Using energy considerations, calculate the average force a 60.0-kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate from 2.00

to 8.00 m/s in a distance of 25.0 m, if he encounters a headwind that exerts an average force of 30.0 N against him.

Answer:

F = 102 N

Explanation:

ASSUMING the track is horizontal to avoid gravity potential energy considerations.

The work of the applied force must overcome friction work and increase the kinetic energy of the runner

F(d) = Ff(d) + ½m(v² - u²)

F = Ff + m(v² - u²) / 2d

F = 30.0 + 60.0(8.00² - 2.00²) / (2(25.0))

F = 102 N

State any two effects of gravitational force​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Connection to Big Idea about energy: Gravity creates gravitational potential energy. Gravitational energy relies on the masses of two bodies and their distance.

Connection to Big Idea about the universe: Gravitational force is exerted by all objects with mass throughout the Universe. It is what keeps the Earth and the planets in orbit around the Sun, and our Solar System in orbit around the centre of the Milky Way. Gravity is one of the forces involved in the birth of stars, their evolution and finally their death.

Connection to Big Idea about Earth: The gravitational force is responsible for many physical properties of Earth and consequently it affects the existence and the properties of living creatures on it. For instance, the existence, the chemical composition and the structure of Earth’s atmosphere was determined by Earth’s gravitational force.

If the masses of objects increase and their distance from each other remains the same, then the force of gravity between the two
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

the formula for the force of gravity depends  inversely of the distance and directly of the masses.

F_{G} =G\frac{M_{1} M_{2}}{R^{2}}

This means that if the masses increase and their distance remains the same the force will increase proportionally.
