The answer for the following question is explained below.

Therefore the work done is 130 kilo Joules.

Explanation:

Work:

A force causing the movement or displacement of an object.

Given:

mass of the person (m) = 65 kg

height of the cliff (h) = 2000 m

To calculate:

work done (W)

We know;

According to the formula:

W = m × g × h

Where;

m represents mass of the person

g represents the acceleration due to gravity

where the value of g is;

g = 10 m/ s²

h represents the height of the cliff

From the above formula;

W = 65 × 10 × 2000

W = 130,000 J

W = 130 Kilo Joules

Therefore the work done is 130 kilo Joules.

What velocity must a 1210 kg car have in order to have the same momentum as a pickup truck

Mariulka [41]

Answer: 46.5 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass(m) × velocity (v)

momentum of car = momentum of truck

1210 × v = 2250 × 25

v = 46.5 m/s

Physical Science - 02.05 - Question #3

Reika [66]

Answer:

1. They should not trust this study. 2. Pseudoscience.

Explanation:

Because they drank the water and after 24 hours, they said that it was gone. Head aches go away sooner than that. Another reason is that some people could have lied about having a headache just so they could have the water or their headache could have gone away before they drank the water.

The wire needs to be sauderwired to be connected back into place to get energy into column so it came function properly again!

Two objects, Object A and Object B, need to be identified. Object A's index of refraction is determined to be 1.77, and Object B

Slav-nsk [51]

The correct answer is

C. Light can pass through Object B faster than it can pass through Object A.

In fact, the index of refraction of a material is defined as:

$n=\frac{c}{v}$

where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the speed of light in the material. Rearranging the equation, we can write the speed of light in the material as:

$v=\frac{c}{n}$

So we that, the smaller the refractive index n, the greater the speed of light in the material, v. In this problem, object B has lower refractive index than object A, so light travels faster in object B.
