A force (5ỉ - ;)N moves an object from the point P (1,3) m to the point Q (3, 8) m.
natita [175]

Answer:

b) 5 J

Explanation:

Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)

To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:

Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j

The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:

Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J

A stone is launched straight up by a slingshot. Its initial speed is 19.6 m/s, and the stone is 1.50 m above the ground when lau
arlik [135]

Answer: a) 19.21m b) 3.92secs

Explanation:

a) Maximum height reached by the object is the height reached by an object before falling freely under gravity.

Maximum height = U²/2g

U is the initial velocity = 19.6m/s

g is acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²

Maximum Height = 19.6²/2(10)

H = 19.21m

b) The time elapsed before the stone hits the ground is the time of flight T= 2U/g

T= 2(19.6)/10

T = 39.2/10

Time elapsed is 3.92secs

Alja [10]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

1) The human arm: This is a type of simple machine called "Lever". In this type of machine, the elbow acts as the fulcrum, the palm serves as the load because that's where we place the load we want to carry. While the inner part of the arm which is the inner part of the elbow represents the effort because that is the joint we mover when making use of our arms.

2) Pulleys: An example of this in the human body is the knee cap where the direction of an applied force is changed. Thus means as it is in motion, it alters the direction for which the quadriceps tendon pulls on the tibia.

3) wheel and axle: An example of this in the human body is the lateral rotation of the shoulder joint medial. The humerus which is the bone between the shoulder and elbow will act as the axle while the rotator will be the will because when it is rotated a little bit, the humerus will move along with it.

What is your mass in kilograms?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Take whatever you weigh in pounds and divide by 2.205.

Explanation:

Because weight is a measure of the force you exert on the earth, with some simple manipulation of Newton's second law we can get your mass in kilograms. 2.205 is just a nice constant that does that for you, but the more in-depth version is that

F = ma

The equation for weight is thus

W = mg, where W is your weight in pounds, m is your mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.80 m/s^2)

Thus, your mass in kilograms is m = W / g.
