Carlos uses a rope to pull his car 30 m to a parking lot because it ran out of gas. If Carlos exerts 2,000 N of force to pull th

e rope, and the rope is at an angle of 15° to the road, how much work did he do? Round your answer to two significant figures.

Answer: 5.8\cdot 10^4 J

Explanation:

The work done by Carlos is given by:

W=Fdcos\theta

where

F is the force exerted by Carlos

d is the distance through which the car has been pulled

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the motion of the car

In this problem, F=2000 N, d=30 m, \theta=15^{\circ}. By substituting these numbers into the formula, we find

W=(2,000 N)(30 m)(cos 15^{\circ})=57,956 J=5.8\cdot 10^4 J

Gauss’ law: a. Relates the surface charge density to the electric field.b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surf
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the flux of certain fields through a closed surface is proportional to the magnitude of the sources of that field within the same surface. The electric flux expresses the measure of the electric field that crosses a certain surface. Therefore, the electric field on a closed surface is proportional to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

The tow spring on a car has a spring constant of 3,086 N / m and is initially stretched 18.00 cm by a 100.0 kg college student o
sdas [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the skateboard is 0.774 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The spring constant of the spring, k = 3086 N/m

The spring is stretched 18 cm or 0.18 m

Mass of the student, m = 100 kg

Potential energy of the spring, P_f=20\ J

To find,

The velocity of the car.

Solution,

It is a case of conservation of energy. The total energy of the system remains conserved. So,

P_i=K_f+P_f

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+20

\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3086\times (0.18)^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+20

50-20=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

30=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{60}{100}}

v = 0.774 m/s

So, the velocity of the skateboard is 0.774 m/s.
