Use P=F/a
whereas P= 350000 and a=.9m2
substitute into the formula we get
350000=f/.9m2 multiply .9 on both sides as LHS=RHS WE get 315000 Newtons as the answer

A 12-kg projectile is launched with an initial vertical speed of 20 m/s. It rises to a maximum height of 18 m above the launch p
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Change in mechanical energy, \Delta E=283.2\ J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the projectile, m = 12 kg

Speed of the projectile, v = 20 m/s

Maximum height, h = 18 m

Initially, the projectile have only kinetic energy. it is given by :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 12\ kg\times (20\ m/s)^2

K = 2400 J

Finally, it have only potential energy. it is given by :

P = mgh

P=12\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 18\ m

P =2116.8 J

The change in mechanical energy is given by :

\Delta E=K-P

\Delta E=2400-2116.8

\Delta E=283.2\ J

So, the change in mechanical energy is 283.2 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

PLEASE HELP! Explain how energy travels outward from the core and is emitted from the Sun. Include what happens in each layer of
xxMikexx [17]
Fusion occurs in the Sun's core, releasing energy that is transferred outward. Once in the radiative zone, gamma rays are transferred by radiation. They are converted to other types of photons, which move into the convective zone, where they are transferred by convection. Finally, energy is emitted from the photosphere.

You are writing a report about space travel. Where would be the best place to find information? (2 points)
Harrizon [31]

Answer: Contact the National Aeronautics and Space Association

Explanation:

The National Aeronautics and Space Association is an independent organization in US which aims to enable a safe, secure, efficient space journey and launch of new satellites, spacecraft beyond the earth's orbit. It can give better information for the space travel already conducted by the astronauts. Thus will help in writing the report as it is the best place to find the information.
