In this item, there needs to be a basis as to how many significant numbers can be present in a certain figure. If the answer 327.66 m/s is to be expressed as a 3 significant figures only, the answer would have to be 328. What was done here is to simply round up the units digit of the number since the decimal place (tenths) digit has a value of greater than 4. 

The answer to this item is therefore letter B.

An object has a kinetic energy of 14 J and a mass of 17 kg , how fast is the object<br> moving?
Vlad1618 [11]
Use the formula:

E = (1/2) * m * v ^2

For unit consistency, make sure that:

E energy is in joules (J)
m mass is in kilograms (kg)
v velocity is in meters per second (m/s)
So, substituting to the equation:

14= (1/2) * (17) * v^2

By algebraic manipulation, we derive:

v = (2*14/17)^0.5

v = 1.2834 m/s

How many arrows of force would be needed in a free body diagram of a rocket taking off from the moon? Ignore any solar system ob
Sophie [7]

#1

When rocket is launched from the moon then there will be two forces on the rocket

1. Due to ejected gases the reaction force on rocket in forward direction

2. due to gravitational attraction of moon

So here we need to draw two arrow on its FBD in which first arrow is in the direction of motion of rocket which will be the reaction force on it while other arrow is opposite to its motion which is due to gravitational attraction force.

So answer would be TWO

#2

When crate is placed on the floor then in order to lift the crate upwards we always need an external force that will counter balance the normal force of crate.

Which mean if we make the normal force to be zero then crate will lift upwards and in order to make it zero we need to apply same force as that of normal force

So here the normal force is given as 150 N so we also need to apply 150 N force in order to lift it upwards


#3

If a person lift a box upwards by some force then we can say by force balance

Force applied by person + Normal force = Weight of the box

F_{app} + F_n = mg

we will plug in all values in it

F_{app} + 150 = 30 * 10

F_{app} = 300 - 150

F_{app} = 150 N

So we applied 150 N force on it

#4

In all cases we need to use force balance

like in case 3

T + T = W

2T = W

T = \frac{W}{2}

so here in 3rd case tension is half of the weight

which will be the least tension in all cases

so answer is CASE 3
