Tutorial – Work‚ Energy (Assume the acceleration due to gravity‚ g = 9.81 m/s2 ) 1. Calculate the work done when a force of 40 N pushes an object a distance of 500 m in the same direction as the force. 2. Calculate the work done when a mass is lifted vertically by a crane to a height of 5 m‚ the force required to lift the mass being 98 N. 3. A spring‚ initially in a relaxed state‚ is extended by 100 mm. Determine the work done by using a work diagram if the spring requires

Task 1: The Alouette-ISIS Satellite Program The Alouette satellite program was initiated in 1958 by Dr. John H. Chapman to understand the characteristics of radio communication in Canada. Researchers focused on the exploration of the ionosphere (the earth’s upper atmosphere)‚ namely the northern lights. This was not a predominant area of study for the space science effort of other countries and so allowed the Aloutte-ISIS program to make a major and unique contribution. The program commenced with

1. Is a temperature inversion more likely to form on a calm or a windy night? Why? A temperature inversion is most likely to form on a calm night. Windy nights are not ideal for an inversion to occur since an inversion is considered a stable layer of atmosphere as well as due to the wind mixing the air to even out the density‚ remembering cold air is denser than warm air so it will flow downhill and pool in a valley. 2. What are the various methods used to protect sensitive crops from damaging
