Hi there

pushing on something that pushes back = action and reaction.

Gravity is non contact. Action at a distance. Hence stones wil fall if dropped.

A railroad car is pulled through the distance of 960 m by a train that did 578 kJ of work during this pull.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

<h2>602.08 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

f =   \frac{w}{d}  \\

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

f =  \frac{578000}{960}  \\  = 602.083333...

We have the final answer as

<h3>602.08 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

What determines velocity rather than speed??
Stella [2.4K]
Velocity - <span><span>the speed of something in a given direction
Speed - </span></span><span>rapidity in moving, going, traveling, proceeding, or performing; swiftness; <span>celerity
Velocity is the speed in a certain direction, whereas speed is just the rate of fastness.
Does that make sense?

How much work is required to move
Nikitich [7]
The work is path independent since we have a conservative force.

Thus W=d\cdot\frac{q\cdot U}{d^2}=\frac{3.0\cdot9.0}{0.010}=\boxed{2700 J}

Anestetic [448]
Potential energy is energy that is found in a system, grounded on the position of objects. The Coulomb (C) is the unit of charge, and the unit of electric potential is the Volt (V), which is equivalent to (J/C) or Joule per Coulomb.So the formula for this is potential = kQ / d, plugging in the given from the questions will give us:potential = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 1.602e-19C / 0.053e-9m = 27 V
