Answer:

Work done by the gravity, W = 102 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the backpack, m = 8 kg

It is dropped from the height of, h = 1.3 m

We have to find the work done by the gravity as the back pack fall. Work done by the gravity is given by the product of force and distance covered by an object. Mathematically, it is given by :

W = F × d

∵ F = m g

⇒ W = mg h

$W=8\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m$

W = 101.92 Joules

W = 102 Joules

So, the work done by the gravity is 102 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the gravitational force between a 45 kg person, and the Earth at 5.98 x 1024 kg, with a distance of

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

C. 441 N

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects can by calculated by the formula

= G m₁m₂ / r² , m₁ and m₂ are masses at distance r

= ( 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 45 x 5.98 x 10²⁴) / ( 6.38 x 10⁶ )²

= 44.09 x 10

= 440.9 N

= 441 N .

10. Almost three-quarters of household energy use is due to the following:

Arturiano [62]

Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.
