Answer:

72Watts

Explanation:

Power = Force * distance/Time

Given the following

Force = 2.4 x 10^2 = 240N

distance = 1.2m

Time = 4.0secs

Substitute

Power = 240*1.2/4

Power = 60 * 1.2

Power = 72watts

Hence the power required to lift the box is 72Watts

1) 29.4 N

The force of gravity between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M and m are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the centres of mass of the two objects

In this problem, we have

M=5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

m=3.0 kg (mass of the box)

r=R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius, which is also the distance between the centres of mass of the two objects, since the box is located at Earth's surface)

Substituting into the equation, we find F:

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.97\cdot 10^{24})(3.0)}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=29.4 N

2) g=9.8 m/s^2

Let's now calculate the ratio F/m. We have:

F = 29.4 N

m = 3.0 kg

Subsituting, we find

\frac{F}{m}=\frac{29.4}{3.0}=9.8 N/kg = 9.8 m/s^2

This is called acceleration of gravity, and it is the acceleration at which every object falls near the Earth's surface. It is indicated with the symbol g.

We can prove that this is the acceleration of the object: in fact, according to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where a is the acceleration of the object. Re-arranging,

a=\frac{F}{m}

which is exactly equal to the quantity we have calculated above.

Answer:

1. F and G.

2. D

3. A and E.

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Acceleration: An increase in a body's velocity. An increase in a body's speed.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

2. Kinematics: a study of moving bodies i.e physical objects in motion.

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

3. Inertia: A tendency of a body to keep moving. A state of balance of forces on a body and the body remains either at rest or in uniform motion.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

4. Velocity: Fastness and direction of a body.

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

5. Reaction: an opposite force.

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move, etc.

1) The object slows down due to kinetic friction.
2) The coefficient of kinetic friction is higher on a carpet than on the bare floor, therefore the object would slow down quicker on the carpet
