Answer

given,

mass of the hiker = 66.5 kg

elevation of the hiker,h₁ = 1270 m

elevation of top peak,h₂ = 2660 m

a) Change in potential energy

    Δ PE = m g h₂ - m g h₁

    Δ PE = m g (h₂ - h₁)

    Δ PE = 66.5 x 9.8 x  (2660 - 1270)

    Δ PE = 905863 J

b) Minimum work require by the hiker will be equal to Δ PE = 905863 J

c) yes, it can be more than this, if friction is present on the surface.

The displacement volume of an automobile engine is 167 in3. what is the displacement volume in liters?
forsale [732]

The displacement volume in liters is 2.74 liters.

<h3>What is displacement volume?</h3>

Displacement volume is the quantity of solvent that will be displaced by a specified quantity of a solid during dissolution.

It can also be defined as the volume displaced by the piston as it moves between top dead center and bottom dead center in a car engine.

<h3>Displacement volume in liters</h3>

1 liter = 61.02 in³

? = 167 in³

= 167/61.02

= 2.74 liters

Thus, the displacement volume in liters is 2.74 liters.

HELP
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

Displacement (d) = 480 km = 48000 m

Time (t) = 8 Hours = 480 minute

Velocity (v) = ?

Now,

Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time

v = d/t

v = 480/8

v = 60 km/hr

Thus, The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Compared to Jupiter, Saturn's atmosphere is more uniform with no significant variation in color in the lower cloud levels. much
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Compared to Jupiter, Saturn's atmosphere is more calm with fewer disturbances or storms.

The Atmosphere in Jupiter is highly violent and thinner as compared with Saturn.

The layers of atmosphere on Saturn is thicker because of lower gravity of Saturn and hence they are calmer.

A brick in the shape of a cube with sides 10 cm has a density of 2500 kg/m^3. What is its weight? a.) 250 N
Arisa [49]

Answer:

c.) 25 N

Explanation:

 We find the volume of the brick, knowing that the volume of a cube is given by the formula:

l=0,1 metros \\V=l^{3}\\V=(0,1\: \: m)^{3}=0,001\: \: m^{3}

being l the side of the cube, which in this case is 10 cm or 0,1 m. Now we find the mass of the object, knowing the density and the Volume of the cube:

m=V*d\\m=(0,001 \:\:m^{3})(2500 \: \: \frac{Kg}{m^{3}})=2,5 \:\: Kg

We find the weight by multiplying the mass of the object with the gravity constant.

W=m*g=(2.5 \:Kg)*(9,81 \:m/s^{2} )=24,5 N\approx25\: N

What will be the final velocity of a rock if we drop it off of a bridge and it strikes the ground 2.8s later (ignoring air resis
mars1129 [50]
Formula for final velocity: Vf= vi+(a*t)
Vi- initial velocity, a=acceleration, t-time

Vf=vi+(at)
Vf= 0+(9.8m/s*2.8s)
Vf= 27.44 m/s

The acceleration of the Earth when dropping something would be 9.8 m/s

Here is an reference that can help you answer problems like these.
Hope this helps and good luck :)
