Answer:

207Nm

Explanation:

Work on said to be done when an applied force causes an object to move through a particular distance. mathematically,

Work done = Force(f)×distance in the direction of force.

Given force of gravoty = 45N

Height = corresponding Distance= 4.6m

Work done = 45×4.6

Work done= 207Nm

This shows that 207Nm of work is done by the force of gravity when a 45 N object falls to the ground from a height of 4.6 m.

1) The unit of power is

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

1) the unit of power is A.Watt

2)100J=50W

100=50s

divide both sides by 50s

S=2s(A)

You are running at a speed of 10km/h and hit a patch of mud. Two seconds later you speed is 8km/h. What is your acceleration in

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

$0.28 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time interval

In this problem:

$u = 10 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=2.78 m/s$ is the initial velocity

$v = 8 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}= 2.22 m/s$ is the final velocity

t = 2 s is the time

Substituting, we find the acceleration:

$a=\frac{2.78-2.22}{2}=0.28 m/s^2$

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Jupiter is about 2.5 times the acceleration due to gravity on Earth’s surface.

Ann [662]

Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Weight = Mass × Acceleration

Let the mass of the space probe be m

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth = g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W

$W=m\times g$

Acceleration due to gravity on the Jupiter = g' = 2.5g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W'

$W'=mg'=m\times 2.5g$

$\frac{W'}{W}=\frac{m\times 2.5g}{m\times g}$

$W'=2.5\times W$

The weight of the space probe on the Jupiter will be 2.5 times the weight of the space probe on earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Which of the following ranching practices contributes to soil erosion?

Natasha2012 [34]

A. overgrazing of livestock

Explanation:

Overgrazing of livestock is the ranch practice that contributes to soil erosion.

Soil erosion is the washing away of the top layer of the earth on which plant grows.

Plants are covers of the earth and they prevent agents of denudation from actively washing away the soil.
When livestock are introduced into a place, continuous grazing leaves the surface bare.
The plants becomes depleted and the surface is exposed.
This fast tracks the process of overgrazing.
