Work = (force) x (distance)
When a force of 150 N pushes through a distance of 13 meters,
it does
Work = (150 N) x (13 m) = 1,950 joules .
Answer:
Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg
Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)
Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground
v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s
KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules
One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
Answer:
light is an example of a wave that is not mechanical .
it is different as it does not need material medium for its propagation
Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Total distance = (77km + 66km) = 143 kilometers
Time to cover the distance = 2 hours
Average speed = (143 km) / (2 hours) = 71.5 km per hour
