Answer:

The answer for the missing word is "OPPOSITE"

Explanation:

Work done is the product of the force and displacements caused on an object. This work done can be either positive or negative. Work done is positive if the direction of force acting on an object is along the direction of motion of the object.

This is because, in this case the external force is helping the object to continue its state of motion.

However, in contrast, the workdone will be negative when the object stops or slows down the motion of the object if the force acting on the object is in completely opposite or partially opposite direction to the direction of motion of the object.

So, the answer is "OPPOSITE"

pav-90 [236]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass, M=3\times 10^{11}\ kg

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8\ m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity is given by :

g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}

r = distance from head

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{g}}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 3\times 10^{11}}{9.8}}

r = 1.42 m

So, at the distance of 1.42 meters from the head its gravitational pull on you match that of Earth's. Hence, this is the required solution.

The helium used to fill birthday balloons doesn’t come out of the air, but from. out of the ground. Some of the gas might escape
Vladimir79 [104]
Well , i think helium gas is present in the Earth Crust because metals found in the crust have nuclei that decay into another elements
One of this element that formed is Helium

An ideal gas is maintained at a constant pressure of 70,000 Pa during an isobaric process and its volume decreases by 0.2m^3. Wh
Svetach [21]

Answer:

c. -14,000

Explanation:

Workdone by gas is the product of the pressure and the volume where there is a change of volume.

If v1 is the initial volume of the gas and v2 is the final volume of gas, the work done

= p(v2 - v1)

where p is the pressure

and p = 70,000 Pa

Given that volume decrease by 0.2m^3, v2 - v1 = -0.2

Workdone = 70000 ( -0.2)

Workdone = -14,000 J

Option c. -14,000

Why is the unit of momentum called derived unit​
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

the SI unit of momentum is :- kg.ms-1

and we know that,

kinetic energy = 1/2 mv2

E=p2/2m

p=(2Em)1/2

so the derived units are (J.kg)1/2
