A 150-kg safe on frictionless casters is being raised 1.20 m to the bed of a truck using planks 4.00 m long. The force needed to push the safe up is

441 N

An 800-kg car moving at 80 km/h overtakes a 1200-kg car moving at 40 km/h in the same direction. If the two cars stick together, the wreckage has an initial speed of

56 km/h.

Six kJ of work is used to lift an object to a height of 100 m. The object's approximate mass is

6 kg

The mass equivalent of 6.0 MJ is

6.7 × 10-11 kg.

A sedentary person requires about 6 million J of energy per day. This rate of energy consumption is equivalent to about

70W

8 km/h

According to the general theory of relativity, gravitation

is a distortion in space-time.

When the speed of an object is doubled,

its momentum is doubled
