How do you solve a problem like this: How much force must Mr. McDonald exert to lift a 112 kg object? What would happen if Mr. M

cDonald would exert more than the the required force to lift the object?

The weight of an object is (mass) x (gravity).

The weight of Mr. McDonald's object is  (112) x (9.8) = <u>1,097.6 newtons</u>.
(about 247 pounds)

That's the force pulling the object down, because it is near the Earth, and
the Earth and the object are attracting each other with forces of gravity.

In order to move the object away from the center of the Earth ("lift" it), a force greater than 1,097.6 newtons must be applied to it <em>in the other direction</em> ... <u>upwards</u>.

<em><u>Any</u></em> force greater than its weight will lift it.  The more the upward force exceeds the minimum of 1,097.6 newtons, the faster Mr. McDonald's object will <u>accelerate</u> upwards.

Astronauts brought back 500 lb of rock samples from the moon. how many kilograms did they bring back? 1 kg = 2.20 lb 227 kg 227
Aleksandr [31]

Astronauts brought back 227kg of rock samples from the moon.

<h3>Who is an astronaut?</h3>

A person who has been trained, outfitted, and sent into space by a human spaceflight program to serve as a commander or crew member is known as an astronaut (from the Ancient Greek words (astron), meaning "star," and (nautes), meaning "sailor"). The word is occasionally used to refer to anyone who flies into space, including scientists, politicians, journalists, and tourists, despite the fact that it is typically only designated for professional space travelers.

600 astronauts have made space flights since 1961. Up until 2002, only governments—either the military or civilian space agencies—sponsored and educated astronauts. A new class of astronaut was introduced in 2004 with the suborbital flight of the privately funded SpaceShipOne: the commercial astronaut.

Explanation:

1kg=2.20lb

500lb=(1/2.20*500)kg

500lb=227kg

Atoms of the same element with varying number of neutrons are called
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Isotopes

Answer:

The number of neutrons can vary, but not protons. This is called an isotope. An example is deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen with an extra neutron, but the same number of protons.

A remote controlled car is moving in a vacant parking lot. The velocity of the car as a function of time is given by v= [5.00 m/
Jlenok [28]

The magnitude and direction of the velocity of the car at t = 8.00 s is v = 7,468 m / s and the vector direction = θ = 58,984°

<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>

In the coordinates of the two-dimensional plane (xy) there is a position vector of a point

You can write P as:

P = xi + yi

where i denotes the unit vector in the x and y directions

While the magnitude of the vector:

\large{\boxed{\bold{P~=~\sqrt{x^2~+~y^2}}}}

and its direction

\large{\boxed{\bold{\theta~=~arc~tan\frac{y}{x}}}}

Likewise with the instantaneous speed which is a derivative of the position function of time

V =\frac{dP}{dt}

V ~=~\frac{dx}{dt}i~i~+\frac{dy}{dt}j

V = vx i + vy j

The velocity of the car as a function of time is given by v = [5.00 m / s - (0.0180 m / s²) t²] i + [2.00 m / s + (0.550 m / s²) t] j so that:

vx = 5 - 0.0180t² i

vy = 2 + 0.55t j

So the instantaneous velocity at t = 8 s becomes:

vx = 5-0.0180.8²

vx = 3,848 m / s

vy = 2+ 0.55.8

vy = 6.4

So the velocity position vector becomes:

v = 3,848 i + 6.4 y

and the magnitude becomes:

v=\sqrt{3.848^2+6.4^2}

v = 7,468 m / s

While the velocity vector direction:

\theta~=~=arc~tan\frac{vy}{vx}

\theta~=~arc~tan~\frac{6.4}{3.848}

θ = 58,984

How long does it take for the hubble telescope to orbit earth
il63 [147K]

Answer:

95 minutes

Explanation:

According to N.A.S.A, the Hubble Space Telescope makes one orbit around Earth every 95 minutes.

"The Hubble Space Telescope is a large telescope in space. It was launched into orbit by space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. Hubble orbits about 547 kilometers (340 miles) above Earth. It is the length of a large school bus and weighs as much as two adult elephants. Hubble travels about 5 miles per second: That is like traveling from the eastern coast of the United States to the western coast in 10 minutes. Hubble is solar-powered.

Hubble takes sharp pictures of objects in the sky such as planets, stars and galaxies. Hubble has made more than one million observations. These include detailed pictures of the birth and death of stars, galaxies billions of light years away, and comet pieces crashing into Jupiter's atmosphere.

Scientists have learned a lot about the universe from these pictures. Many of them are beautiful to look at."

A ball is thrown downward from the top of a building with an initial speed of 25 m/s.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

h = 69.6 m

Explanation:

Data:

  • Vo = 25 m/s
  • t = 2.0 s
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = ?

Formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{h=V_{0}*t+\frac{g*(t)^{2}}{2}}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{h=25\frac{m}{s}*2.0\ s+\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*(2.0\ s)^{2}}{2}}}
  • \boxed{\bold{h=50\frac{m}{s^{2}}+\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*4\ s^{2}}{2}}}
  • \boxed{\bold{h=50\ m+\frac{39.2\ m}{2}}}
  • \boxed{\bold{h=50\ m+19.6\ m}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{h=69.6\ m}}}

The building has a height of <u>69.6 meters.</u>

Greetings.
