To calculate the gravitational force acting on an object given the mass and the acceleration due to gravity, use the following formula.
Fg = m • g
Fg = 1.3 kg • 9.8 m/s^2
Fg = 12.74 N or about 12.7 N.
The solution is C. 12.7 N.
Answer:
0.1 m
Explanation:
F = Force exerted on spring = 3 N
k = Spring constant = 60 N/m
x = Displacement of the block
As the energy of the system is conserved we have




The position of the block is 0.1 from the initial position.
Answer:True. The number of calories in a food is a measure of how much potential energy that food possesses.
Explanation:
Answer:
T1 = 130N, T2 = 370N
Explanation:
In order for the system to be at rest, the sum of all forces must be zero and the torque around a point on the beam must be zero.
1. forces:
Let tension in rope 1 be T1 and in rope 2 be T2:
ma = T1 + T2 - 100N - 400N = 0
(1) T1 + T2 = 500N
2. torque around the center point of the beam:
τ = r x F = 5*T1 + 3*400N - 5*T2 = 0
(2) T1 - T2 = -240N
Solving both equations:
T1 = 130N
T2 = 370N
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of water = 25 kg
Temperature = 23°C
Weight of mass = 32 kg
Distance = 5 m
(a). We need to calculate the amount of work done on the water
Using formula of work done



The amount of work done on the water is 1568 J.
(b). We need to calculate the internal-energy change of the water
Using formula of internal energy
The change in internal energy of the water equal to the amount of the work done on the water.


The change in internal energy is 1568 J.
(c). We need to calculate the final temperature of the water
Using formula of the change internal energy





The final temperature of the water is 23.01°C.
(d). The amount of heat removed from the water to return it to it initial temperature is the change in internal energy.
The amount of heat is 1568 J.
Hence, This is the required solution.
