Work is done when a force is applied to an object moves that object. the work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object
Svetllana [295]3 years ago

Answer:

Work done is the product of the force applied on a body or object and the distance covered.

Explanation:

Work done = F x d

Where F is force measured in newton and d is the distance covered measured in metres.

A boat of mass 225 kg drifts along a river at a speed of 21 m/s to the west. what impulse is required to decrease the speed of t
zzz [600]
The impulse required to decrease the speed of the boat is equal to the variation of momentum of the boat:
J=\Delta p=m \Delta v
where
m=225 kg is the mass of the boat
\Delta v=v_f-v_i=15 m/s-21 m/s=-6 m/s is the variation of velocity of the boat
By substituting the numbers into the first equation, we find the impulse:
J=m\Delta v=(225 kg)(-6 m/s)=-1350 N s
and the negative sign means the direction of the impulse is against the direction of motion of the boat.

Which formulas have been correctly rearranged to solve for radius? Check all that apply. r = GM central/v^2 r =fcm/v^2 r =ac/v^2
jek_recluse [69]

The orbital radius is: r=\frac{GM}{v^2}

Explanation:

The problem is asking to find the radius of the orbit of a satellite around a planet, given the orbital speed of the satellite.

For a satellite in orbit around a planet, the gravitational force provides the required centripetal force to keep it in circular motion, therefore we can write:

\frac{GMm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the satellite

r is the radius of the orbit

v is the speed of the satellite

Re-arranging the equation, we find:

\frac{GM}{r}=v^2\\r=\frac{GM}{v^2}

The presently accepted value of the hubble constant gives an age of
koban [17]

Answer:

14 billion years

Explanation:

The Hubble – Lemaître law, previously called the Hubble law, is a law of physics that states that the redshift of a galaxy is proportional to the distance it is, which is the same as, the further one galaxy is found from another, more quickly it seems to move away from it.

The Hubble constant is the value that measures the rate at which the expansion speed of the Universe varies with distance, and is one of the fundamental parameters of the Universe and allows, in particular, to determine the age of the Universe as we will see.
