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

or

W = 102 Joules

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

How much work is done to increase the speed of a 1.0 kg toy car by 5.0 m/s?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

We need to find the work done to increase the speed of a 1 kg toy car by 5 m/s.

We know that, the work done is equal to the kinetic energy of an object i.e.

W=\Delta K\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 5^2\\W=12.5\ J

So, 12.5 J of work is done to increase the speed of a 1.0 kg toy car by 5.0 m/s.

If we double the frequency of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion, which of the following statements about that system ar
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

a. The angular frequency is doubled.

e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Explanation:

Angular frequency is given as;

ω = 2πf

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{(2f_1)} \\\\\omega _1 = \frac{\omega _2}{2}\\\\\omega _2 = 2\omega _1

Thus, the angular frequency will be doubled.

Amplitude in simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement.

Frequency is related to period in simple harmonic motion as given in the equation below;

f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f_1T_1= f_2T_2\\\\T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled;

T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{2f_1} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_1}{2}

Thus, the period will be reduced to one-half of what it was.

A girl is sitting in a sled sliding horizontally along some snow (there is friction present).
Over [174]

Answer:

159 N

Explanation:

The force of friction, Fr is a product of coefficient of feiction and the normal force. Therefore, Fr=uN where N is the normal force and u is coefficient of friction. Here, we have two coefficients of friction but since it is sliding, then we use coefficient of kinetic energy. Substituting 0.25 for u and 636 N for N then

Fr=0.25*636=159 N

Therefore, the force of friction is equivalent to 159 N

An object has a mass of 2000kg what is its weight on earth
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

19600 N

Explanation:

weight = mass x gravity

We know that gravity = 9.8 m/s^2 and mass = 2000 kg.

w = m x g

w = 2000 kg x 9.8 m/s^2

w = 19600 N

The weight of the object is 19600 N (newtons).
