A) Vt = Vo - gt
= 0 - 9.8 . 2
= - 19.6 m/sec (acting downward)
b) ∆y = Vt^2 - Vo^2 / 2g
= (-19.6)^2 - 0 / 19.6 = 19.6 meters

A worker uses a cart to move a load of bricks a distance of 10m across a parking lot. if he pushes the cart with a constant forc

andriy [413]

Answer:

2090 J

Explanation:

the work done to move the cart is equal to the product between the force applied and the distance traveled:

$W=Fd$

In this case, the force applied is F=209 N, while the distance covered is d=10 m, therefore the work done is

$W=Fd=(209 N)(10 m)=2090 J$

Calculate the normal force pushing up from the table in each example 8 kg

garik1379 [7]

The correct answer to the question is: 78.4 N.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mass of the object is given as m = 8 Kg.

We are asked to calculate the normal force of the object.

The object is resting on the table.

Hence, the object pushes the table downward with a force equal to it's weight.

The table, in turn, pushes the object with the same force as given by the object, but in the upward direction.

The force given by the table on the object is known as the normal reaction of the object which acts perpendicular to the surface of the object.

Hence, the normal reaction is equal to the weight of the body.

The weight of a body is the product of it's mass with acceleration due to gravity.

So, the weight of 8 Kg object is calculated as -

Weight = mg

= 8 × 9.8 N.

= 78.4 N.

Here, g is known as acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, the normal force pushing up from the table is 78.4 N.

Hi, I am having some difficulties in solving this question. Could someone please explain this question to me in detail. The thin

aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 3.0×10⁸ m

b) 0 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the starting position to the final position.

a) In half a year, the Earth travels from one point on the circle to the point on the exact opposite side of the circle (from 0° to 180°). The distance between the points is the diameter of the circle.

x = 2r

x = 2 (1.5×10⁸ m)

x = 3.0×10⁸ m

b) In a full year, the Earth travels one full revolution, so it ends up back where it started. The displacement is therefore 0 m.

A planet's density can be measured by combining

Lena [83]

Answer:

a. Doppler and transit observations.

Explanation:

By means of the dopler effect, the radial velocity of an extrasolar planet can be measured, this is achieved by observing Doppler shifts in the spectrum of the star around which the planet orbits. This measure, combined with the transit observations, makes possible determine the density of the planet.
