Answer:

We use the relationship F = m x a, adapted for Weight: W = m x g

Weight is the force, m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity. Take an example: you are 100 kg made up of 70 kg of body mass and 30 kg of space suit. Your weight on the Moon would be 100 kg x 1.62 m/s^2 = 162 Newtons (weight force).

On Earth that would be a Weight of 100 kg x 9.81 m/s^2 = 981 Newtons.

A constant force of 11.8 N in the positive x direction acts on a 4.7-kg object as it moves from the origin to the point (1.6i –

zhenek [66]

Answer:

W = 18.88 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Constant force, F = 11.8 N (in +x direction)

Mass of an object, m = 4.7 kg

The object moves from the origin to the point (1.6i – 4.6j) m

We need to find the work is done by the given force during this displacement. The work done by an object is given by the formula as follows :

$W=F{\cdot} d\\\\W=(11.8i){\cdot} (1.6i-4.6j)\\\\=11.8\times 1.6\\\\=18.88\ J$

So, the work done by the given force is 18.88 J.

An airplane weighing 11,000 N climbs to a

Gennadij [26K]

The power in horsepower is 40.1 hp

Explanation:

We start by calculating the work done by the airplane during the climb, which is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

$W=(mg)\Delta h$

where

mg = 11,000 N is the weight of the airplane

$\Delta h = 1.6 km = 1600 m$ is the change in height

Substituting,

$W=(11,000)(1600)=17.6\cdot 10^6 J$

Now we can calculate the power delivered, which is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

$W=17.6\cdot 10^6 J$ is the work done

$t=9.8 min \cdot 60 = 588 s$ is the time taken

Substituting,

$P=\frac{17.6\cdot 10^6 J}{588}=2.99\cdot 10^4 W$

Finally, we can convert the power into horsepower (hp), keeping in mind that

$1 hp = 746 W$

Therefore,

$P=\frac{2.99\cdot 10^4}{746}=40.1 hp$
