Answer:
P = 450 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a child, m = 18 kg
The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the slide is 2.5 metres.
The Gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg
We need to find the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the child sliding from the top to the bottom of the slide.
The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :
P = mgh
Substituting all the values,
P = 18 kg × 10 m/s² × 2.5 m
P = 450 J
Hence, the decrease in gravitational potential energy is 450 J.
Answer:
A.) 42.7 m/s
B.) 0.33 m/s^2
C.) 90 kg
Explanation:
A.) If Justin races his Chevy S-10 down highway 37 north for 2,560 meters in 60 seconds, what is his velocity?
Velocity = displacement/time
Velocity = 2560/60
Velocity = 42.67 m/s
B.) The Chevy S-10 started rounding at 10 meters per hour. What is the acceleration at 30 seconds on the highway?
Acceleration = velocity/time
Acceleration = 10/30
Acceleration = 0.33 m/s^2
C.) The S-10 has a force of 30 N. What is the mass of the car?
Force = mass × acceleration
30 = mass × 0.33
Mass = 30/ 0.33
Mass = 90 kg
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Resistors in series add. There is only one path the current can take. That's why Christmas Tree lights sometimes give a lot of trouble. If a bulb burns out, it could be any one of them and time is needed to find the burned out bulb.
That being the case R = R1 + R2
R1 = 50 ohms
R2 = 50 ohms
R = 50 + 50
R = 100 ohms
Answer A
This is a way of measuring how much gravity there is. The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength.
Gravitational field strength = Weight/mass unit is N/kg
Weight = mass x gravitational field strength unit is N
On Earth the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg. Other planets have different gravitational field strengths. The Moon has a gravitational field strength of 1.6 N/kg. You might have seen films of astronauts leaping high on the moon.
Here on Earth, if I jump I am pulled back to ground by gravity. What is my weight? My mass is 80kg and if we multiply by gravitational field strength (10N/kg) - my weight is 800N. Now if I go to the moon, my mass will be the same, 80kg. We multiply that by the moon's gravitational field strength, which is 1.6 N/ kg. That means my weight on the moon is 128N. So I have different weights on the Earth and on the Moon. That's why astronauts can jump high into the air on the moon - they're lighter up there.
Jupiter is a very large planet with strong gravitational field strength of 25 N/ kg. My body is 80kg. If I go to Jupiter my weight is going to be 25 x 80 = 2,000 N. That means I wouldn't be able to get off the ground or stand up straight! I would probably be lying down all the time there. So weight varies depending on which planet you are on. You can find out more yourself by looking up tables of weight on different planets.
The answer would be C (the one you picked)
Hope this helps
