Answer:

0.2289

Explanation:

Power required to climb= Fv where F is force and v is soeed. We know that F= mg hence Power, P= mgv and substituting 700 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 2.5 m/s for v then

P= 700*9.81*2.5=17167.5 W= 17.1675 kW

To express it as a fraction of 75 kw then 17.1675/75=0.2289 or 22.89%

Grace [21]

Answer:

0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

according to Newton's second law, we are goven a relationship between force, mass and acceleration, with the formula:

F = m×a

F for force

m for mass

a for acceleration

we use the given data and get:

20 = 40×a

we find a=20/40=0.5m/s²

How will heat flow between objects?
alukav5142 [94]
Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object. Two objects of different temperature always interact. There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another. They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium? What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitation
JulijaS [17]

Question:

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium?

A) the electromagnetic force and gravity

B) outward pressure and the strong force

C) outward pressure and inward gravity

D) the strong force and gravity

E) the strong force and kinetic energy

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Outward Pressure and Inward gravity                                                        

Explanation:

Gravitational equilibrium is a balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward push of internal gas pressure. It also refers to the condition of a star in which the weight of overlying layers at each point is balanced by the total pressure at that point.

As the weight increases in the lower layers of the sun, the pressure also increases to maintain this balance.   So you find that the outward push of pressure balances the inward pull of gravity thus creating an equilibrium.

Why is gravitational equilibrium important?

The simple answer is <u>balance. </u> If for instance the sun as a stable star (which has gravitational equilibrium) loses it's balance, it becomes highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts. These outbursts are caused by the very high radiation pressure at the star's upper layers, which blows significant portions of the matter at the "surface" into space during eruptions that may rage for several years. Of course such a condition is adverse to the existence and support of life.

Cheers!
