Energy and Work have the same unit of measurement which is Joules in SI units.

Explanation:

A Joule of Work is said to be done on an object when energy is transferred to that particular object.
If two objects are involved, when one object transfers energy onto the second, a joule of work is said to be done by the first object.
Work is also the application of force on an object over a distance. So Work = Force × Displacement
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is in 2 forms - kinetic and potential.
Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object while potential energy is known as the energy that is stored within an object.
Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²
Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height
Both energy and work are measured in Joules.

Answer:

d = 2021.6 km

Explanation:

We can solve this distance exercise with vectors, the easiest method s to find the components of the position of each plane and then use the Pythagorean theorem to find distance between them

Airplane 1

Height y₁ = 800m

Angle θ = 25°

cos 25 = x / r

sin 25 = z / r

x₁ = r cos 20

z₁ = r sin 25

x₁ = 18 103 cos 25 = 16,314 103 m = 16314 m

z₁ = 18 103 sin 25 = 7,607 103 m= 7607 m

2 plane

Height y₂ = 1100 m

Angle θ = 20°

x₂ = 20 103 cos 25 = 18.126 103 m = 18126 m

z₂ = 20 103 without 25 = 8.452 103 m = 8452 m

The distance between the planes using the Pythagorean Theorem is

d² = (x₂-x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)² + (z₂-z₁)²2

Let's calculate

d² = (18126-16314)² + (1100-800)² + (8452-7607)²

d² = 3,283 106 +9 104 + 7,140 105

d² = (328.3 + 9 + 71.40) 10⁴

d = √(408.7 10⁴)

d = 20,216 10² m

d = 2021.6 km

Levart [38]

Answer:

Coefficient of static friction will be equal to 0.642

Explanation:

We have given acceleration $a=6.3m/sec^2$

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We have to find the coefficient of static friction between truck and a cabinet will

We know that acceleration is equal to $a=\mu g$ , here $\mu$ is coefficient of static friction and g is acceleration due to gravity

So $\mu =\frac{a}{g}=\frac{6.3}{9.8}=0.642$

So coefficient of static friction will be equal to 0.642

If a cart of 10 kg mass has a force of 5 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration? m/s2

Elza [17]

Answer:

= 0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportion to the rate of change of linear momentum.

Therefore; F = ma , where F is the Force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Thus; a = F/m

but; F = 5 N, and m = 10 kg

 a = 5 /10

= 0.5 m/s²
