Answer:

R = 98304.75 m = 98.3 km

Explanation:

The density of an object is given as the ratio between the mass of that object and the volume occupied by that object.

Density = Mass/Volume

Now, it is given that the density of Earth has become:

Density = 1 x 10⁹ kg/m³

Mass = Mass of Earth (Constant) = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

Volume = 4/3πR³ (Volume of Sphere)

R = Radius of Earth = ?

Therefore,

1 x 10⁹ kg/m³ = (5.97 x 10²⁴ kg)/[4/3πR³]

4/3πR³ = (5.97 x 10²⁴ kg)/(1 x 10⁹ kg/m³)

R³ = (3/4)(5.97 x 10¹⁵ m³)/π

R = ∛[0.95 x 10¹⁵ m³]

<u>R = 98304.75 m = 98.3 km</u>

If a 12 kg cat is sitting 5 m up in a tree, how much PE does it have?
Helen [10]

Answer:

588 J

Explanation:

PE (potential energy) = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

mass = 12 kg

gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height = 5 m

PE = (12) x (9.8) x (5) = 588 J (Joules)

Please help me<br> the formula is E = P x t
Rainbow [258]

The battery doesn't 'use' power.  The battery <em>produces</em> the power that all the other electrical devices use.

If the starter motor is using 2,520 watts, then the battery is producing energy at the rate of 2,520 watts.  That means <em>2,520 Joules</em> of energy every second.

Thanks for giving us the formula.

E = P x t

Energy = Power x Time

Energy = (2,520 watts) x (1 second)

Energy = 2,520 Joules

A 54.0 kg ice skater is gliding along the ice, heading due north at 4.10 m/s . The ice has a small coefficient of static frictio
lesya [120]

Answer:

a. 2.668 m/s

b. 0.00494

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. As we know that

W = F\times d

KE = 0.5\times m\times v^2

As the wind does not move the skater to the east little work is performed in this direction. All the work goes in the direction of the N-S. And located in that direction the component of the Force.

F = 3.70 cos 45 = 2.62 N

W = F \times d = 2.62 N \times 100 m

W = 261.6 N\times m

We know that

KE1 = Initial kinetic energy

KE2 = kinetic energy following 100 m

The energy following 100 meters equivalent to the initial kinetic energy less the energy lost to the work performed by the wind on the skater.

So, the equation is

KE2 = KE1 - W

0.5 m\times v2^2 = 0.5 m\ v1^2 - W

Now solve for v2

v2 = \sqrt{v1^2 - {\frac{2W}{M}}}

= \sqrt{4.1 m/s)^2 - \frac{2 \times 261.6 N\times m}{54.0 kg}}

= 2.668 m/s

b. Now the minimum value of Ug is

As we know that

Ff = force of friction

Us = coefficient of static friction

N = Normal force = weight of skater

So,

Ff = Us\times N

Now solve for Us

= \frac{Ff}{N}

= \frac{3.70 N \times cos 45 }{54.0 kg \times 9.81 m/s^2}

= 0.00494

a chuck wagon with an initial velocity of 4 m/s and a mass of 35 kg gets a push with 350 joules of force. what is the wagon's fi
Kitty [74]

Answer:

the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the wagon, u = 4 m/s

mass of the wagon, m = 35 kg

energy applied to the wagon, E = 350 J

The final velocity of the wagon is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

m(v^2-u^2) = 2E\\\\v^2-u^2 = \frac{2E}{m} \\\\v^2 =  \frac{2E}{m}  + u^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}  + u^2} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2(350)}{35}  + (4)^2}\\\\v = 6 \ m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
