Thing 1 and Thing 2 push with a force of 2000 N to move a rather small 500 kg elephant 30 m across the kitchen floor. How much w

ork did they do?
Physics
1 answer:
Amanda [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

60000 J

Explanation:

Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is

W=Fd

where

F = 2000 N is the force applied

d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(2000 N)(30 m)=60,000 J

4 facts about relative dating?
sasho [114]
Relative dating is used to arrange geological events….

Relative dating puts geologic events in chronological order without requiring that a specific numerical age be assigned to each event….

Relative Dating uses the half life of isotopes to get the exact age of a rock or mineral.

A river flows due south with a speed of 2.0 m/s. You steer a motorboat across the river; your velocity relative to the water is
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a) 25.5°(south of east)

b) 119 s

c) 238 m

Explanation:

solution:

we have river speed v_{r}=2 m/s

velocity of motorboat relative to water is v_{m/r}=4.2 m/s

so speed will be:

a) v_{m}=v_{r}+v_{m/r}

solving graphically

v_{m}=\sqrt{v^2_{r}+v^2_{m/r}}

     =4.7 m/s

Ф=tan^{-1} (\frac{v_{r}}{v_{m/r}} )

  =25.5°(south of east)

b) time to cross the river: t=\frac{w}{v_{m/r}}=\frac{500}{4.2}=119 s

c) d=v_{r}t=(2)(119)=238 m

We can approach this in another way.
We know that sin(∅) = height / hypotenuse.

Thus, for x, height is 1 and hypotenuse is 3. Using Pythagoras theorem,
3² = 1² + b²
b = √8
cos(x) = b/hypotenuse
cos(x) = √8 / 3

Now, lets consider y:
sec(y) = 1 / cos(y) = 1 / base / hypotenuse = hypotenuse / base
The hypotenuse is 25 and the base is 24. We again apply Pythagoras theorem to find the third side, which works out to be:
height = 7
sin(y) = height / hypotenuse
sin(y) = 7/25

Now, sin(x + y) =
sin(x)cos(y) + sin(y)cos(x)
= (1/3)(24/25) + (√8 / 3)(7/25)
= 8/25 + 7√8/75
= (24 + 14√2) / 75

A cue ball, moving with 9.0 N·s of momentum strikes the nine-ball at rest. The nine-ball moves off with 2.0 N·s in the original
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

P = 7.28 N.s

Explanation:

given,

initial momentum of cue ball in x- direction,P₁ = 9 N.s

momentum of nine ball in  x-  direction, P₂ = 2 N.s

momentum in perpendicular direction i.e. y - direction,P'₂ = 2 N.s

momentum of the cue after collision = ?

using conservation of momentum

in x- direction

P₁ + p = x  + P₂

p is the initial momentum of the nine balls which is equal to zero.

9 + 0  = x  + 2

x = 7 N.s

momentum in x-direction.

equating along y-direction

P'₁ + p = y + P'₂

0 + 0 = y + 2

y = -2 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to resultant of the momentum .

P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}

P = \sqrt{7^2+(-2)^2}

      P = 7.28 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to P = 7.28 N.s

A charge Q is to be divided into two parts, labeled 'q' and 'Q-q? What is the relationship of q to Q if, at any given distance,
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The two charges are q and Q - q. Let the distance between them is r

Use the formula for coulomb's law for the force between the two charges

F = \frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

So, the force between the charges q and Q - q is given by

F = \frac{K\left ( Q-q \right )q}}{r^{2}}

For maxima and minima, differentiate the force with respect to q.

\frac{dF}{dq} = \frac{k}{r^{2}}\times \left ( Q - 2q \right )

For maxima and minima, the value of dF/dq = 0

So, we get

q = Q /2

Now \frac{d^{2}F}{dq^{2}} = \frac{-2k}{r^{2}}

the double derivate is negative, so the force is maxima when q = Q / 2 .
