1. What is energy? What can an object with energy do?

Physics

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. Applying a force requires us to do work. After work has been done, energy has been transferred to the object, and the object will be moving with a new constant speed.

A 5kg block is pulled across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with a frictional force of 8 N opposing the motion. Draw a fo
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Net force on the block is 32 N.

Acceleration of the object is 6.4 m/s².

Explanation:

Let the acceleration of the object be a m/s².

Given:

Mass of the block is, m=5\ kg

Force of pull is, F=40\ N

Frictional force on the block is, f=8\ N

The free body diagram of the object is shown below.

From the figure, the net force in the forward direction is given as:

F_{net}=F-f=40-8=32\ N

Now, from Newton's second law of motion, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. So,

F_{net}=ma\\32=5a\\a=\frac{32}{5}=6.4\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the object in the forward direction is 6.4 m/s².

Calculate the pressure the fluid exerted on your diver. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 and the density of the water is
erica [24]

Complete question:

A diver is 10 m below the surface of water. Calculate the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 and the density of the water is 1000 kg/m3. Answer in units of Pa. Show your work.

Answer:

Tthe pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

Given;

density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³

diver's position below the surface of the water, h = 10 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Let the atmospheric pressure, P₀ = 101325 Pa

The pressure 10 m below the surface of the water is calculated as;

P =  P₀  + ρgh

P = 101325 Pa  +  (1000 x 9.8 x 10)Pa

P = 199325 Pa

P = 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa.

Therefore, the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa

Which scenario represents the strongest force? (Assume particles in all scenarios are the same distance apart.) a) Protons and n
Lana71 [14]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The force of attraction existent between the proton and neutron in the nucleus of an atom is extremely large. When the nucleus splits there is a large release of heat and energy larger than the force present in any of the other options listed.

A particular spiral galaxy can be approximated by a thin disk-like volume 62 Thousand Light Years in radius and 7 Hundred Light
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.

Explanation:

Radius of the spiral galaxy r = 62000 LY

Thickness of the galaxy h = 700 LY

Volume of the galaxy = πr²h

                                   = (3.14)(62000)²(700)

                                   = (3.14)(62)²(7)(10)⁸

                                   = 84568×10⁸

                                   = 8.45\times 10^{12} (LY)³

Since galaxy contains number of stars = 1078 billion stars ≈ 1.078\times 10^{12}

Now volume covered by each star of the galaxy = \frac{\text{Total volume of the galaxy}}{\text{Number of stars}}

= \frac{8.45\times 10^{12} }{1.078\times 10^{12}}

= 7.839 Light Years

Now the linear dimension across the volume

= (\text{Average volume per star})^{\frac{1}{3}}

= (7.839)^{\frac{1}{3}}

= 1.99 LY

≈ 2 Light Years

Therefore, approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.
