Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.

Compare the freezing point of water in the aquanaut’s apartment to its value at the surface. Is it higher, lower, or the same?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Freezing Point - Lower

Boiling Point - Higher

Solid- liquid transition line in the phase diagram has a negative slope, but the liquid-gas transition line has a positive slope. Since there is more air pressure at 100m it will take less to freeze the water but more to boil it since it requires a larger temperature under larger pressures

A jet airplane has a velocity of 1145 knots. A knot is 1 nautical mile (nm)/hr. A nautical
Tanya [424]

Answer:

1 m = 39.37 in = 39.37/12 ft = 3.28 ft

V = 1145 k/hr  = 1145k/hr * 6076 ft/k = 6957020 ft / hr

V = 6957020 ft/hr / 3600 s/hr = 1933 ft/sec

V = 1933 ft/sec / (3.28 ft / m) = 589 m/s

Check:

88 ft/sec = 60 mph

(1145 k/hr * 6076 ft / k) 3600 sec/hr = 1933 ft/sec = 589 m/s

1933 ft/sec / (88 ft/sec) * 60 mph = 1318 mph

Also,  1318 / 1145 = 6076 / 5280       as it should

What would happened if there is no invented of machine?​
yuradex [85]

if there were no invention of machines then life would have been more difficult and simple works could be hard to do. Even now we are using our phones, sitting in a AC room interacting to eachother from different places. without the invention of machines simple things like transportation would have been difficult. There would be horses and donkey for the transportation. There would be no electricity,no internet, no transportation, not even c computers or mobile etc. The market for business will be smaller, the knowledge and news about world would be less.

so the problem would have been bigger than we can imagine. But one thing is that nature could survive lot more compared to what we have done till now by destroying nature.
