Answer: 2 J

Explanation: Kinetic energy is possessed by a body due to virtue of its motion. A body gains kinetic energy when some work is done on it.

W = Δ K.E.

We know that work is said to be done on a body when a force causes displacement of the body.

W = F.s

It is given that net force on the toy, F = 2.0 N which displaces the toy by, s = 1.0 m.

Hence, work done on the toy, W = 2.0 N × 1.0 m = 2 J which is equal to the kinetic energy gained by the toy.

Answer:

2.0 J

Explanation:

Since the surface is frictionless, we can solve the problem by using the work-energy theorem, which states that the work done on the toy is equal to the kinetic energy gained by the toy:

W=\Delta E_k

where

W is the work done on the toy

\Delta E_k is the kinetic energy gained by the toy

The work done can be calculated as the product between the force applied on the toy and its displacement, so:

W=Fd=(2.0 N)(1.0 m)=2.0 J

Therefore, according to the work-energy theorem, the toy has gained 2.0 J of kinetic energy.

2. A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It weighs 16kg. The block has
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

3136 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

P.E = mgh.............. Equation 1

Where P.E = potential energy, m = mass of the cinder block, h = height of the platform, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: m = 16 kg, h = 20 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P.E = 16(20)(9.8)

P.E = 3136 Joules

Hence the potential energy of the cinder block is 3136 Joules

Two balls, each with a mass of 0.890 kg, exert a gravitational force of 8.06 × 10−11 n on each other. how far apart are the ball
Bond [772]
This problem involves Newton's universal law of gravitation and the equation to follow would be.

F = GM₁M₂/r²  

Given: M₁ = 0.890 Kg;  M₂ = 0.890 Kg;  F = 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N; G = 6.673 X 10⁻¹¹ N m²/Kg²

Solving for distance r = ?

r = √GM₁M₂/F

r = √(6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ N m₂/Kg²)(0.890 Kg)(0.890 Kg)/ 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N

r = 0.81 m
