Formula: s = d/t

s = speed

d = distance

t = time

We are given the distance and time, so we can use that to solve for the speed.

s = 100/16.6

s ≈ 6.02m/s

Best of Luck!

Jeff is a landscaping contractor and lifts a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging a board under the rock. Jeff weighs 150 pounds
jonny [76]

Answer: 4

The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force exerted  by the object to the force applied to do work on it.

Here, Jeff tried to lift a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging board under the rock. Jeff who weighs 150 pounds uses all his weight to exert force on lever and lift rock.

Mechanical advantage, M.A.=\frac{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}rock}{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}Jeff}=\frac{600 pounds}{150 pounds}=4.

Therefore, the mechanical advantage that lever provided to Jeff in lifting rock is 4.

If you stood on a planet with four times the mass of Earth, and twice Earth's radius, how much would you weigh?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1/4 times your earth's weight

Explanation:

assuming the Mass of earth = M

Radius of earth = R

∴ the mass of the planet= 4M

the radius of the planet = 4R

gravitational force of earth is given as = \frac{GM}{R^{2} }

where G is the gravitational constant

Gravitational force of the planet = \frac{G4M}{(4R)^{2} }

                                                       =\frac{G4M}{16R^{2} }

                                                       =\frac{GM}{4R^{2} }

recall, gravitational force of earth is given as = \frac{GM}{R^{2} }

∴Gravitational force of planet = 1/4 times the gravitational force of the earth

you would weigh 1/4 times your earth's weight

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

570 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram on the rider.  There are three forces: tension force 15° below the horizontal, drag force 30° above the horizontal, and weight downwards.

The rider is moving at constant speed, so acceleration is 0.

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° - T cos 15° = 0

F = T cos 15° / cos 30°

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

F sin 30° - W - T sin 15° = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 15°

Substituting:

W = (T cos 15° / cos 30°) sin 30° - T sin 15°

W = T cos 15° tan 30° - T sin 15°

W = T (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

Given T = 1900 N:

W = 1900 (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)

W = 570 N

The rider weighs 570 N (which is about the same as 130 lb).
