Explanation:

a) How much work is done by gravity?

w = f x d
w = 950 x 10 x 5.5 = 52250j

b) How much work is done by tension?

v²=u²+2as
0.75²=0.25²+2a x5.5
0.56=0.06+2a x5.5
2a x5.5 = 0.56 - 0.06
2a x 5.5 =0.5
11a=0.5
a = 0.5/11 = 0.05m/s²

w = f x d

w = 950 x 0.05 x 5.5 = 261.25j

Which career is most concerned with the study of radioactive isotopes?

leonid [27]

<span>The career that is most concerned with the study of radioactive isotopes is chemistry. You need to have passed AP chemistry to actually deal with the isotopes. In a quick reference, isotopes are when the atom has difference amount of neutrons, making the atomic mass differ.</span>

A soccer player kicks a 0.44 kg ball with a force of 57.6 N, what is the ball’s acceleration

noname [10]

THE BALL'S ACCELERATION IS 130.90 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law "the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (m) of an object times its acceleration (a)", meaning that when the soccer player kicks a ball, a force is acting on the ball, therefore increasing it's acceleration

SO FOR CALCULATING THIS WE WILL USE NEWTON LAW,

FORCE = MASS × ACCELERATION

WE ARE GIVEN

FORCE = 57.6N

MASS= .44KG

SO HERE WE APPLYING FORMULA ,WE WILL GET

ACCELERATION = $\frac{FORCE}{MASS}$

ACCELERATION = $\frac{57.6N}{.44KG}$

ACCELERATION =130.90 $\frac{m}{s}$

Why is the earth's magnetic field important for us?

Nataly_w [17]

It protects us from the magnetic/electrical radiation that comes from the sun. High radiation periods coincide with solar storms.

The stoplights on a street are designed to keep traﬃc moving at 26 mi/h. the average length of a street block between traﬃc ligh

bonufazy [111]

We use the formula,

$v = \frac{d}{t}$ .

Here, v is velocity and its value given 26 mi/h ( in m/s, $\frac{26 \times 1.609 \times 10^{3} m}{60 \times 60 s} =11.62 \ m/s$ ) and d is distance and its value is given 80 m.

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$t = \frac{80 m}{11.62m/s } = 6.88 \ s$

Thus, the time delay between green lights on successive blocks to keep the traﬃc moving continuously is 6.88 s
