Answer:
h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m
Explanation:
Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh
PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor
PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)
Given
PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J
PE2 = 0J
PE2 – PE1 = mgh
0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh
2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h
h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m
Answer:
the Princess in "St. George and the Dragon"
Answer:
78.498N
Explanation:
The Net force provided by the spinnaker can be obtained from Newton's second law of motion as follows;

where m is the mass, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and t is the time interval for which the force acted.
Given;
m =980lb
v = 12mi/h
u =8mi/hr
t = 10s.
It is important to convert all quantities to their SI units where necessary, so we do that as follows;
1lb = 0.45kg,
hence 980lb = 980 x 0.45kg = 441kg.
1mile = 1609.34m
1hour = 3600s,
therefore;


Substituting all values into equation (1), we obtain the following;

Answer:
b. 84 minutes
Explanation:
= Centripetal acceleration = 9.81 m/s²
r = Radius of Earth = 6378.1 km
v = Velocity
Centripetal acceleration is given by

Time period is given by

The time period of Earth’s rotation would be 84.43835 minutes
