200 joules of work energy are involved.  That's all we need to know to answer the question.  Once we know that 200 joules of work energy are involved, we don't care what was lifted, or how far, or how long it took, or how many people worked on it, or how much they were paid, or what was the distribution of their gender identities, or the ethnic diversity among the team. or what day each of them celebrates as their sabbath.  Any other information besides the 200 joules is only there to distract us, and see whether we're paying attention.

Power = (work or energy) / (time to do the work or move the energy)

Power = (200 joules) / (5 seconds)

<em>Power = 40 watts</em>

you decide to work part time at a local supermarket. The job pays eight dollars and 60 per hour and you work 20 hours per week.
aleksley [76]

Answer:

I guess that we want to find how much money you get each week.

We know that the job pays $8.60 per hour.

We know that you work 20 hours per week.

Then the gross pay (the total money that you earn) in a week is 20 times $8.60, or:

20*$8.60 = $172.

Now we know that your employer witholds:

10% + 7.65% + 5% = 22.65%

Then your employer withholds 22.65% of your gross pay.

if the 100% of your gross pay is $172

Then the 22.65% will be:

(22.65%/100%)*$172 = 0.2265*$172 = $38.96

This means that your employer withholds $38.96 of your weekly gross pay.

Then each week you get:

$172 - $38.96 = $133.04

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by
Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now here we can say

m_1 = 10 g

v_{1i} = 0

m_2 = 550 g

v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s

now here we can say

10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}

192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5

now by solving the two equation

56v_{2f} = 189

v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s

also we know that

v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s

Write a brief essay describing how Newton’s Laws explain how a rocket in space can move objects
statuscvo [17]
The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they're in motion, they won't stop until a force is applied. Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry. Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward.
