3 0

Answer:

W = 0

Explanation:

As the satellite moves in a circle the force is perpendicular to the path, therefore the work that is defined by

      W = F. r = f r cos θ

Since the force and the radius are perpendicular, the angle θ = 90º and the cosine 90 = 0, therefore there is no work for the circular motion.

W = 0

you push a sled of mass 15 kg across the snow with a force of 180 N for a distance of 2.5 m. There is no friction. if the sled s
Oxana [17]
<span>7.7 m/s First, determine the acceleration you subject the sled to. You have a mass of 15 kg being subjected to a force of 180 N, so 180 N / 15 kg = 180 (kg m)/s^2 / 15 kg = 12 m/s^2 Now determine how long you pushed it. For constant acceleration the equation is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substitute the known values getting, 2.5 m = 0.5 12 m/s^2 T^2 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 Solve for T 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 0.41667 s^2 = T^2 0.645497224 s = T Now to get the velocity, multiply the time by the acceleration, giving 0.645497224 s * 12 m/s^2 = 7.745966692 m/s After rounding to 2 significant figures, you get 7.7 m/s</span>
