The diameter of Earth (to two significant figures) is 7900 miles. Calculate its circumference.

Physics
1 answer:
Bess [88]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The circumference of the Earth is 24818.58 miles

Explanation:

Analysis conceptual : The formula of the circumference is the following:

L= π*D Formula (1)

Where:

L : is the length of the circumference in miles (mi)

π : is the constant

D : is the diameter of the circumference in miles (mi)

Known data

π = 3.1416

D= 7900 miles:  Diameter of the Earth

Problem development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate the circumference of the Earth  (L):

L= π*7900 miles

L= 24818.58 miles

The change of motion of a body is proportional to the applied force, and it takes place in the direction of a straight line in w
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion  

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the change in velocity of a body is directly proportional to the force applied on it. Velocity is a vector quantity. It measures the magnitude of the speed as well as its direction.

F = m a

where, F is the applied force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

It can also be expressed as:

F = \frac{dp}{dt}

where, p = mv ( momentum)

A woman carries a 10kg box up a set of 5m high stairs and then down a 12m long hallway. How much work does she do on the box?
nika2105 [10]

Answer: 1666J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of box (m) = 10kg

Total distance covered by box (h)

= (5m + 12m)

= 17m

work done on the box = ?

Work is done when force is applied on an object over a distance. Hence, the magnitude of work done on the box depends on its mass (m), distance covered (h), and acceleration due to gravity (g)

(g has a value of 9.8m/s²

i.e Work = mgh

Work = 10kg x 9.8m/s² x 17m

Work = 1666J

Thus, 1666 joules of work was done by the woman on the box.
