4 0

Answer:

15000N/m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight  = 450N

Total area  = 0.03m²  

Unknown:

Pressure under her feet  = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body.

  Pressure  = \frac{Force }{Area}  

Weight is a type of force;

    Pressure  = \frac{450}{0.03}   = 15000N/m²

How is acceleration related to force when mass is constant, according to Newton's second law of motion?
kherson [118]

Answer:

According to Newton's second law of motion, acceleration is directly proportional to force. As the force increases (when mass is constant), the acceleration increases. This can be shown in the following formula.

f = ma

a =  \frac{f}{m}

f = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Which statement is true about a planet’s orbital motion?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Explanation:

The gravitational force is responsible for the orbital motion of the planet, satellite, artificial satellite, and other heavenly bodies in outer space.

When an object is applied with a velocity that is equal to the velocity of the orbit at that location, the body continues to move forward. And, this motion is balanced by the gravitational pull of the second object.

The orbiting body experience a centripetal force that is equal to the gravitational force of the second object towards the body.

The velocity of the orbit is given by the relation,

                                    V = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R + h} }

Where

                   V - velocity of the orbit at a height h from the surface

                    R - Radius of the second object

                    G - Gravitational constant

                    h - height from the surface

The body will be in orbital motion when its kinetic motion is balanced by gravitational force.

                         1/2 mV^{2} = GMm/R

Hence, the orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

You are raising up a big bucket of water from a 25.9 m deep well. The combined mass of the water and the bucket is 13.9 kg. The
Mars2501 [29]

The total work done is  5980 Joules and the power expended is 57 Watts.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The work done is the work done in the gravitational field as the bucket is raised up Thus work required to remove the bucket Wb;

Wb = 13.9 kg * 25.9 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3530 Joules

Height of the center of mass of chain = 25.9 / 2 = 12.95 m  

Work done by the chain Wc;

Wc = 12.95 * 19.3 * 9.8 = 2450 Joules  

Total work = 3530 + 2450 = 5980 Joules

Power expended = W / t = 5980 J / 105 sec = 57 J/s = 57 Watts

A window in a skyscraper has a surface area of 3.50 m^2. Wind rushes by the outside of the window at 17.4 m/s, while inside the
Mariana [72]

The difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

The given data in the problem is;

dP is the change in the presure=?

Using Bernoulli's Theorem;

\rm  \rho\frac{V^2_{12}}{2} +P_1= \rho \frac{V^2_{22}}{2} +P_2 \\\\\ P_2-P_1=\rho \frac{v_2^2-v_1^2}{2} \\\\  P_2-P_1= 1.21 \times \frac{17.4^2-0}{2} \\\\  \triangle p=369.36 \ N/m^2

Hence, the difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²
