Gravity only determines the path in projectile motion
Answer:
a) 400.4Joules
b) 262.69Joules
Explanation:
Work is said to be done if the force applied to an object cause the object to move through a distance
Workdone = Force × Distance
Given
Force = 76N
Distance= 5.2m
Work done = 77 × 5.2
Work done = 400.4Joules
b) If the force is exerted at an angle of 41°
Work done = Fdsin theta
Work done = 77(5.2)sin41
Work done = 400.4sin41
Work done = 262.69Joules
Answer:
(a) 2.5 m/s
(b) 37.5 KJ
Explanation:
(a)
From the law of conservation of momentum, Initial momentum=Final momentum
and making 
the subject then
and since 
is initial velocity of car, value given as 4 m/s, 
is the initial velocity of the three cars stuck together, value given as 2 m/s and 
is the final velocity which is unknown. By substitution
(b)
Initial kinetic energy is given by
Final kinetic energy is given by
The energy lost is given by subtracting the final kinetic energy from the initial kinetic energy hence
Energy lost=350-312.5=37.5 KJ
"(1) a satellite moving around Earth in a circular <span>orbit" is the only option from the list that describes an object in equilibrium, since velocity and gravity are working together to keep the orbit constant. </span>
Answer:
We show added energy to a system as +Q or -W
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that, in an isolated system, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed;
Energy is added to the internal energy of a system as either work energy or heat energy as follows;
ΔU = Q - W
Therefore, when energy is added as heat energy to a system, we show the energy as positive Q (+Q), when energy is added to the system in the form of work, we show the energy as minus W (-W).
