Assume that a friend hands you a 10-newton box to hold for her. If you hold the box without moving it at a height of 10 meters a

malfutka [58]

Answer:

100 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

W = mgh................... Equation 1

Where W = workdone to hold the box above the ground, mg = weight of the box, h = height of the box.

From the question,

Given: mg = 10 newtons, h = 10 meters.

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = 10×10

W = 100 Joules.

Hence the amount of workdone is 100 Joules

What is the energy of a 4kg apple that is sitting on a 2 m high tree branch?

miv72 [106K]

78.4 joules is the energy of a 4 kg apple that is sitting on a 2 m high tree branch.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When an apple falls to the ground from a tree, its positional energy (stored as potential gravitational energy) turns into kinetic energy, during a fall. Chemical potential energy is chemical energy because it is food and potential energy as it can still have ability to move. So, in the given case, kinetic energy is zero.

To find potential energy, the formula would be

$\text { potential energy }(P . E)=m \times g \times h$

Where, given

m – Mass – 4 kg

$g-\text { Earth'sgravity }-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ (Known value)

h – Height - 2 m

Substitute these values, we get

$P . E=4 \times 9.8 \times 2=78.4 \text { joules }$

A couple of astronauts agree to rendezvous in space after hours. Their plan is to let gravity bring them together. She has a mas

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of female astronaut = 9.33*10^-12 m/s^2; Acceleration of male astronaut = 7.56*10^-12 m/s^2

(b) 27.013 days

(c) No, their accelerations would not be constant.

Explanation:

In the given question, we have:

Mass of female astronaut $M_{1}$ = 60.0 kg

Mass of male astronaut $M_{2}$ = 74.0 kg

Distance between them (S) = 23.0 m

(a) The free-body diagram is shown in the attached figure.

Using the equations below, the initial accelerations of the two astronauts can be calculated:

Force of gravity (F) = $\frac{G*M_{1}*M_{2}}{S^{2} }$

G = 6.67*10^-11 $\frac{m^{3} }{kg*s^{2} }$

F = (6.67*10^-11 *60*74)/23^2 = 5.598*10^-10 N

For the female astronaut, her initial acceleration = F/ $M_{1}$ = 5.598*10^-10/60 = 9.33*10^-12 m/s^2

For the male astronaut, his acceleration = F/ $M_{2}$ = 5.598*10^-10/74 = 7.56*10^-12 m/s^2

(b) Since the different between their mass is not much, we can deduce that:

$a_{average} = \frac{a_{1}+a_{2}}{2}$ = (9.33*10^-12 + 7.56*10^-12)/2 = 8.445*10^-12 m/s^2

Using the equation below, we can calculate the the time:

S = ut + 1/2 (at^2) where u = 0

23 = 1/2 (8.445*10^-12)*t^2

t^2 = 5.447*10^12

t = 2333883.044 s = 27.013 days

(c) No, their accelerations will not be constant. It will increase because their radii would be decreasing.

Which machine can create images of atoms?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: Scanning Tunneling Microscope

Explanation:

The answer is, of course, the greatest Star Trek fan art imaginable: images literally built out of individual atoms. The images are the work of IBM scientists who created the unique artwork with a two-ton machine called the Scanning Tunneling Microscope that moves single atoms across a tiny piece of copper.
