Answer:

The answer is 4200 J.

Explanation:

The formula of work done is, W = F×D where F is the force of an object and D is the distance. Then you just substitute the values into the equation :

W = F×D

F = 42N

D = 100m

W = 42 × 100

= 4200 J

A object weighing 5 kg, starts to accelerate evenly on a horizontal line. A force moves the object

hammer [34]

Work= force*distance
Work= x*12
Force= mass*acceleration
Force= 5 kg*6
Force= 40 N
Work= 40×12
Work= 480 J (joules)
I think this is it

What are the main ideas of physical science

Mademuasel [1]

Hysical science is defined as the study of observable phenomena in the universe.

the main idea of physical science is known as the "scientific method". 

this method states: 

observe a "real" ( not imaginary ) phenomena. 

make a hypothesis ( or theory / idea ) that EXPLAINS this phenomena. 

conduct a real experiment to test this hyothesis. 

confirm that the experiment validates the original hypothesis and if necessary amend the theory. 

it has worked so well that the very communication you are having with me is a result of the wonders of physical science.

Calculate the acceleration of gravity as a function of depth in the earth (assume it is a sphere). You may use an average densit

Ber [7]

Solution :

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth, g $=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

$g=\frac{G(4/3 \pi R^2 \rho)}{R^2}=G(4/3 \pi R \rho)$

Acceleration due to gravity at 1000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-1000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 822486 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.822 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 8.23 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 2000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-2000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 673552 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.673 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 6.73 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 3000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-3000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 3371 \times 153.86 \times 10^{-8}$

= 5.18 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 4000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-4000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 153.84 \times 2371 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.364 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 3.64 m/s

PlzHELP

Naddika [18.5K]

Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

To calculate displacement, simply draw a vector from your starting point to your final position and solve for the length of this line. If your starting and ending position are the same, like your circular 5K route, then your displacement is 0. In physics, displacement is represented by Δs.

For me to solve this I would need to know the time, but I can give you a handy displacement calculator I used that helped me.

Hope I helped.
