Gravity obeys the inverse square law. At 6400 km above the center of the Earth (Earth's surface) you weigh x. Twice that reduces your weight to 1/4th. Four times that height reduces your weight to 1/16th. 4 times 6400 km is 25,600 km. But that is above the center of the earth, and the question requests the height above the surface, so we deduct 6400 km to arrive at our final answer: 19,200 km.
Incidentally, it doesn't exactly work the opposite way. At the center of the Earth the mass would be equally distributed around you, and you would therefore be weightless.
Answer:
Explanation:
When two forces acting on a line of action and they are equal in magnitude but opposite it direction, it forms a couple.
Torque is defined as the product of either force and the perpendicular distance between the two forces.
It is a vector quantity.
The net torque is zero, it means the anticlockwise torque is equal to the clockwise torque.
It means they balances each other.
Answer:If kinetic energy increases, so does the thermal energy, and vice versa.
Please brainliest!
Answer:
Explanation:
(ΔK + ΔUg + ΔUs + ΔEch + ΔEth = W)
ΔK is increase in kinetic energy . As the athelete is lifting the barbell at constant speed change in kinetic energy is zero .
ΔK = 0
ΔUg is change in potential energy . It will be positive as weight is being lifted so its potential energy is increasing .
ΔUg = positive
ΔUs is change in the potential energy of sportsperson . It is zero since there is no change in the height of athlete .
ΔUs = 0
ΔEth is change in the energy of earth . Here earth is doing negative work . It is so because it is exerting force downwards and displacement is upwards . Hence it is doing negative work . Hence
ΔEth = negative .
b )
work done by athlete
= 400 x 2 = 800 J
energy output = 800 J
c )
It is 25% of metabolic energy output of his body
so metalic energy output of body
= 4x 800 J .
3200 J
power = energy output / time
= 3200 / 1.6
= 2000 W .
d )
1 ) Since he is doing same amount of work , his metabolic energy output is same as that in earlier case .
2 ) Since he is doing the same exercise in less time so his power is increased . Hence in the second day his power is more .
