Force=12N
Work=9J

$\\ \sf\longmapsto W=Fd$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto d=\dfrac{W}{F}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto d=\dfrac{9}{12}=0.72m$

Answer:

Anne pushed a cart by 12 N.

● Force = 12 N

Work done is 9 J

● Work = 9 J

=> Work = Force × distance

$=> distance = \frac{work}{force}$

$=> distance = \frac{9}{2}$

$=> distance = 0.72m$

A girl of mass m1=60 kilograms springs from a trampoline with an initial upward velocity of v1=8.0 meters per second. At height

AleksandrR [38]

a) 5.0 m/s

This first part of the problem can be solved by using the conservation of energy. In fact, the mechanical energy of the girl just after she jumps is equal to her kinetic energy:

$E_i=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2$

where m1 = 60 kg is the girl's mass and v1 = 8.0 m/s is her initial velocity.

When she reaches the height of h = 2.0 m, her mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy:

$E_f = \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_2 ^2 + m_1 gh$

where v2 is the new speed of the girl (before grabbing the box), and h = 2.0m. Equalizing the two equations (because the mechanical energy is conserved), we find

$\frac{1}{2}m_1 v_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_2 ^2 + m_1 gh\\v_1^2 = v_2^2 +2gh\\v_2 = \sqrt{v_1^2 -2gh}=\sqrt{(8.0 m/s)^2-(2)(9.8 m/s^2)(2.0 m)}=5.0 m/s$

b) 4.0 m/s

After the girl grab the box, the total momentum of the system must be conserved. This means that the initial momentum of the girl must be equal to the total momentum of the girl+box after the girl catches the box:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 v_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v_3$

where m2 = 15 kg is the mass of the box. Solving the equation for v3, the combined velocity of the girl+box, we find

$v_3 = \frac{m_1 v_2}{m_1 + m_2}=\frac{(60 kg)(5.0 m/s)}{60 kg+15 kg}=4 m/s$

c) 2.8 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy. The total mechanical energy of the girl after she catches the box is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy:

$E_i = \frac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2) v_3^2 + (m_1+m_2)gh=\frac{1}{2}(75 kg)(4 m/s)^2+(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2.0m)=2070 J$

While at the maximum height, the speed is zero, so all the mechanical energy is just potential energy:

$E_f = (m_1 +m_2)gh_{max}$

where h_max is the maximum height. Equalizing the two expressions (because the mechanical energy must be conserved) and solving for h_max, we find

$E_i = (m_1+m_2)gh_{max}\\h_{max}=\frac{E_i}{(m_1+m_2)g}=\frac{2070 J}{(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=2.8 m$

Which part of the ear receives the signal from the eardrum?

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ossicles

Explanation:

Sound causes eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then passed on to the ossicles, which is made up of 3 small bones-- the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes are connected to the inner ear, specifically to the cochlea which transforms sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain.

A tree is 257 ft high. To the nearest tenth of a meter, how tall is it in meters? There are 3.28 ft in 1 m.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

Explanation:

We have

1 meter = 3.28 feet

That is

$1 ft = \frac{1}{3.28}=0.3048m$

Here height of tree = 257 ft

Height of tree = 257 x 0.3048 = 78.35 m

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

After striking both mirrors, at what angle relative to the incoming ray does the outgoing ray emerge?

PIT_PIT [208]

The appropriate response is Zero degrees. The beam will leave the two mirrors along a way parallel to the one it came in on. This is the guideline of the corner reflector, which is frequently utilized as a radar target. Take note of that the corner reflector utilizes three reflecting surfaces (that are set up at 90o from each other) rather than the two like are being utilized here. Wikipedia has a truly awesome drawing that shows this two-dimentional issue pleasantly. A moment connection is given to the article on the corner reflector and the 3-D angles.

Estimate the total number of bacteria and other prokaryotes in the biosphere of the earth. (assume the bacteria are found to a d

Fofino [41]

Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:

V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³

Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:

2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria
