Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c) K.E. = 21.168 J
(d) 
Explanation:
Given:
- mass of a block, M = 3.6 kg
- initial velocity of the block,

- constant downward acceleration,

That a constant upward acceleration of
is applied in the presence of gravity.
∴
- height through which the block falls, d = 4.2 m
(a)
Force by the cord on the block,



∴Work by the cord on the block,


We take -ve sign because the direction of force and the displacement are opposite to each other.

(b)
Force on the block due to gravity:

∵the gravity is naturally a constant and we cannot change it


∴Work by the gravity on the block,



(c)
Kinetic energy of the block will be equal to the net work done i.e. sum of the two works.
mathematically:


K.E. = 21.168 J
(d)
From the equation of motion:

putting the respective values:

is the speed when the block has fallen 4.2 meters.
Speed is distance over time, learn that formula and look at the image
Answer:
Impulse = 80Ns
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 3kg
Force = 20N
Time = 4 seconds
To find the impulse experienced by the object;
Impulse = force * time
Impulse = 20*4
Impulse = 80Ns
Therefore, the impulse experienced by the object is 80 Newton-seconds.
<span>The unknown substance is silver.
I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so
273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL
Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following:
10.07 Actinium
10.22 Molybdenum
10.5 Silver
11.35 Lead
And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>
