Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

$a = \frac{23 - 0}{5} = \frac{23}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A carpenter lifts a 10 kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5 m above the ground. What is the wood's potential energy on the carpe

Burka [1]

Answer:

The wood's potential energy on the carpenter's shoulder is 150 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the wood, m = 10 kg

height through which the wood was raised, h = 1.5 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²

The wood's potential energy on the carpenter's shoulder is calculated as;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 10 x 10 x 1.5

P.E = 150 J

Therefore, the wood's potential energy on the carpenter's shoulder is 150 J.

Suppose earth's mass increased but earth's diameter didn't change. Describe how the gravitational force between Earth and the ob

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

It increases proportionally

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Earth and an object on its surface is given by

$F=G\frac{Mm}{R^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the mass of the object

R is the Earth's radius

In this problem, the Earth's mass is increased, while the diameter (and therefore, the radius) doesn't change. From the equation, we see that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the Earth's mass: therefore, if the mass is increased, the force will increase as well by the same proportion (for example, if the mass is doubled, the force will double as well)

Given that two vectors A = 5i-7j-3k, B = -4i+4j-8k find A×B

WARRIOR [948]

$\textbf{A}×\textbf{B}= 68\hat{\textbf{i}} + 52\hat{\textbf{j}} - 8\hat{\textbf{k}}$

Explanation:

Given:

$\textbf{A} = 5\hat{\textbf{i}} - 7\hat{\textbf{j}} - 3\hat{\textbf{k}}$

$\textbf{B} = -4\hat{\textbf{i}} + 4\hat{\textbf{j}} - 8\hat{\textbf{k}}$

The cross product $\textbf{A}×\textbf{B}$ is given by

$\textbf{A}×\textbf{B} = \left|\begin{array}{ccc}\hat{\textbf{i}} & \hat{\textbf{j}} & \hat{\textbf{k}} \\\:\:5 & -7 & -3 \\ -4 & \:\:4 & -8 \\ \end{array}\right|$

$= \left|\begin{array}{cc}-7 & -3\\\:4 & -8\\ \end{array}\right|\:\hat{\textbf{i}}\:+\:\left|\begin{array}{cc}-3 & \:\:5\\-8 & -4\\ \end{array}\right|\:\hat{\textbf{j}}\:+\: \left|\begin{array}{cc}\:\:5 & -7\\-4 & \:\:4\\ \end{array}\right|\:\hat{\textbf{k}}$

$= 68\hat{\textbf{i}} + 52\hat{\textbf{j}} - 8\hat{\textbf{k}}$
