Answer:

No work was done.

W = 0

Explanation:

Work is said to be done whenever a force of one newton moves a body of one kilogram through a distance of one meter. Meaning the applied force has to move the body from a point of rest through certain distance.

Work = force × distance

So, in the case of this question, we only have the force been applied, but no distance was covered. Hence, no work was done.

W = 3000× 0 meter

W = 0

a football player kicks a ball with a mass of 0.42kg. The average acceleration of the football was 14.8 m/s2. How much force did

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

6.216 N

Explanation:

As for Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

where F= the acting force

m=subjected mass

a= the acceleration

applying F=ma to the football

F=m*a

=0.42*14.8

=6.216 N

6.216 N of a force is supplied to the ball

The iron nail’s mass is 16 grams and its temperature drops 650 C when dropped into the water. How much heat energy did the iron

Mice21 [21]

The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J

Explanation:

The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is its change in temperature

For the iron nail in this problem, we have:

m = 16 g

$C=0.450 J/g^{\circ}C$

$\Delta T = -650^{\circ}C$

So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

$Q=(16)(0.450)(-650)=-4680 J$

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.

A 0.810 kg ball falls 2.5m. How much work does the force of gravity do on the ball?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

W = 19.845 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as W = Fdcos $\theta$ , where F is the force exerted and d is the distance. Because the direction the ball is falling is the same direction as the force itself, $\theta$ = 0 deg, and since cos(0) = 1, this equation is equivalent to W = Fd. In this case, the force exerted is the weight force, which is equivalent to m * g. Substituting you get:
