Answer:

option D

Explanation:

In this case, we have a helicopter lifting a car. The car has a mass of 1500 kg and we want to know the force that the car is feeling due to gravity.

In this case, as the car is being lifted by the helicopter, we can say that the force of the helicopter is equivalent to the force of gravity that the car is feeling.

Using the second law of Newton we have:

F = m.a

In this case, the force that gravity exerts, is the weight and is calculated with the same expression but using the gravity acceleration of Earth whic is 9.81 m/s², therefore:

W = m.g

Now that we have mass and gravity, we can calculate the force of gravity so:

W = 1500 * 9.81

W = 14,715 N

This is close to the value of option D, so the answer would be that.

<span>Force of the helicopter is equivalent to weight for this case. </span>Weight is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object and the acceleration. For this case, the acceleration would be the acceleration due to gravity which is equal to 9.81 m/s^2. We calculate as follows:<span>

W = mg 
<span>W = 1500 kg ( 9.81 m/s^2 )</span></span>

<span><span>W = 14715 N </span></span>

What happens to temperature and kinetic energy of particles during a change of state
Wittaler [7]
When a substance is changing state, its temperature remains constant. This is because energy is used to increase/decrease kinetic energy of the molecules of the substance, increasing/decreasing the inter-molecular distance and overcoming the energy bonds present between the molecules. Therefore, no energy is used to raise the temperature of the substance and therefore it remains constant

Misha Larkins [42]
Simple,

take a look at your periodic table, if you have it labeled look at the Halogen

Group, it includes: Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine.

Now, a period on the periodic table is read from left to right, and goes

down the rows of the periodic table.

Go to Period 5, go all the way to the Halogens, what is there?

When comparing Potassium (K) and Calcium (Ca) you must compare?
Rom4ik [11]
Vitamin K and potassium are essential micronutrients the body needs to develop and function properly. The two share some things in common, but they’re not the same.

Each has a unique set of properties and purposes. Unlike vitamin K, potassium is not a vitamin. Rather, it’s a mineral.

On the periodic table, the chemical symbol for potassium is the letter K. Thus, people sometimes confuse potassium with vitamin K.

This article highlights some of the main similarities and differences between vitamin K and potassium.
