Answer:

164.87 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done (W) = mghcosθ........................ Equation 1

Where m = mass of the box, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity, θ = angle to the vertical

Given: m = 25 kg, h = 2.6 meters, θ = 75°.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these value into equation 1

W = 25×9.8×2.6×cos75°

W = 164.87 J.

A person hears the echo of his own voice from a distant hill after 2 seconds. How far away is the person from the hill, if the s
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 330 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound V is defined as the distance traveled by the sound wave d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=330 m/s is the speed of sound  

t=\frac{2 s}{2}=1 s is half the time the sound wave travels since the person speaks, the sound wave hits the hill and then returns to the person again  as an echo

d is the distance between the person and the hill

So, we have to find d:

d=Vt

d=(330 m/s)(1 s)

Finally:

d=330 m

In an experiment performed in a space station, a force of 74 N causes an object to have an acceleration equal to 9 m/s2. What is
Stells [14]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.2 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{74}{9}  \\  = 8.222222...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.2 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

The Earth's escape speed (the speed you need to get away forever) is about 40,000 kilometers per hour. Escape speed depends on t
Anvisha [2.4K]

The Moon s escape speed will be smaller than Earth's.

  • What is escape speed:

The minimum speed that is required for an object to free itself from the gravitational force exerted by a massive object.

The formula of escape speed is

  • v = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

where

v is escape velocity

G is universal gravitational constant

M is mass of the body to be escaped from

r is distance from the center of the mass

we can say that,

Escape speed depends on the gravity of the object trying to hold the spacecraft from escaping.

we know that,

The Moon's surface gravity is about 1/6th as powerful or about 1.6 meters per second per second.

since, v ∝ g

The Moon s escape speed will be smaller than Earth's.

The components of a 15 meters per second velocity at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal are?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x-component of velocity: 7.5 m/s

y-component of velocity: 13 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is pure trigonometry. Assuming you know trig, there are only a couple of steps to solving this problem. First, split the velocity into components; recall that any vector not directed along an axis has x and y components. Then, remember that sinΘ = opposite/hypotenuse. Applying this to your scenario, you get sin60° = vy/15. Multiplying this out gives you vy=15sin60. Put this into a calculator (make sure it's set to degree mode because the angle in this problem is in degrees) and you should get 12.99, which you can round up to 13 m/s. This is the velocity in the y-direction.

The procedure to find the x-velocity is very similar, but instead of using sine, we will use the cosine of theta. Recall that cosΘ=adjacent/hypotenuse. Once again plugging this scenario's numbers into that, you end up with cos60 = vₓ/15. Multiplying this out gives you vₓ = 15cos60. Once again, plug this into your calculator. 7.5 m/s should be your answer. This is the velocity in the x-direction.

By the way, a quick way to find the components of a vector, whether it's velocity, force, or whatever else, is to use these functions. Generally, if the vector points somewhere that's not along an axis, you can use this rule. The x-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*cosΘ and the y-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*sinΘ.
