A 40 kg box has a surface area of 0.2 m2, determine its pressure.

Physics
1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

P = 1960 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure is computed as the force acting upon a surface divided by the area of the surface

P=\frac{F}{A}

The box has 40 kg, it presses on its own surface when placed over a table or any flat area. The acting force is its weight.

F = W = m.g = 40 kg \ 9.8m/sec^2 = 392 N

The pressure is:

P=\frac{392N}{0.2m^2}=1960 \ Pa

A 20-kg boy slides down a smooth, snow-covered hill on a plastic disk. The hill is at a 10° angle to the horizontal, and the slo
zvonat [6]

Answer:

13 m/s

Explanation:

I assume we are ignoring friction.

The boy's PE will all be converted to KE at the bottom of the hill.

to find PE = mgh   we need to know h

   h = 50 sin 10 = 8.68 meters

     then:    PE = 20 * 9.81 * 8.68 =<u> 1703.49</u> j

KE = 1/2 m v^2 = <u>1703 .49</u>

            v = 13 m/s

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

I hope this helps and I'm not to late

A way the balls behave the same way is by bouncing about 1 time after throwing the balls up. A way the balls act differently is the blue ball is bouncier than all the balls, the red ball bounces about 2 times before stopping, and the green ball doesn’t really bounce except for one time.
