Answer:

Energy causes matter to move from one state to another.

Explanation:

Example: Adding thermal energy (heat) to liquid water (matter) causes water to become steam or vapor (gas).

5) You did 170 joules of work lifting a 140 N backpack. How high did you lift the backpack?

xeze [42]

Sorry im from the UK, ill do my math in metric :)
5) work done = force * distance moved in direction of force

170J = 140N* ?d
170J/140N = 1.21m

F=Ma

140N/9.81ms^-2=

14.27Kg or 31.46Ib

you could do the fast alternative simplified route to this question

as 140/4.45 = 31.46Ib

What would the acceleration of a car be from a stoplight if it started at 0 m/s and reached a

trapecia [35]

Answer:

The acceleration of a car would be: $a=12.8$ m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity = $v_1=0$ m/s

Final velocity = $v_f=100$ m/s

Time elapsed = $t = 7.8$ s

To determine

We need to determine the acceleration of a car.

We know that acceleration is basically the rate of change in velocity over time.

Thus,

We can determine the acceleration using the formula

$\:\:\:a=\:\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

where

$a$ is the acceleration

$v_1$ is the initial velocity

$v_f$ is the final velocity

$t$ is time elapsed

now substituting the values $v_1=0$ , $v_f=100$ , and $t = 7.8$ in the formula

$\:\:\:a=\:\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

$a=\:\frac{100-0}{7.8}$

$a=\frac{100}{7.8}$

$a=12.8$ m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of a car would be: $a=12.8$ m/s²

One end of a 34-m unstretchable rope is tied to a tree; the other end is tied to a car stuck in the mud. The motorist pulls side

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Fc = 89.67N

Explanation:

Since the rope is unstretchable, the total length will always be 34m.

From the attached diagram, you can see that we can calculate the new separation distance from the tree and the stucked car H as follows:

L1+L2=34m

$L1^2=L2^2=L^2=2^2+(H/2)^2$ Replacing this value in the previous equation:

$\sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}+ \sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}=34$ Solving for H:

$H=\sqrt{52}$

We can now, calculate the angle between L1 and the 2m segment:

$\alpha = atan(\frac{H/2}{2})=60.98°$

If we make a sum of forces in the midpoint of the rope we get:

$-2*T*cos(\alpha ) + F = 0$ where T is the tension on the rope and F is the exerted force of 87N.

Solving for T, we get the tension on the rope which is equal to the force exerted on the car:

$T=Fc=\frac{F}{2*cos(\alpha) } = 89.67N$

Describe what happens to the energy of a wave if the frequency decreases and the frequency increased

Nata [24]

"As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. This basically means that when the wavelength is increased, the frequency decreases and vice versa. Wavelength is described as the distance between a trough to a trough or a crest to a crest."

I'd recommend paraphrasing it tho.
