The work done is equal to the change in potential energy which is:
P.E = mgh
P.E = 500 x 9.81 x 15
P.E = 73,575 J

Power = work / time
Power = 73,575 / 20
Power = 3,700 Watts

A 1.5kg cart moves along a track at 0.20m/s until it hits a fixed bumper at the end of the track. Find the average force exerted
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Net force will be 4.875 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the cart m = 1.5 kg

Initial velocity of the cart  = 0.2 m/sec

And final velocity of the car = - 0.125 m/sec ( Negative direction is due to opposite direction )

Instant of time \Delta t=0.1sec

Change in momentum is given by

\Delta P=1.5\times (0.2-(-0.125))=1.5\times 0.325=0.4875kgm/sec

Now force is given by

F=\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.4875}{0.1}=4.875N

Net force will be 4.875 N

If the distance between two objects decreased, what would happen to the force of gravity between them?
evablogger [386]

Answer: A- It would increase

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}  

Where:  

F is the module of the attraction force exerted between both objects

G is the universal gravitation constant.  

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both objects  

r is the distance between both objects

As we can see, the gravity force is directly proportional to the mass of the bodies or objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

In other words:

<h2>If we decrease the distance between both objects, the gravitational force between them will increase.  </h2>

Why a raw egg shell disolves when submerge in vineger
quester [9]
If you soak this egg shell in vinegar (which is about 4% acetic acid), you start a chemical reaction that dissolves the calcium carbonate shell. The acetic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in the egg shell and releases carbon dioxide gas that you see as bubbles on the shell.

What are the factors that effect the strength of a frictional force???
seropon [69]

If you write down the formula for friction, you will get an answer.

Ff = u * N               Where N is a push down force that an object experiences.

                              u (mu) is a constant and has no units

It may not be accelerating and still experience friction. A is not correct.

Color and Density will not affect the frictional force. B is not so.

Buoyant forces are a different thing altogether. Generally friction has nothing to do with them. C is incorrect.

The last one is your answer. Technically mg should be the answer and not mass, but the second part is correct.
