Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d)
since its a one-dimensional problem it can be plugged straight into the equation above:

W = 2500N x 15 m
W =37500 J = 37.5 KJ

It would take 37.5 kilo-joules of energy

Hope this helps :P

A ball is tossed vertically upward. When it reaches its highest point (before falling back downward) Group of answer choices the
nignag [31]

Answer:

the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward

Explanation:

Is this exercise in kinematics

          v = v₀ - g t

where g is the acceleration of the ball, which is created by the attraction of the ball to the Earth.

At the highest point

velocity must be zero.

The acceleration depends on the Earth therefore it is constant at this point and with a downward direction.

The force of the earth on the ball is towards the center of the Earth, that is, down

all other alternatives are wrong

How much heat is absorbed by 41 g iron skillet when its temperature varies from 9°C. to 20°C
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

202.95J

Explanation:

The formulae for the energy absorbed by the iron skillet is;

q=m*c*ΔФ   where q=energy absorbed, m is mass of iron skillet, c is specific heat capacity and ΔФ is change in temperature

Given that;

m= 41g

ΔФ=20°-9°=11°

c=0.45 J/g°C

q= 41×0.45×11

q= 202.95 J

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. Please select the best
Fofino [41]
This statement is true. The greater the mass is in an object, it is indeed the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. That only mean that the mass of an object and its resistance to change of movement is directly proportional.

On a horizontal frictionless surface a mass M is attached to two light elastic strings both having length l and both made of the
EastWind [94]

Answer:

ω = √(2T / (mL))

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the mass.  There are two tension forces, one pulling down and left, the other pulling down and right.

The x-components of the tension forces cancel each other out, so the net force is in the y direction:

∑F = -2T sin θ, where θ is the angle from the horizontal.

For small angles, sin θ ≈ tan θ.

∑F = -2T tan θ

∑F = -2T (Δy / L)

(b) For a spring, the restoring force is F = -kx, and the frequency is ω = √(k/m).  (This is derived by solving a second order differential equation.)

In this case, k = 2T/L, so the frequency is:

ω = √((2T/L) / m)

ω = √(2T / (mL))
