Answer: work = 1,305kJ

Explanation:

angle= 30°

force= 1,500N

distance= 1,000m

The formula for work is : Work= force x distance, however there is an angle of 30° between the direction of force applied and the direction of motion, therefore force must be decomposed to its value on the horizontal axis which is the direction of motion by using the cosine of the very angle.

W= F×cos(α)×D

W= 1,500×cos (30)×1,000

W= 1,305kJ ( kilojoules)

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planetary satellite that has a radius of 1.74 × 10^6 m and a mass of 7.35 × 10^22 k
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2.87 km/s

Explanation:

radius of planet, R = 1.74 x 10^6 m

Mass of planet, M = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

height, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m

G = 6.67 x 106-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Use teh formula for acceleration due to gravity

g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}

g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{1.74^{2}\times 10^{12}}

g = 1.62 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = ?, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m , final velocity, v = 0

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh

0 = v² - 2 x 1.62 x 2.55 x 10^6

v² = 8262000

v = 2874.37 m/s

v = 2.87 km/s

Thus, the initial speed should be 2.87 km/s.

Please help, and show steps. Thank you very much!
Vikentia [17]
V = 8 * 10^2 km/h = 800km/h
S= 1,8* 10^3 km = 1800km
t = ?
v = S/t
t = S/v
t = 1800km/ 800km/h
t ≈ 2,25h (135min)

Select the phrases that correctly describe density. Density is a chemical property. Density relates a mass to its volume. Densit
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Density relates a mass to its volume.

Density varies with temperature

Density determines if a substance floats or sinks.

Density may have units of grams per milliliter (g/mL)

Explanation:

Density D is a characteristic property of a substance or material and is defined as the relationship between the mass m of a body or substance and the volume V it occupies:

D=\frac{m}{V}

This means the density is inversely proportional to the volume.

On the other hand, density is a scalar quantity and according to the International System of Units its unit is D=\frac{kg}{m^{3}} , although it can be also expressed in \frac{g}{ml}.

It should be noted that the density of a body is related to its buoyancy, a substance or body will float on another fluid if its density is lower. In addition, if the pressure of the substance remains constant, as the temperature increases, the density decreases; this means density varies with the temperature as well.
