Potential energy = (weight) x (height)
After the car has been raised 2.5 meters, it has
(11,000) x (2.5) = 27,500 Joules
MORE potential energy than it had before it was lifted.
That's the energy that has to come from the work you do to lift it.
Since no mechanical process is ever 100% efficient, the work required
to accomplish this task is <em>at least 27,500 joules</em>.
ANSWER:
D) centripetal acceleration.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.
Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
Answer:
1.28 x 10^4 N
Explanation:
m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km
Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'
g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2
g' / g = {6400 / (6850)}^2
g' = 8.55 m/s^2
The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft
W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N
40
Because if you divide 3,600 by 90 it is equivalent to 40.
Hope this helps, have a blessed day :)
