A) Work energy relation;
Work =ΔKE ; work done = Force × distance, while, Kinetic energy = 1/2 MV²
F.s = 1/2mv²
F× 4×10^-2 = 1/2 × 5 ×10^-3 × (600)²
F = 900/0.04
= 22500 N
Therefore, force is 22500 N

b) From newton's second law of motion;
F = Ma
Thus; a = F/m
= 22500/(5×10^-3)
= 4,500,000 m/s²
But v = u-at
0 = 600- 4500,000 t
t = 1.33 × 10^-4 seconds

Describe the shape of a convex lens and explain what it does to light.

alexira [117]

Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.

Question 2 (10 points)

kenny6666 [7]

The force required to slow the truck was -5020 N

Explanation:

First of all, we find the acceleration of the truck, which is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the truck in this problem,

v = 11.5 m/s

u = 21.9 m/s

t = 2.88 s

So the acceleration is

$a=\frac{11.5-21.9}{2.88}=-3.6 m/s^2$

where the negative sign means that this is a deceleration.

Now we can find the force exerted on the truck, which is given by Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

where

m = 1390 kg is the mass of the truck

$a=-3.6 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

And substituting,

$F=(1390)(-3.6)=-5004 N$

So the closest answer among the option is -5020 N.

Why are the temperatures on each of the other terrestrial planets more extreme than earth?

netineya [11]

Other terrestrial planets have more extreme temperatures mainly because of their atmospheres
Explanation:
for example the atmosphere of Venus is composed mainly of carbon dioxide, this carbon dioxide traps the heat or energy from the sun and makes the planet have higher temperatures. where on mars the atmosphere is very thin so it takes in lots of heat and doesn't keep it in very well so it gets very hot and very cold

Calculate the force between two objects that have masses of 70 Kilograms and 2,000 kilograms separated by a distance of 1 meter

Hunter-Best [27]

9.3 x 10⁻⁶N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass 1 = 70kg

Mass 2 = 2000kg

distance = 1m

Unknown:

force between them =

Solution:

The force between the two masses will be a gravitational force of attraction.

F = $\frac{G m_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

G is universal gravitation constant = 6.67430×10−¹¹ N⋅m²/kg²

r is the distance between the two masses

Substituting the parameters:

F = $\frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 70 x 2000}{1^{2} }$ = 9.3 x 10⁻⁶N

If a force of 2n does work at the rate of -2sqrt2 w on an object moving iwth a speed of 2m/s the ale between the fore and teh ve

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The value of the angle theta = 135degree, which is option c.

Explanation :

These are the options given in the question

a) 45 degrees

b)120 degrees

c)135 degrees

d)150 degrees

e) it is impossible to deliver a negative power.

The concept of work done on an object is applied here.

work = Fd

F = ma

work = mad

Work is a form of energy transferred by an object after the application of a force that act on the object. A step by step explanation is as attached below.
