If someone ways 600 newtons and the shoes have an area of 300cm squared, what pressure does he exert on the ground?

1 answer:

4 0

Pressure = Force / Area

Put your data in front of yourself.

Force = 600 Newtons
Area = 300 cm^2

Firstly you need to convert the area into m^2 and you do this by diving 300 with 10000.

Now you use the formula:-
Pressure = 600/ 0.03
Which comes out to be 20,000 Pa.

Hope this helps!

A 0.25 kg ball is suspended from a light 0.65 m string as shown. The string makes an angle of 31° with the vertical. Let U = 0 w

steposvetlana [31]

Explanation:

a) The height of the ball h with respect to the reference line is

$h = L - L\cos{31°} = L(1 - \cos{31°})$

so its initial gravitational potential energy $U_0$ is

$U = mgh = mgL(1 - \cos{31°})$

$\:\:\:\:\:=(0.25\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(0.65\:\text{m})(1 - \cos{31})$

$\:\:\:\:\:=0.23\:\text{J}$

b) To find the speed of the ball at the reference point, let's use the conservation law of energy:

$\Delta{K} + \Delta{U} = 0 \Rightarrow K_0 + U_0 = K + U$

We know that the initial kinetic energy $K_0,$ as well as its final gravitational potential energy $U$ are zero so we can write the conservation law as

$mgL(1 - \cos{31°}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Note that the mass gets cancelled out and then we solve for the velocity v as

$v = \sqrt{2gL(1 - \cos{31°})}$

$\:\:\:\:\:= \sqrt{2(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(0.65\:\text{m})(1 - \cos{31°})}$

$\:\:\:\:\:= 1.3\:\text{m/s}$

A glass dropped on the floor is more likely to break if the floor is concrete

garik1379 [7]

False , (No) because if its a regular floor it will more likely break because of the flat surface but if it is concrete then it has more of a chance because it has edges and dents which will help prevent it from breaking.

What type of energy results from the burning of wood or gasoline?

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Chemical energy

Explanation:

Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules. Batteries, biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and coal are examples of chemical energy. Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy when people burn wood in a fireplace or burn gasoline in a car's engine.
