Answer:

1750 Joules.

Explanation:

Work done = force * distance

= 7 * 250

= 1750 Joules.

A ball is projected into the air with 100 j of kinetic energy which is transformed to gravitational potential energy at the top

raketka [301]

<span>when it returns to its original level after encountering air resistance, its kinetic energy is decreased.
In fact, part of the energy has been dissipated due to the air resistance.

The mechanical energy of the ball as it starts the motion is:
</span> $E=K = 100 J$
<span>where K is the kinetic energy, and where there is no potential energy since we use the initial height of the ball as reference level.
If there is no air resistance, this total energy is conserved, therefore when the ball returns to its original height, the kinetic energy will still be 100 J. However, because of the presence of the air resistance, the total mechanical energy is not conserved, and part of the total energy of the ball has been dissipated through the air. Therefore, when the ball returns to its original level, the kinetic energy will be less than 100 J.</span>

In magazine car tests an important indicator of performance is the zero to 60 mph (0 to 96.6 km/h) acceleration time. A time bel

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

2.73414 seconds

467622.66798 J

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

$v=60\times \dfrac{1609.34}{3600}=26.822\ m/s$

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{26.822^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=36.66766\ m$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 36.66766=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{36.66766\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=2.73414\ s$

or

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{26.822-0}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=2.73414\ s$

The time taken is 2.73414 seconds

The potential energy is given by

$U=mgh\\\Rightarrow U=1300\times 9.81\times 36.66766\\\Rightarrow U=467622.66798\ J$

The change in potential energy is 467622.66798 J

Can you explain that gravity pulls us to the Earth & can you calculate weight from masses on both on Earth and other planets

schepotkina [342]

I don't actually understand what your question is, but I'll dance around the subject
for a while, and hope that you get something out of it.

-- The effect of gravity is: There's a <em>pair</em> of forces, <em>in both directions</em>, between
every two masses.

-- The strength of the force depends on the <em>product</em> of the masses, so it doesn't matter whether there's a big one and a small one, or whether they're nearly equal.
It's the product that counts. Bigger product ==> stronger force, in direct proportion.

-- The strength of the forces also depends on the distance between the objects' centers. More distance => weaker force. Actually, (more distance)² ==> weaker force.

-- The forces are <em>equal in both directions</em>. Your weight on Earth is exactly equal to
the Earth's weight on you. You can prove that. Turn your bathroom scale face down
and stand on it. Now it's measuring the force that attracts the Earth toward you.
If you put a little mirror down under the numbers, you'll see that it's the same as
the force that attracts you toward the Earth when the scale is right-side-up.

-- When you (or a ball) are up on the roof and step off, the force of gravity that pulls
you (or the ball) toward the Earth causes you (or the ball) to accelerate (fall) toward the Earth.
Also, the force that attracts the Earth toward you (or the ball) causes the Earth to accelerate (fall) toward you (or the ball).
The forces are equal. But since the Earth has more mass than you have, you accelerate toward the Earth faster than the Earth accelerates toward you.

-- This works exactly the same for every pair of masses in the universe. Gravity
is everywhere. You can't turn it off, and you can't shield anything from it.

-- Sometimes you'll hear about some mysterious way to "defy gravity". It's not possible to 'defy' gravity, but since we know that it's there, we can work with it.
If we want to move something in the opposite direction from where gravity is pulling it, all we need to do is provide a force in that direction that's stronger than the force of gravity.
I know that sounds complicated, so here are a few examples of how we do it:
-- use arm-muscle force to pick a book UP off the table
-- use leg-muscle force to move your whole body UP the stairs
-- use buoyant force to LIFT a helium balloon or a hot-air balloon
-- use the force of air resistance to LIFT an airplane.

-- The weight of 1 kilogram of mass on or near the Earth is 9.8 newtons. (That's
about 2.205 pounds). The same kilogram of mass has different weights on other planets. Wherever it is, we only know one of the masses ... the kilogram. In order
to figure out what it weighs there, we need to know the mass of the planet, and
the distance between the kilogram and the center of the planet.

I hope I told you something that you were actually looking for.
