<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a) 5.00 x 10^8 J

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The work done to move the sailboat is calculated through the equation;

W = F x d

where F is force and d is the distance.

Substituting the known values from the given above,

                             W = (5.00 x 10⁴ N)(10 km)(1000 m/ 1km)

                                 = 5.00 x 10⁸ J

Thus, the work done is <u>5.00 x 10⁸Joules</u>

__________ research is designed to measure the association between variables that are not manipulated by the researcher.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Option c. Correlational

Explanation:

Correlational research is basically a method of carrying out a research where an experiment can not be conducted and where a researcher has to figure out that whether the two variable are in association with each other and if these are related then in what way the association between these two exists without any manipulation from the researcher's end.

It seeks to understand, measure and make assessment of the relationship or  

association between these variables but can not find out if a variable is caused by the other variable.

What is the kinetic energy of a 1.40 kg discus with a speed of 22.5 m/s?
Oksana_A [137]
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) (1.4 kg) (22.5 m/s)²

                         =    (0.7 kg)  (506.25 m²/s² )

                         =          354.375  kg-m²/s²  =  354.375 joules .

This is just the kinetic energy associated with a 1.4-kg glob of
mass sailing through space at 22.5 m/s.  In the case of a frisbee,
it's also spinning, and there's some additional kinetic energy stored
in the spin.

Given that coal used by electric power plants has a heating value of 27.5 million btus metric ton (25 million btus per ton), det
fredd [130]

Answer:

• 36.4 kg of coal.

• 80 pounds of coal.

Explanation:

Using proportionality constant,

Mass of coal = 1,000,000/27,500,000 btus/metric ton

= 0.0364 metric tons of coal

Mass of coal = 1,000,000/25,000,000 btus/ton

= 0.04 tons of coal.

Converting metric tons to kilogram,

1 metric ton = 1000kg,

0.0364 metric ton;

= 36.4 kg of coal.

Converting tons to pounds,

1 ton = 2000 pounds,

0.04 metric ton;

= 80 pounds of coal.

A van is traveling with an initial velocity of 12 m/s. The driver takes a time of 45 seconds to speed up to a velocity of 20 m/s
Rufina [12.5K]
  • Initial velocity=u=12m/s
  • Final velocity=v=20m/s
  • Time=t=45s

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{20-12}{45}

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{8}{45}

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=0.1m/s^2

Now

  • Distance=s

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow v^2-u^2=2as

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow (20)^2-12^2=2(0.1)s

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 400-144=0.2s

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 256=0.2s

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow s=\dfrac{256}{0.2}

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow s=1280m
