Work is Force multiplied by distance: work = Fd

work = mgh

work = (5.0 kg)(9.8 m/s)(3.5 m)

work = 171.5 joules or for two sigfigs, 170 joules

I believe it would be 172 J (or 1.72 · 10² J)

A car has a mass of 1600 kg. It is stuck in the snow and is being pulled out by a cable that applies a force of 7560 N due north
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Acceleration of the car will be a=0.1375m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given mass of the ball m = 1600 kg

Force in north direction F= 7560 N

Resistance force which opposes the movement of car F_R=7340N

So net force on the car F_{net}=F-F_R=7560-7340=220N

According to second law of motion we know that F=ma

So 220=1600\times a

a=0.1375m/sec^2

A migrating robin flies due north with a speed of 12 m/s relative to the air. The air moves due east with a speed of 6.3 m/s rel
Sonja [21]

consider east-west direction along X-axis  and north-south direction along Y-axis

V_{ra} = velocity of migrating robin relative to air = 12 j m/s

(where "j" is unit vector in Y-direction)

V_{ag} = velocity of air relative to ground = 6.3 i m/s

(where "i" is unit vector in X-direction)

V_{rg} = velocity of migrating robin relative to ground = ?

using the equation

V_{rg} = V_{ra} + V_{ag}

V_{rg} = 12 j + 6.3 i

V_{rg} = 6.3 i + 12 j

magnitude : sqrt((6.3)² + (12)²) = 13.6 m/s

direction : tan⁻¹(12/6.3) = 62.3 deg north of east

A ski jumper travels down a slope and
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

304.86 metres

Explanation:

The x and y cordinates are dcos\theta and dsin\theta respectively

The horizontal distance travelled, x=v_{ox}t=dcos\theta

Making t the subject, t=\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}}

Since y=0.5gt^2=dsin\theta, we substitute t with the above and obtain

0.5g(\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}})^2=dsin\theta

Making d the subject we obtain

d=\frac{2v_{ox}^2sin\theta}{gcos^2\theta}

d=\frac{2*30^2sin48}{9.8cos^248}

d=304.8584

d=304.86m

Why wil an ice cube melt if it is compressed even if it remains at the same temp
Gnoma [55]
No, it will only melt if the temperature is lowered. If you compress it, it will change the shape, but it will not change the state it is in (i.e. solid).
