Mechanical Energy: 10.81 J given that g = 9.81 \; \text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its kinetic and potential energy.

Kinetic Energy of this object:

\text{KE} = \dfrac{1}{2} \; m \cdot v^{2} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 2 \times 1 = 1 \; \text{J}

Gravitational Potential Energy of this object:

g = 9.81 \; \text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}.

\text{PE} = m \cdot g \cdot h = 2 \times 9.81 \times \dfrac{1}{2} = 9.81 \; \text{J}.

You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceilin
Ivan

Answer: The elevator must be accelerating.

Explanation:

As the tension force is opposing to the the force of gravity on the load which is hung vertically, and the tension force can adopt any value in order to comply with Newton's 2nd law, if the tension force is less than the force due to gravity, this means that all system is not in equilibrium, so it must be accelerating.

If we assume that the downward is the positive direction, we can write:

mg - T = ma

If T = 0.9 mg, ⇒ mg (1-0.9) =0.1 mg = m a ⇒a = 0.1 g , in downward direction.

What effect does Earth’s spherical shape have on the amount of sunlight that reaches the equator?
vaieri [72.5K]

A

Explanation:

The earth is spherical. So it's middle part is bulgjng outside. So more sunlight will be incident on the latitude near the equator. This will heat the air and it will rise up. This will cause high pressure difference and polar disturbances.

I hope this satisfies you. I hope u will follow me and make this the brainliest answer.

What is the net force experienced by the rope? Include both the magnitude and direction
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

All the physical world objects that comers in the contact to exert the force to each other. The contact forces are different from their names and what type of force they exert.

Explanation:

The cables and the ropes are the useful objects that exert the forces that can efficiently transfer the force from a significant distance.

It is noted that tension is a type of force that the rope can not simply push it away effectively. When push happened with rope, the rope goes to slack and lose all the tension that pulls at the first place. Tension only pull objects.

A tug boat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5.00•10*3 N and causes the ship to move through a harbor. How mu
Murljashka [212]

The work done on the ship is 1.5\cdot 10^7 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

F=5.00\cdot 10^3 N (force acting on the ship)

d = 3.00 km = 3000 m (displacement of the ship)

\theta=0^{\circ} (because the force is horizontal, and the displacement is horizontal as well)

Therefore, the work done on the ship is

W=(5.00\cdot 10^3)(3000)(cos 0^{\circ})=1.5\cdot 10^7 J
