Answer:

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, as we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases and as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases both are the true statement.

While a roofer is working on a roof that slants at 37.0 ∘∘ above the horizontal, he accidentally nudges his 92.0 NN toolbox, cau

eduard

Answer:

The speed is $v =8.17 m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angle of slant is $\theta = 37.0^o$

The weight of the toolbox is $W_t = 92.0N$

The mass of the toolbox is $m = \frac{92}{9.8} = 9.286kg$

The start point is $d = 4.25m$ from lower edge of roof

The kinetic frictional force is $F_f = 22.0N$

Generally the net work done on this tool box can be mathematically represented as

$Net \ work done = Workdone \ due \ to \ Weight + Workdone \ due \ to \ Friction$

The workdone due to weigh is = $mgsin \theta * d$

The workdone due to friction is = $F_f \ cos\theta * d$

Substituting this into the equation for net workdone

$W_{net} = mgsin\theta * d + F_f \ cos \theta *d$

Substituting values

$W_{net} = 92 * sin (37) * 4.25 + 22 cos (37) * 4.25$

$= 309.98 J$

According to work energy theorem

$W_{net} = \Delta Kinetic \ Energy$

$W_{net} = \frac{1}{2} m (v - u)^2$

From the question we are told that it started from rest so u = 0 m/s

$W_{net} = \frac{1}{2} * m v^2$

Making v the subject

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 W_{net}}{m} }$

Substituting value

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 309.98}{9.286} }$

$v =8.17 m/s$

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

Explanation:

We could use conversation of energy. Total distance the stone will cover will be

$h=\frac{1}{2} g t^{2}$

the Final velocity will be

$v=gt\\v=g\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }\\ v=\sqrt{2gh}$

Two horses, Thunder and Misty, are accelerating a wagon 1.3 m/s2. The force of friction is 75 N. Thunder is pulling with a force

just olya [345]

Answer:

1327 kg

Explanation:

So the net force exerted on the wagon would be the sum of forces from 2 horses subtracted by friction force

$F = 1000 + 800 - 75 = 1725 N$

This force results in an acceleration of a = 1.3 m/s2. We can use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the mass of the wagon

$F = ma$

$m = F / a = 1725 / 1.3 \approx 1327 kg$

Habitat fragmentation is a cost of urban development.

Option: A

Explanation:

Though from the view point or perspective of up gradation and development urban development is much needed but in cost of habitat fragmentation which feels very bitter. As habitat fragmentation leads to the loss of habitat, disruption of ecological cycle and environmental equilibrium.

Actually in the name of urban development we the human use our bread giver environment in a wrong way which causes natural disasters in long run. Animals become endangered , vulnerable and extinct with passage of time. Because they forced to enter into human settlements.
