Question 1

In order to do work, the force vector must be

in the same direction as the displacement vector and the motion.

Question 2

In which of the following cases is work being done on an object?

Pulling a trailer up a hill

Question 3

Which situation is an example of NOT doing work?

carrying a box

Question 4

Work is measured in

Joules

Question 5

To find the work done, the force exerted and distance moved are multiplied. A couch is moved twice before you are happy with its placement. The same force was used to move the couch both times. If more work is done the first time it is moved, what do you know about the distance it was moved?

When more work was done, the couch was moved further.

Question 6

A weight lifter raises a 1600 N barbell to a height of 2.0 meters. How much work was done? W = Fd

3200 Joules

Question 7

You and a friend (Alex) are at a a tree-top adventure park .. . . part of the course requires you to climb up a rope. You both climb the same rope in the same amount of time. However, the tension in the rope is greater

when Alex climbs. Who did the most work?

Alex did - more tension means more force - more force means more work was done

Question 8

Doing work at a faster rate creates power.

Question 9

In one challenge on the Titan Games, competitors have to lift 200 pounds up a long ramp. Angel is able to move the weight in 42 seconds. Anthony gets it done in only 38 seconds. Which statement is true?

Anthony has more power than Angel.

Question 10

A mountain climber exerts 41,000 J of work to climb a cliff. How much power does the climber need if she wants to finish in only 500 seconds? Power = Work / time

82 Watts

Question 11

Your family is moving to a new apartment. While lifting a box 83 Joules of work is done to put the box on a truck, you exert an upward force of 75 N for 3 s. How much power is required to do this? (Hint: You only need two of the 3 numbers given!) Power = Work / time

27.7 Watts

As we know that total work done by a force is given by

$W = F.d$

$W = Fdcos\theta$

so it is product of force and displacement along same direction

as we can write it as

$W = (Fcos\theta)(d)$

so it must be the product of force and displacement in same directions so correct answer must be

B. in the same direction as the displacement vector and the motion.

(a) What is the escape speed on a spherical asteroid whose radius is 545 km and whose gravitational acceleration at the surface

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1777.92 m/s

Explanation:

R = Radius of asteroid = 545 km

M = Mass of planet

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 2.9 m/s²

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Acceleration due to gravity is given by

$g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{gR^2}{G}$

The expression of escape velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2G}{R}\dfrac{gR^2}{G}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gR}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 2.9\times 545000}\\\Rightarrow v=1777.92\ m/s$

The escape speed is 1777.92 m/s

Think about it: suppose a meteorite collided head-on with mars and becomes buried under mars's surface. what would be the elasti

Ket [755]

Answer:

Perfectly inelastic collision

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

1. Elastic collision : When the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, the collision is said to be elastic. For example, the collision of two atoms or molecules are considered to be elastic collision.

2. Inelastic collision: When the momentum the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is said to be inelastic. For example, collision of a ball with the mud.

For a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies stick together after collision.

Here, the meteorite collide with the Mars and buried inside it, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic. here the kinetic energy of a body lost completely during the collision.

alexandr1967 [171]

The manipulation of natural sounds via the medium of magnetic tape is called "Musique concrete".

Musique concrete refers to an experimental method of melodic composition utilizing recorded sounds as crude material. The strategy was created around 1948 by the French composer Pierre Schaeffer and his partners at the Studio d'Essai ("Experimental Studio") of the French radio framework. The major guideline of musique concrète lies in the collection of different regular sounds recorded on tape (or, initially, on plates) to deliver a montage of sound.

a 1210 kg roller coaster car is moving 6.33 m/s. as it approaches the station, brakes slow it down to 2.38 m/s over a distance o

Stels [109]

Answer:

4960 N

Explanation:

First, find the acceleration.

Given:

v₀ = 6.33 m/s

v = 2.38 m/s

Δx = 4.20 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(2.38 m/s)² = (6.33 m/s)² + 2a (4.20 m)

a = -4.10 m/s²

Next, find the force.

F = ma

F = (1210 kg) (-4.10 m/s²)

F = -4960 N

The magnitude of the force is 4960 N.

Two hockey players have a total momentum of +200 kg x m/s before a collision (+ is to the right). After the collision, they move

Juliette [100K]

Total momentum after the collision: +200 kg m/s to the right

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using the law of conservation of momentum, which states that for an isolated system (=no external forces acting on the system), the total momentum is conserved.

Mathematically,

$p_i=p_f$
