If you exert a force of 10.0 n to lift a box a distance of 0.9 m how much work do you do

1 answer:

5 0

A bit vague since it's not clear whether the applied force is in the same direction as the box's displacement. But let's assume it is. Then the work done is:

W = Fd

W = work, F = force, d = displacement

Given values:

F = 10.0N, d = 0.9m

Plug in and solve for W:

W = 10.0(0.9)

W = 9J

A dragster starts from rest and travels 1/4 mi in 6.80 s with constant acceleration. What is its velocity when it crosses the fi

Ahat [919]

<h2>Its velocity when it crosses the finish line is 117.65 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = ?

Time, t = 6.8 s

Displacement, s = 1/4 mi = 400 meters

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

400 = 0 x 6.8 + 0.5 x a x 6.8²

a = 17.30 m/s²

Now we have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Final velocity, v = ?

Time, t = 6.8 s

Acceleration, a = 17.30 m/s²

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 17.30 x 6.8

v = 117.65 m/s

Its velocity when it crosses the finish line is 117.65 m/s

1. Define weight

andrezito [222]

1. Weight is the gravitational pull with which the earth attracts the body towards the center of the earth. The S.I unit is Newton (N)

2. The weight of an object is related to its mass with the below equation.

W = mg

Where W = weight, m = mass and g = acceleration due to gravity

3. The mass m = 50 kg and g = 9.8 m/ $s^{2}$

Substitute the parameters in the equation above.

W = 50 x 9.8

W = 490 N

4. An object is accelerating when it speeds up. If the object slows down, it means it is decelerating. The correct answer is option A

5. Newton's second law of motion is:

F = ma

Where F = force applied, m = mass and a = acceleration

Therefore, Newton's second law of motion relates an object's acceleration to its net force acting on it. The correct answer is option C

6. According to Newton's second law of motion which relates an object's acceleration to its mass, doubling the net force acting on an object a doubles its acceleration. Because mass is always constant.

7. Since the weight of an object is related to its mass with the equation.

W = mg, If the mass of an object doubles, its weight will also doubles. Option A is the correct answer.

8. If you know the mass of an object, you can calculate its weight with the formula F = mX when X = 9.8m/ $s^{2}$

9. Force is expressed in unit as Newton (N)

10. The parameters given are :

mass m = 20kg

Force F = 40N

To calculate acceleration, use the formula F = ma

Substitute all the parameters into the equation.

40 = 20a

a = 40/20

a = 2m/ $s^{2}$
