The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of venus
r is the radius of venus

Substituting the values,

a = (6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²)(4.88x10²⁴ kg)/(6.06x10⁶ m)²
<em>a = 8.87 m/s²</em>

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.

We know, Mechanical Energy = K.E. + P.E.
As ball is at ground, P.E. would be zero. But as it is in motion, it must have some K.E. and that is:

K.E. = 1/2 mv²
K.E. = 1/2 * 1 * 2²
K.E. = 4/2
K.E. = 2 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

Use the law of conservation of energy (assume no friction nor air resistance) to determine the kinetic and potential energy at t
slava [35]

Answer:

Part A

1) At the starting point, we have;

PE = 40,000 J

2) PE = 0 J, KE = 40,000 J

3) KE = 20,000 J

4) PE = 15,000 J

5) KE = 32,500 J

6) KE = 40,000 J, PE = 0 J

7) KE = 35,000 J

8) KE = 40,000 J, PE = 0 J

Part B

The total Mechanical Energy = ME = 40,000 J

At the final point, we have;

ME = KE + PE = 40,000 J + 0 J = 40,000 J

Explanation:

Part A

By the law of conservation of energy, we have;

ME = PE + KE

Where;

ME = The total Mechanical Energy of the system

PE = The Potential Energy of the system

KE = The Kinetic Energy of the system

Where there is no friction, we have;

At the final stage, KE = 40,000 J. PE = 0 J

Therefore, ME = PE + KE = 40,000 J + 0 J = 40,000 J

1) At the starting point, we have;

KE = 0 J, therefore, PE = ME - KE = 40,000 J - 0 J = 40,000 J

2) At the bottom of the roller coaster, at the same level the PE is taken as PE = 0 J at the final stage, we have;

PE = 0 J, therefore, KE = ME - PE = 40,000 J - 0 J = 40,000 J

3) Where PE = 20,000 J, KE = ME - PE = 40,000 J - 20,000 J = 20,000 J

4) Where KE = 25,000 J, PE = ME - KE = 40,000 J - 25,000 J = 15,000 J

5) Where PE = 7,500 J, KE = ME - PE = 40,000 J - 7,500 J = 32,500 J

6) At the bottom KE = 40,000 J, PE = 0 J

7) Where PE = 5,000 J, KE = ME - PE = 40,000 J - 5,000 J = 35,000 J

8) KE = 40,000 J, PE = 0 J

Part B

The given that there is no friction nor air resistance, the total Mechanical Energy, ME, is constant and equal to the sum of the Potential Energy, PE and the Kinetic Energy, KE, as follows;

ME = KE + PE

At the final point, we have;

ME = 40,000 J + 0 J = 40,000 J

The total Mechanical Energy = ME = 40,000 J

A rubbit gets down from a rump which its /\x=0.85m in 0.5s, The rubbit's mass is 2kg, what is the net Force?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: 13.6 N

Explanation:

The equation of motion for the rabbit is:

\Delta x=V_{ox}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{x}t^{2} (1)

Where:

\Delta x=0.85 m is the distance traveled by the rabbit

V_{ox}=0 m/s is the rabbit's initial velocity, assuming it started from rest

t=0.5 s is the time

a_{x} is the acceleration

Isolating a_{x}:

a_{x}=\frac{2 \Delta x}{t^{2}} (2)

a_{x}=\frac{2 (0.85 m)}{(0.5)^{2}} (3)

a_{x}=6.8 m/s^{2} (4)

On the other hand, the force F_{x} is given by:

F_{x}=m.a_{x} (5)

Where m=2 kg is the mass of the rabbit

Substituting (4) in (5):

F_{x}=(2 kg)(6.8 m/s^{2}) (6)

Finally:

F_{x}=13.6 N
