Answer: 17.658kJ

Explanation:

The work done in lifting the refridgerator is given my

W = F.d

Where W = Work done, F = Force and d = distance/height to be covered by that force = 6m

But F = mg (this work is done against gravity)

Where m = mass of fridge and g = acceleration due to gravity.

F = 300kg × 9.81m/s^2

= 2943N

W = Fh (where h is the height to be scaled by the force)

W = 2943 × 6

W = 17658J

17.658kJ of work is needed to lift the refridgerator to a height of 6m

uniform electric field of magnitude 365 N/C pointing in the positive x-direction acts on an electron, which is initially at rest
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

a)   W = - 1.752 10⁻¹⁸ J,  b)    U = + 1.752 10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

a) work is defined by

         W = F . x

the bold letters indicate vectors, in this case the force is electric

         F = q E

we substitute

         F = q E x

the charge of the electron is

         q = - e

         F = - e E x

let's calculate

         W = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹  365  3 10⁻²

         W = - 1.752 10⁻¹⁸ J

b) the change in potential energy is

          U = q ΔV

the potential difference is

          ΔV = - E. Δs

 

we substitute

         U = - q E Δs

the charge of the electron is

           q = - e

          U = e E Δs

we calculate

           U = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 365  3 10⁻²

           U = + 1.752 10⁻¹⁸ J

A space ship has four thrusters positioned on the top and bottom, and left and right as shown below. The thrusters can be operat
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The correct answer is - c.  Spaceship will have a velocity to the East and will be slowing down.

Explanation:

In this case, if turned on thruster #2 then it will exert force on the west side as thruster 2 is on the east side and it can be understood by Newton's third law that says each action has the same but opposite reaction.

As the spaceship engine applies force on the east side then according to the law the exhauster gas applies on towards west direction. It will try to decrease the velocity of the spaceship however, the direction of floating still be east side initally.

An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0km/hour is blowing southward.
qaws [65]

Answer:

a)  correct answer is C , b) 14º  from the west to the north, c)   v_{1g} = 300.79 km / h

Explanation:

This is a relative speed exercise using the addition of speeds.

1) when it is not specified regarding what is being measured, the medicine is carried out with respect to the Z Earth, therefore the correct answer is C

2 and 3) In this case we must compose the speed using the Pythagorean Theorem.

     v_{1a}² = v_{1g}² + v_{ag}²

where v_{1a} is the speed of the airplane with respect to the air, v_{1g} airplane speed with respect to the Earth, v_{ag} air speed with respect to the Earth

in this case let's clear the speed of the airplane with respect to the Earth

  v_{1g} = √(v_{1a}² - v_{ag}²)

 v_{1g} = √ (310² - 75²)

 v_{1g} = 300.79 km / h

we find the direction of the airplane using trigonometry

   sin θ = v_{ag} / v_{1a}

   θ = sin⁻¹ (v_{ag} /v_{1a})

   θ = sin⁻¹ (75/310)

   θ= 14º

the pilot must direct the aircraft at an angle of 14º from the west to the north
