We don't know.  It could be material that just couldn't condense
into a planet in that region. 

(In fact, the way the planets are arranged, it turns out that the
average distance from the sun to the center of the asteroid belt
is exactly where we would expect to find a planet.)

If the asteroids are actually material that failed to condense into a
planet, then the huge gravity of Jupiter might have been responsible
for keeping the material disturbed.

A horizontal force of 200N is applied to a 55kg cart across a 10m level surface. If the cart accelerates at 2.0m/s^2, then what
luda_lava [24]
1j=1newton*meter
force=mass*accel
200N=55x
200/55=3.636......
3.636...-2=1.636.....
1.636 is the deceleration resulting from friction hence the force of friction is 1.636*55=90newtons
90newtons*distance of 10 meters= 900 j of work done by friction

Determine the work that is being done by tension in pulling the box 178.0 cm along the table.
garri49 [273]
1. A force of 25.0 Newtons is applied so as to move a 5.0 kg mass a distance of 20.0 meters. How much work was done?
Ans. W = F × d = 25 N × 20.0 m = 50 J
2. A force of 120 N is applied to the front of a sled at an angle of 28.0 above the horizontal so as to pull the sled a distance of 165 meters. How much work was done by the applied force?
Ans. W = F •d cos  = 120 N • 165 m cos 28.0 = 17,482.36 J
3. A sled, which has a mass of 45.0 kg., is sitting on a horizontal surface. A force of 120 N is applied to a rope attached to the front of the sled such that the angle between the front of the sled and the horizontal is 35.0o. As a result of the application of this force the sled is pulled a distance of 500 meters at a relatively constant speed. How much work was done to this sled by the applied force?
Ans. W = F• d cos  = 120 N • 500 m • cos 35.0 = 49,149.12 N
4. A rubber stopper, which has a mass of 38.0 grams, is being swung in a horizontal circle which has a radius of R = 1.35 meters. The rubber stopper is measured to complete 10 revolutions in 8.25 seconds.
a. What is the speed of the rubber stopper?
Ans. v =  v = •  v = .•(. ) v = 10.29 m/s .
b. How much force must be applied to the string in order to keep this stopper moving in this circular path at a constant speed?
Ans. The Centripetal Force, Fc = • = . • (. /)= 29.76 N .
c. How far will the stopper move during a period of 25.0 seconds?
Ans. d = vt = 10.29 m/s25 s = 257.25 m
d. How much work is done on the stopper by the force applied by the string during 25.0 seconds?
Ans. 0 J. The force is towards the center and the distance is around the perimeter of the circle. They are at right angles to each other. For work to be done, the force has to be in the same direction as the displacement.
5. How much work would be required to lift a 12.0 kg mass up onto a table 1.15 meters high?
Ans. W = F• d = mg d = 12 kg  9.8 m/s2  1.15 m = 135.24 J

When 100.0 mL of ethyl alcohol is heated from 10.0 C to 35.0 C, about how much thermal energy
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Q = 194.34  J

Explanation:

Given that,

100.0 mL of ethyl alcohol is heated from 10.0 C to 35.0 C.

We need to find the amount of thermal energy  absorbed by the ethyl alcohol.

The density of ethyl alcohol is 0.790 g/mL.

The formula for heat absorbed is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\As, d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\So,\\Q=dVc\Delta T\\\\Q=0.79\times 100\times 2.46\\\\Q=194.34\ J

So, 194.34  J of thermal energy is absorbed by the ethyl alcohol.
