Answer:

option (b) 4900 N

Explanation:

m = 2000 kg, R = 6380 km = 6380 x 10^3 m, Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg, h = R

F = G Me x m / (R + h)^2

F = G Me x m / 2R^2

F = 6.67 x 10^-11 x 5.98 x 10^24 x 2000 / (2 x 6380 x 10^3)^2

F = 4900 N

Calculate the change in momentum of a 45 kg runner who starts out at 1 m/s and speeds up to 3 m/s. Which anser choice is correct
Step2247 [10]

momentum can also be defined in terms of newton second

that is P=F.V

now v =vf-vi

v=3 m/s-1m/s=2 m/s

now F=W=45 kg

therefore

change in momentum=F.v

P=45*2=90 kg.m/s

A cabinet measures 1.20m by5m by75cm what is the volume
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

4.5

Explanation:

volume is length x breath x height

since 75 is in cm, we convert it to metre

= 0.75m

= 1.2m x 5m x 0.75m

=

4.5m {}^{3}

The bob (weight) at the end of a pendulum has a mass of 0.3 kilograms. The bob is pulled to position B and allowed to swing. It
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

0.147 J

Explanation:

The total energy that has been transformed into thermal energy is equal to the loss of gravitational potential energy between the initial situation (bob at h=0.5 m above the ground) and the final situation (bob back but at h=0.45 m above the ground).

Therefore, we have

E_{thermal}=\Delta U=mgh_1 - mgh_2 = mg(h_1 -h_2)

where

m = 0.3 kg is the mass of the bob

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h1 = 0.5 m is the initial height

h2 = 0.45 m is the final height

Substituting, we find the thermal energy

E_{thermal}=(0.3 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.5 m-0.45 m)=0.147 J

Therefore, the energy transformed into thermal energy is 0.147 J.

victus00 [196]

Answer: A - a gap on each side of the clutch disk facing when disengaged

Explanation:

A clutch switch is used to ensure the clutch is disengaged

or Prevent the engine from starting unless the clutch pedal is depressed
