The summit of Mount Everest is 8848.0 m above sea level, making it the highest summit on Earth. In 1953, Edmund Hillary was the

first person to reach the summit. Suppose upon reaching there, Hillary slid a rock with a 45.0 g mass down the side of the mountain. If the rock’s speed was 27.0 m/s when it was 8806.0 m above sea level, how much work was done on the rock by air resistance?

The work done on the rock by air resistance is 39019.68 J

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Mass (m) = 45 g
  • Velocity (v) = 27 m/s
  • Height (h) = 8848 m
  • Work done =?

<h3>Definition of work </h3>

Work is simply defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force.

Work = Force × distance

From the question given above, we can see that height is involved. Thus,

Work = potential energy

Potential energy = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g) × height (h)

Potential energy = mgh

Therefore,

Work = mgh

With the above formula, we can obtain the work done.

<h3>How to determine the work done </h3>
  • Mass (m) = 45 g = 45 / 1000 = 0.45 Kg
  • Height (h) = 8848 m
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Work done =?

Work = mgh

Work = 0.45 × 9.8 × 8848

Work = 39019.68 J

Think of a time where you have observed someone's behavior and been encouraged to do the same. What did you do? Was it a good or
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

i'm not sure if you are asking as a  personal question or a book question so i'm taking it personal.

Explanation:

I was doing a simple task that was handed to me to test my responsibility and I agreed (knowing i am responsible :3). my first thought was "man , this is easy!" but then i started seeing the other kids slaking off and quiting their tasks. I thought that was against the rules, but then i saw my bff doing it too and i thought "this should be ok then!" so i did the same. other kids where still doing it. the teacher came, saw the ones still working and smiled... but when the teacher looked at the ones slaking off omg... his face was like * im gonna kill yall* we took one big gulp and whined. the teacher awarded the ones who completed the task... the others , we had to do our original task but doubled... for 3 weeks!!! it was awful!!!

I WOULD NEVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!

If your friend drops a chocolate bar to you from a height of 5.0 m above your hands,
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

<h3>1.01 s</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion S = ut+1/2gt² to solve the problem where;

u is the initial velocity of the chocolate = 0m/s

t is the time taken

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

S is the height of fall = 5.0m

Substituting the given parameter into the formula to get the time t we have;

5 = 0(t)+1/2(9.81)t²

5 = 4.905t²

t² = 5/4.905

t² = 1.019

t = √1.019

t = 1.009 secs

<em>Hence it will take 1.01 secs for me to catch the chocolate bar</em>
