Answer:

The only work done is when the person lifts the sack over a distance, W = 78.48 [N]

Explanation:

We have to remember the definition of work, which tells us that work is the result of a force by a distance, we must apply this concept in each of the movements of the person in the problem described.

W = F * d

where:

F = force [N]

d = distance [m]

The force is given by the producto of the mass by the gravity.

F = 5 * 9.81 = 49.05 [N]

W = 49.05 * 1.6 = 78.48 [N]

Which of these statements is most likely correct about the Nebular theory of formation of planets?
exis [7]
Correct answer is D.

Explanation:
A) is not correct answer because this type of theory can not become law. Laws are properties that are same in any part of universe. Nebular theory is not correct for every part of universe.

B) is not correct answer because this theory could be replaced if some evidence show that some other theory is more likely to be correct.

C) is not correct answer because the study has been done on other nebulas in our galaxy. There are many nebulas and by obserwing them this theory was developed.

f=ma

f=70N

m1=50kg

m2= 60kg

a1= f/m

a1= 70/50

a1= 1.4N/kg

a2= 70/60

A train 471 m long is moving on a straight track with a speed of 75.1 km/h. The engineer applies the brakes at a crossing, and l
hram777 [196]

Answer:

t = 37.6 s

Explanation:

As we know that train is initially moving with the speed

v_i = 75.1 km/h

now we know that

v_i = 20.86 m/s

now the final speed of the train when it crossed the crossing

v_f = 15 km/h

v_f = 4.17 m/s

now we can use kinematics here

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

4.17^2 - 20.86^2 = 2 a(471)

a = -0.44 m/s^2

Now the time to cross that junction is given as

v_f - v_i = at

4.17 - 20.86 = a(-0.44)

t = 37.6 s

How come in free fall you feel weightless even though gravity is pulling down on you?
AysviL [449]
Feeling of Weight.

When walking, you feel the weight on your feet, therefore, your brain automatically refers to it as a source of weight.

In the air there is no platform to land on, therefore the brain does not have the conscience to register you getting pulled down.
