Answer:

   a = 1,375 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law where the force applied by the astronaut is F = 48.1, the body weight is W = 41.5 N and the body mass is m = 4.80 kg

              F - W = m a

              a = (F -W) / m

let's calculate

              a = (48.1 - 41.5) / 4.80

              a = 1,375 m / s²

this acceleration is directed upwards

Nancy is sailing her boat toward Sam's boat at 5
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5 km/hr

Explanation:

The question says that Nora is few meters behind Nancy and is still with respect to her that means the relative velocity between Nora and Nancy is zero

Vrel = 5 - Vnora= 0 ⇒ Vnora = 5km/hr

Pictorially we can represent the given condition as:

Nora-------few meters------Nancy -----------------    Sam

5km/hr                                         5km/hr →

Hence,  Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5km/hr.

Sav [38]

Answer:

388.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight  = 70N

Height  = 5.55m

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy at the top of the ladder  = ?

Solution:

The gravitational potential energy is the energy due to the position of the body.

  Gravitational potential energy  = Weight x height

So;

 Gravitational potential energy  = 70 x 5.55 = 388.5J
