The force of gravity form the Sun will be stronger on a n object with more mass
We can calculate this with the law of conservation of energy. Here we have a food package with a mass m=40 kg, that is in the height h=500 m and all of it's energy is potential. When it is dropped, it's potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. So we can say that its kinetic and potential energy are equal, because we are neglecting air resistance:
Ek=Ep, where Ek=(1/2)*m*v² and Ep=m*g*h, where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body.
(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out and we get:
(1/2)*v²=g*h, and we multiply by 2 both sides of the equation
v²=2*g*h, and we take the square root to get v:
v=√(2*g*h)
v=99.04 m/s
So the package is moving with the speed of v= 99.04 m/s when it hits the ground.
Answer:
(a). The spring compressed is
.
(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.
Explanation:
Given that,
Acceleration = a
mass = m
spring constant = k
(a). We need to calculate the spring compressed
Using balance equation

....(I)
The spring compressed is
.
(b). If the compression is 2.5 times larger than it is when the mass sits in a still elevator,
The compression is given by

Here, acceleration is zero
So, 
We need to calculate the acceleration
Put the value of x in equation (I)




Hence, (a). The spring compressed is
.
(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.
D) although recent research (1990's) has shown Uranus and Neptune to be ice giants and have heavier substances.
Answer:
Part a)
P = 13.93 kW
Part b)
R = 8357.6 Cents
Explanation:
Part A)
heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

here we have



Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour
so power required to melt is given by



Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

Part B)
Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours



now the total cost of energy consumption is given as
