Steam powered boats run from an engine, using power, gears, and cranks to function.
Sailboats use no engine and rely on winds to move and change the direction of the boat.
Let F = required force, N
Given:
d = 12 m, distance
W = 280 J, work done
By definition,
W = F*d,
therefore
(F N)*(12 m) = (280 J)
F = 280/12 = 23.33 N
Answer: The force is 23.3 N (nearest tenth)
Answer:
m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
Explanation:
Given that:
The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J
The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:
E = mc²
where;
c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)
4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
