What task requires the most work, lifting a 12-kg sack 2 meters or lifting a 25-kg sack 1 meter?
MrMuchimi

Multiply the masses by the respective distances:

(12 kg) (2 m) = 24 J

(25 kg) (1 m) = 25 J

so the heavier bag takes more work to lift, and (b) is the answer.

(d) is technically correct if the sacks are carrying different contents whose masses are not equal, but since we don't know what's inside each sack, assume 12 kg and 25 kg are the masses of each sack *and* their contents.

A proton moving at 8.00 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.72 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.20 10-1
gladu [14]

Answer:

19.1 deg

Explanation:

v = speed of the proton = 8 x 10⁶ m/s

B = magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.72 T

q = magnitude of charge on the proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

F = magnitude of magnetic force on the proton = 7.20 x 10⁻¹³ N

θ = Angle between proton's velocity and magnetic field

magnitude of magnetic force on the proton is given as

F = q v B Sinθ

7.20 x 10⁻¹³ = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (8 x 10⁶) (1.72) Sinθ

Sinθ = 0.327

θ = 19.1 deg

Please Help!!

Answer:

Potential energy of spring = 24 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant = 85N/m

Extension, e = 0.75m

Mass = 25kg

To find the potential energy of a spring

Potential energy of a spring is given by the formula;

P.E = ½ke²

Substituting into the equation, we have

P.E = ½*85*0.75²

P.E = 42.5 * 0.5625

P.E = 23.91 ≈ 24 Joules

P.E = 24 Joules

-. A 2kg cart moving to the right at 5m/s collides with an 8kg cart at rest. As a
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>

The total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is  

P=mv.  

If we have a system of bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2+...+m_nv'_n

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

In a system of two masses, the equation simplifies to:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v'

The common velocity after this situation is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

The m1=2 kg cart is moving to the right at v1=5 m/s. It collides with an m2= 8 kg cart at rest (v2=0). Knowing they stick together after the collision, the common speed is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{2*5+8*0}{2+8}=\frac{10}{10}=1

The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s

What is the sum of 9260 and 3240?
Ket [755]
The sum is the result of adding 9260 and 3240 together. Each number can be broken down into constituent parts in order to make addition easier. Each place in the number represents its value, so a 2 in the hundreds place represents 200.
You can separate numbers out this way to make it easier to add them. 9260 can be broken down into 9000+200+60 while 3240 is 3000+200+40. You can then add these six numbers together.

60+40 = 100
200+200 = 400
9000+3000 = 12000

Then add your three partial results together to receive the final answer:

12000+400+100 = 12500
