A desk was moved 12 m using 280 j of work. how much force was used to move the desk?

Oksana_A [137]

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)

The total yearly world consumption of energy is approximately 4.0 Ã— 1020 J. How much mass would have to be completely converted

BabaBlast [244]

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

$m = \dfrac{4.0 \times 10^{20} }{(3\times 10^8)^2}$

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
