Answer

given,

mass of the astronaut = 66 kg

height of the lift = 15 m

acceleration = g/11 = 0.89 m/s²

a) the work done by helicopter

W = F× h

    = m (a+g)h

    = 66 × (9.8+0.89)15

  W =10583.1 J

b) work done by the gravity

W= mgh

W = - 66 × 9.8 × 15

W = -9702 J

c) Δ KE = net work done

  Δ KE = 10583.1 - 9702

  Δ KE = 881.1 J

d) speed

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = 881.1

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times 881.1}{66}}

v =5.17 m/s

xxMikexx [17]

From the front door to his current position, Aaron's Distance is 4m. and his Displacement is 4m.

Distance is a measure of how far apart two objects or locations are using numbers. The distance can refer to a physical length in physics or to an estimate based on other factors in common usage. Sometimes, the symbol |AB| is used to represent the distance between two points.

A displacement is a vector in geometry and mechanics that have a length equal to the shortest distance between a point P's initial and final positions.

Given,

Length of path  = 4m

Distance  =?

Displacement  =?

Distance is the length of the path and it has magnitude but no direction. The distance covered is 4m Displacement is the length of the path and it has magnitude and direction. Displacement is 4m towards the mailbox.

A sphere of radius r = 5cm carries a uniform volume charge density rho = 400 nC/m^3. Q. What is the total charge Q of the sphere
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The total charge Q of the sphere is 2.094\times10^{-10}\ C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 5 cm

Charge density J= 400\ nC/m^3

We need to calculate the total charge Q of the sphere

Using formula of charge

q=\rho V

Where, \rho = charge density

V = volume

Put the value into the formula

q=\rho\times(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3)

Put the value into the formula

q=\dfrac{4}{3}\times\pi\times400\times10^{-9}\times(5\times10^{-2})^3

q=2.094\times10^{-10}\ C

Hence, The total charge Q of the sphere is 2.094\times10^{-10}\ C.
