Answer:

Zero work

Explanation:

Recall that work done on  an object is defined as the product of the net force applied to an object times the distance it travels in the same direction as the force.

Since in this case Jim used a given force to push a rock, but it didn't move, then he did zero work (because the distance moved is zero).

A 3 kg mass object is pushed 0.6 m into a spring with spring constant 210 N/m on a frictionless horizontal surface. Upon release
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of spring,m=3 kg

Distance moved by object,d=0.6 m

Spring constant,k=210N/m

Height,h=1.5 m

a.Work done  to compress the spring initially=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(210)(0.6)^2=37.8J

b.

By conservation law of energy

Initial energy of spring=Kinetic energy  of object

37.8=\frac{1}{2}(3)v^2

v^2=\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}

v=\sqrt{\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}}

v=5.02 m/s

c.Work done by friction on the incline,w_{friction}=P.E-spring \;energy

W_{friction}=3\times 9.8\times 1.5-37.8=6.3 J

The magnitude of the tidal force between the International Space Station (ISS) and a nearby astronaut on a spacewalk is approxim
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

F = 4.47 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

The expression they give for the strength of the tide is

      F = 2 G m M a / r³

Where G has a value of 6.67 10⁻¹¹ N m² / kg² and M which is the mass of the Earth is worth 5.98 10²⁴ kg

They ask us to perform the calculation

      F = 2 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 135  5.98 10²⁴ 13 / (6.79 10⁶)³

      F = 4.47 10⁻⁶ N

This force is directed in the single line at the astronaut's mass centers and the space station

10%) Problem 7: Water flows through a water hose at a rate of Q1 = 620 cm3/s, the diameter of the hose is d1 = 1.99 cm. A nozzle
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a) A_1 = \frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}

Explanation:

a) the cross-sectional area of the hose would be the square of radius times pi. And since the sectional radius is half of its diameter d. We can express the cross-sectional area A1 in term of diameter d1

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 = \pi (d_1/2)^2 = \frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}
