Because the snow suddenly gets too slushy, you decide to carry your 100-n sled the rest of the way home. How much work do you do

when you pick up the sled, lifting it 0.5 m upward? how much work do you do to carry the sled if your if your house is 800 m away?

 Work  =  (weight) x (distance lifted)

           =  (100 N)  x  (0.5 m)

           =       50 joules.


If you carry the sled level all the way to your house, you're not moving it
against gravity. 

Although you're huffing and puffing and sweating by the time you reach
your house, still, according to the Physics definition of work, you have
done NO work on the sled all the way home.

a sprinter with a mass of 80kg accelerates uniformly from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 s. a.)what is the runners acceleration? b.) what i
Katyanochek1 [597]
Part A: 
Acceleration can be calculated by dividing the difference of the initial and final velocities by the given time. That is,
             a = (Vf - Vi) / t
where a is acceleration,
Vf is final velocity,
Vi is initial velocity, and
t is time

Substituting,
            a = (9 m/s - 0 m/s) / 3 s = 3 m/s²
<em>ANSWER: 3 m/s²</em>

Part B: 
From Newton's second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration,
               F = m x a
where F is force,
m is mass, and 
a is acceleration

Substituting,
              F = (80 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 240 kg m/s² = 240 N

<em>ANSWER: 240 N </em>

Part C: 
The distance that the sprinter travel is calculated through the equation,
         d = V₀t + 0.5at²

Substituting,
            d = (0 m/s)(3 s) + 0.5(3 m/s²)(3 s)²
             d = 13.5 m

<em>ANSWER: d = 13.5 m</em>

babunello [35]

Answer:

While a body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to immediate surroundings.

A body is said to be in uniform motion if it covers equal distances in equal interval of time.

A body is said to be in non-uniform motion if it covers unequal distances in equal interval of time or vice-versa

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 160 ft high at an initial speed of 30 mi/h, what is
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

We can use  2 g H = v2^2 - v1^2    or

v2^2 = 2 g H + v1^2

Since 88 ft/sec = 60mph   we have 30 mph = 44 ft/sec

The object will return with the same speed that it had initially so the object

starts out with a downward speed of 44 ft/sec

Then v2^2 = 2 * 32 ft/sec^2 * 160 ft + 44 (ft/sec)^2

v2^2 = (2 * 32 * 160 + 44^2) ft^2 / sec^2 = 12180 ft^2/sec^2

v2 = 110 ft/sec
