Answer:
Part A W= 2772J
Part B = -2.772J
Explanation:
Work = force × distance
Part A when you move from lower to upper level
= mgh
= 63× 4.4×10
=2772J
=2.772KJ
Part B
When you move from upper to lower
The acceleration due to gravity becomes negative -10m/s^2
Therefore Work =-2772KJ
Work = -2.772KJ
We can use kinematics here if we assume a constant acceleration (not realistic, but they want a single value answer, so it's implied). We know final velocity, vf, is 1.0 m/s, and we cover a distance, d, of 0.47mm or 0.00047 m (1m = 1000mm for conversion). We also can assume that the flea's initial velocity, vi, is 0 at the beginning of its jump. Using the equation vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad, we can solve for our acceleration, a. Like so: a = (vf^2 - vi^2)/2d = (1.0^2 - 0^2)/(2*0.00047) = 1,064 m/s^2, not bad for a flea!
Answer:
Time taken, t = 30.15 minutes
Explanation:
It is given that,
Distance from the center of planet, r = 40 miles
Speed of the shuttle, v = 500 miles per hour
Let t is the time taken by it to complete one full orbit. The displacement of the shuttle is,
d = 251.32 miles
Now time can be calculated using the expression for the velocity as :
t = 0.50264 hours
or
t = 30.15 minutes
So, the shuttle will take 30.15 minutes to complete one full orbit. Hence, this is the required solution.
Acceleration occurs whenever the forces on an object are unbalanced.
It's the group of forces on the object that's either balanced or unbalanced.
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".
