Gravitational Potential Energy = mgh (m=mass; g=gravitational force(9.8N/kg); h = height)

Ug = (70kg)(9.8N/kg)(8m) = 5488J which is C.)

Answer:

The workdone is $W = -177.275J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial Volume is $Vi = 0.160 L$

The final volume is $V_f = 0.510L$

The external pressure is $P = 5.00 \ atm$

Generally the change in volume is

$\Delta V = V_f - V_i$

Substituting values we have

$\Delta V = 0.510 -0.160$

$= 0.350L$

Generally workdone is mathematically represented as

$W = -P \Delta V$

W is negative because the working is done on the environment by the system which is indicated by volume increase

Substituting values

$W = - 5* 0.350$

$= -1.75 \ L \ \cdot atm$

Now $1 \ L \cdot atm = 101.3J$

Therefore $W = -1.75* 101.3$

$= -177.275J$

A typical jet airliner has a cruise airspeed of 900 km/h , which is its speed relative to the air through which it is flying. If

Luba_88 [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the jet airplane with respect to air, $v_{PA} = 900\ km/h$

If the wind at the airliner’s cruise altitude is blowing at 100 km/h from west to east, $v_{AG}= 100\ km/h$

(A) Let $v_{PG}$ is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from west to east,

$v_{PG}=900-100=800\ km/h$

(B) Let $v'_{PG}$ is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from east to west,

$v'_{PG}=900+100=1000\ km/h$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why does a third class lever cannot magnify force?

maw [93]

Explanation:

The third class lever cannot magnify our force because in third class lever the effort it between the load and the fulcrum. Also, in this type of lever no matter where the force is applied, it is always greater than the force of load. Hence, That type of lever cannot magnify our force.

A traffic accident detective measures the skid marks left by a car, 825kg. He determines that the distance between the point tha

deff fn [24]

Doing a force balance on the car:
ma = Fr
ma = μmg
a = μg
a = 0.3(9.81)
a = 29.43 m/s2

Using the formula:
2ax = v2
2(29.43)(34) = v2
v = 44.74 m/s = 161.05 km/h

The car was going 44.74 m/s or 161.05 kph when the brakes were applied.
