The work done was done by friction to keep the crate from moving as the truck came to a stop is 20,000 J.

<h3>Work done by friction to prevent the crate from moving</h3>

The work done is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy.

W = K.E

W = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • m is mass of crate
  • v is speed of the crate with respect to the truck = 20 m/s

W = ¹/₂(100)(20²)

W = 20,000 J

Thus, the work done was done by friction to keep the crate from moving as the truck came to a stop is 20,000 J.

Classify the statements as correct or incorrect.
alexandr402 [8]

Explanation:

  • A thermometer does measure the temperature of a body and not the heat. It is known that temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy.

Therefore, the statement a thermometer measures  the average kinetic energy  of a substance is correct.

  • Heat is a form of energy as it can make a colder substance become hot and it moves from one place to another. Thus, the statement heat is a form of energy is correct.
  • Also, heat flows from hotter substance to colder substance. Hence, the statement heat flows from a colder  substance to a hotter  substance is correct.
  • Convection is a property of fluids or gases which makes less denser (hot) material to rise and more denser (colder) material to sink.

Therefore, the statement convection occurs only  in liquids and gases is correct.

  • All substances radiate heat is an incorrect statement. For example, a thermos bottle does not radiate heat.
  • Temperature of our body is about 98.4 degree celsius and hence we can conclude that the statement our body temperature is  always equal to the  temperature around us is incorrect.

Answer:

Fringe width = 21 mm

Explanation:

Fringe width is given by the formula

\beta = \frac{\Lambda L}{d}

here we know that

\Lambda = 564 nm

L = 4.0 m

d = 0.108 mm

now from above formula we will have

\beta = \frac{(564 \times 10^{-9})(4.0 m)}{0.108\times 10^{-3}}

\beta = 0.021 meter

so fringe width on the wall will be 21 mm

A dvd drive has a maximum speed of 72000 revolutions per minute. if a dvd has a diamter of 12 what is the linear speed
Brilliant_brown [7]
The question isn't clear enough, I think it ask us to calculate the linear speed of a point at the edge of the DVD.
Now let's imagine we're a point at the edge of the DVD, we're undergoing a circular motion. Each minute we will complete a circular track 7200 times, now we need to know the distance we travel each turn. The perimeter of the DVD, a circular object is:
P=2\pi.R
Know recall that:
v=\frac{d}{t}
We now need to know how much distance is traveled during a minute or 60 seconds:
D=7200\times 2\pi\times R
Finally we divide this result with t=60 seconds:
v=\frac{7200\times2\pi\times R}{60}&#10;\\&#10;R=\frac{12}{2}=6&#10;
v\approx 4523.89 \frac{units}{second}
Where the distance units were named units as the length unit is not specified in this exercise.<span />
