A) <span>Ivan does work when he lifts the basket

B) Work = Force * displacement
W = 20 * 2
W = 40 Joules

So, The Amount of work he does is 40 Joules

Hope this helps!</span>

Explanation :

It is given that,

Force acting on Ivan, $F=20\ N$

Height of the basket above the ground, s = 2 m

Work done in this case would be :

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

Where

$\theta$ is the angle between the force and the displacement and it is equal to 0.

So, $W=20\ N\times 2\ m$

$W=40\ J$

Ivan does work when he lifts the basket and it is equal to 40 J.

When he carries the basket 5 m across a room to place it on a shelf, then his weight is acting vertically downwards. The angle between the force and the displacement is now 90.

So, the work done he does is 0.

A person jumps out a fourth-story window 14 m above a firefighter safety net. The survivor stretches the net 1.8 m before coming

Monica [59]

Answer:

The deceleration is $a = - 76.27 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height above firefighter safety net is $H = 14 \ m$

The length by which the net is stretched is $s = 1.8 \ m$

From the law of energy conservation

$KE_T + PE_T = KE_B + PE_B$

Where $KE_T$ is the kinetic energy of the person before jumping which equal to zero(because to kinetic energy at maximum height )

and $PE_T$ is the potential energy of the before jumping which is mathematically represented at

$PE_T = mg H$

and $KE_B$ is the kinetic energy of the person just before landing on the safety net which is mathematically represented at

$KE_B = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

and $PE_B$ is the potential energy of the person as he lands on the safety net which has a value of zero (because it is converted to kinetic energy )

So the above equation becomes

$mgH = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{2 gH }$

substituting values

$v = 16.57 m/s$

Applying the equation o motion

$v_f = v + 2 a s$

Now the final velocity is zero because the person comes to rest

So

$0 = 16.57 + 2 * a * 1.8$

$a = - \frac{16.57^2 }{2 * 1.8}$

$a = - 76.27 m/s^2$

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

40kgm

Explanation:

∆p = m(v - u)

= 2(60 - 40)

= 2 × 20

= 40kgm/s

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Time=120seconds

Explanation:

S=300m

V=2.5m/s

t=?

V=S/t

t=S/V

What is air pressure?

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules

Explanation:

Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.

The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm

1 atm = 101325 Pa

As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.
