He should push it gently.
This is because the forces of resistance this situation are minimal, so the rock will not slow as it would on Earth. Kicking the rock may result in it travelling too fast and hitting something else, causing damage. Moreover, the rock could start rebounding off of surfaces and create havoc.

9. A 227 kg object is moved a distance of 2.4 m forward by a force. If 686 J of work is done on the object, what is the object’s
Korolek [52]

<em>1</em><em>.</em><em>259ms^2</em>

Explanation:

since, WORK DONE = FORCE*DISTANCE

AND, FORCE=MASS*ACCELERATION

SO, THE WORK DONE BECOMES=MASS*ACCELERATION*DISTANCE

ACCELERATION=WORK/(MASS*DISTANCE)

AND, WORK=686J

MASS=227kg

DISTANCE=2.4m

THEREFORE, ACCELERATION=686/(227*2.4)

=686/544.8

=1.259ms^2

Answer:

30 seconds

Explanation:

A = A02^-(t/hl)

--> ln(A/A0) = -(t/hl)ln2

solving for hl,

hl = -t x ln2 /ln(A/A0)

= -(60 min)xln2/ln(50/200)

= 0.5 min or 30 seconds

Which of the following statements is true about magnetic fields produced by current-carrying wires?
Anit [1.1K]
<span>The larger the current flowing in a wire, the stronger the magnetic field
is that surrounds the wire. 

That's why, if you want to make an electromagnet stronger, one way to
do it is to add another battery.  By increasing the voltage, you'll increase
the current flowing in the coils of wire, and the electromagnet will be stronger.</span>
