A. How far does a 100-newton force have to move to do 1,000 joules

Aloiza [94]

Work done by a force is given as the product of force and the distance moved by the force.

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by the the force.

Work done = Force × distance

Thus, distance required by the 100 N force is given as:

Distance = work done/force

Distance = 1000/100 = 10 m

Distance to be moved is 10 m.

Force applied = work done/ distance

Force applied by the hoist = 500/2

Force applied by the hoist = 250 N

Distance moved in one push-up = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete after one push-up = 250 × 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete = 62.5 J

Distance moved by the force = 0 m

Work done = 500 × 0 = 0 N

Therefore, for work to be done, force has to move a distance.

An object weighs 60.0 kg on the surface of the earth. How much does it weigh 4R from the surface? (5R from the center)

Alecsey [184]

"60 kg" is not a weight. It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.

The weight of the object is

   (mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .

On the surface of the Earth,

   Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

      =    588 Newtons.

Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to 5R from the center, the gravity out there is

(1R/5R)² = (1/5)² = 1/25 = 0.04 of its value on the surface.

The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.

   (0.04) x (588 Newtons) = 23.52 Newtons.

Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.
___________________________________________

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink.
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.

What is the anomalous expansivity of water

salantis [7]

Answer:

The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4°C to 0°C, and it becomes less dense. The density becomes less and less as it freezes because molecules of water normally form open crystal structures when in solid form.
