During a lunar eclipse, the Moon turns red because the only sunlight reaching the Moon passes through Earth's atmosphere. The more dust or clouds in Earth's atmosphere during the eclipse, the redder the Moon will appear.

Una persona de 80 kg de masa corre a una velocidad cuya magnitud es de 9m/s. Cual es la magnitud de la cantidad de movimiento? Q
natka813 [3]

Responder:

13,01 m / s

Explicación:

Paso uno:

datos dados

masa de la persona 1 m = 80 kg

velocidad de la persona 1 v = 9 m / s

masa de la persona 2 M = 55kg

velocidad de la persona 2 v =?

Segundo paso:

la expresión del impulso se da como

P = mv

para la primera persona, el impulso es

P = 80 * 9

P = 720N

Paso tres:

queremos que la segunda persona tenga el mismo impulso que la primera, por lo que la velocidad debe ser

720 = 55v

v = 720/55

v = 13,09

v = 13,01 m / s

Por lo tanto, la magnitud de la velocidad debe ser 13.01 m / s.

An object with a mass of 5.0 kg is accelerating toward the surface of Earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2
vlabodo [156]
The answer is A. Force is equal to mass x acceleration. The acceleration due to gravity is a constant so multiplying the mass by 2 would double the force.
