Answer:

Weight is a force

Explanation:

Weight is the force of gravity on a mass. It can also be seen through this equation: F=ma, where m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration of gravity.

Imagine a 15 kg block moving with a velocity of 20 m/s to the left. Calculate the kinetic Energy of this block.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

3000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

If m = 15 kg and v = -20 m/s:

KE = ½ (15 kg) (-20 m/s)²

KE = 3000 J

What force must the worker exert to get the box moving & what force must the worker exert to accelerate the box at 0.1 meter

Since static friction is the minimum force required to just start the motion of a stationary object.

Here if we need to start an object from rest then we required F = 700 N

So for the first part of the above problem Force will be F = 700 N

Now if the box is already moving then we will have to use kinetic friction force between box and floor

now we can write the equation of net force as

$F - F_k = m*a$

here

$F_k = kinetic friction = 220 N$

$m = mass = 500 kg$

$a = acceleration = 0.1 m/s^2$

now we will have

$F - 220 = 500* 0.1$

$F = 220 + 50 = 270 N$
