Answer:

Explanation:

Now

Look at it this way. This box is in equilibrium... Meaning forces around balanced out.

Now...

The Earth's pull on it is 98N

What Minimum external forces is needed to pick this up....

Now... The Minimum Force is 98N

Why?

Since This Box is under the influence of gravity...

Gravity is acting as a resistance

If you apply a force less than 98N... Let's say 50N on this box... It won't budge because your applied force is less than the resisting force on it(98N).

So We need a force ≥98. So the least force is 98N. Nothing below this will move the Box

Answer 98N.

irinina [24]

Answer:

A. The photographer will get to the jeep before the rhinocerous

Explanation:

Δv =  Δd/Δt

we can rearrange for time

Δt = Δd/Δv

For the photographer:

Distance is 10m and moves at 6m/s

Δt = 10m/6m/s

Δt = 1.67s

For the rhinocerous

Distance is 16m and moves at 8m/s

Δt = 16m/8m/s

Δt = 2.00s

The distances were to get to the jeep, the photographer makes it to the jeep in a shorter amount of time than the rhino

iragen [17]

Answer:

PE=4900J

Hope it helps please mark me as brainliest

Explanation:

P.E=m×g×h

Given m = 50 Kg , h = 10 m.

P.E=50×10×9.8

P.E=50×98=4900J

Hence increase in potential energy is 4900J.
