Answer:

The force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, D. 902.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the rock ejected by the volcano, m = 95 kg

The acceleration of the ejected rock, a 9.5 m/s²

The force acting on an object is defined as the product of the mass and its acceleration. It is given by the relation,

                                 F = m x a

                                    = 95 x 9.5

                                    = 902.5 N

Hence, the force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, F = 902.5 N

A secret agent is locked in a room. He pushes against the door but cannot open it. Finally, he falls to the floor exhausted. Has
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: There is not work done at the door because the door did not move.

Explanation:  Work is defined as the movement done by a force.

So if you move to apply a force F in an object and you move it a distance D, the work applied on the object is  

W = F*D

In this case, the secret agent pushes against the door, so there is a force, but the agent does not move the door, so D = 0, so there is no motion of the door, which implies that there is no work done at the door.

In the diagram shown, satellite S moves in a circular orbit around the Earth (E) in a counterclockwise direction.
zubka84 [21]

The characteristics of the velocity vector used to find the results for the direction of acceleration and velocity are:

  • Acceleration is towards the center of the circle
  • The velocity is tangent to the circle counterclockwise.

Newton's Second Law establishes a relationship between force, mass and acceleration of bodies.

<h3>Centripetal acceleration. </h3>

In the case of circular motion there is a constant change in the direction of the velocity vector, even when its module remains constant, this change in direction points towards the center of the circle, so that the module is constant.

They indicate that the satellite is moving counterclockwise, therefore the speed must go to the left (counterclockwise) tangential to the circle.

In conclusion using the characteristics of the velocity vector we can find the results for the direction of acceleration and velocity are:

  • Acceleration is towards the center of the circle
  • The velocity is tangent to the circle counterclockwise.
