Answer:

Work, W = 846.72 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the watermelon, m = 4.8 kg

It is dropped from rest from the roof of 18 m building. We need to find the work done by the gravity on the watermelon from the roof to the ground. It is same as gravitational potential energy i.e.

W = mgh

W=4.8\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 18\ m

W = 846.72 Joules

So, the work done by the gravity on the watermelon is 846.72 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

A dolphin can swim at a constant speed of 12.5 m/s. How
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt 3.6 \ seconds}

Explanation:

Time can be found by dividing the distance by the speed.

t=\frac{d}{s}

The distance is 45 meters and the speed is 12.5 meters per second.

d= 45 \ m \\s= 12.5 \ m/s

t=\frac{45 \ m}{12.5 \ m/s}

Divide. Note that the meters, or "m" will cancel each other out.

t=\frac{45 }{12.5 \ s}

t=3.6 \ s

It will take the dolphin 3.6 seconds to swim a distance of 45 meters are 12.5 meters per second.

Alex

Answer:

Explanation: Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. The device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force.

A 75 kg Spider Man running at 3.0 m/s jumps onto a trash can lid that has a mass of 10kg and that is already moving in the same
QveST [7]
In order to find the final velocity of the skier and the trash can lid, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system remains constant. Mathematically, in this case:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₃v₃
Where m₃ and v₃ are the combined mass and velocity.

75*3 + 10*2 = (75 + 10)*v₃
v₃ = 2.88 m/s

The final velocity is 2.88 m/s
