The kinetic energy of the body in definitive position is 4.24 J.

Explanation:

As per the work energy theorem, the work done on any system or object to move it from one position to another is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. In this case, the body weighing 2 kg is moved over an horizontal surface for a distance of 75 cm. As there will be frictional force acting on the body while moving over the surface. This frictional force multiplied by the distance the object is moved will give the work done on the body.

Frictional force = Coeffficent of friction × Normal force.

As the weight of the body is 2 kg, the normal force acting on it will be mass multiplied with acceleration due to gravity.

Frictional force = - 0.8×9.8 × 2 =-15.68 N

So the work done will be the product of frictional force with the displacement of 75 cm or 0.75 m.

Work done =  Frictional force × Displacement

Work done = -15.68×0.75 = -11.76 J.

So the work is done by the object.

If the kinetic energy of the body at starting is 16 J, then the kinetic energy of the body at definitive position will be obtained as below.

Work done = change in kinetic energy

-11.76 J = Final kinetic energy-16 J

Final Kinetic energy = - 11.76+16

Final kinetic energy = 4.24 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of the body in definitive position is 4.24 J.

Calculate the mass (in SI units) of (a) a 160 lb human being; (b) a 1.9 lb cockatoo. Calculate the weight (in English units) of
kondaur [170]

Explanation:

1. Force applied on an object is given by :

F = W = mg

(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb

g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²

m=\dfrac{F}{g}

m=\dfrac{160\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}

m = 5 kg

(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb

m=\dfrac{F}{g}

m=\dfrac{1.9\ lb}{32\ ft/s^2}

m = 0.059 kg

2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg

W=2300\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=73600\ lb

(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg

W=0.022\ kg\times 32\ ft/s^2=0.704\ lb

Hence, this is the required solution.

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Ray A = Incidence ray

Ray B = Reflected ray

Explanation:

From the law of reflection,

Normal: This is the line that makes an angle of 90° with the reflecting surface.

Ray A is the incidence ray: This is the ray that srikes the surface of a reflecting surface. The angle formed between the normal and the incidence ray is called the incidence angle

Ray B is the reflected ray: This is the ray leaves the surface of a reflecting surface. The angle formed between the reflected ray and the normal is called reflected angle
