Option (A) and option (D) are the correct answers.

Transverse waves and electromagnetic waves correctly describe the wave used by police , i.e. ultraviolet light.

<h3>What are transverse waves?</h3>

A transverse wave is an oscillating wave in physics that <u>advances in the opposite direction of its </u><u>oscillations</u>. A longitudinal wave, on the other hand, moves in the direction of its oscillations. Transverse waves <u>include </u><u>water</u><u> </u><u>waves</u>.

<h3>What are electromagnetic waves?</h3>

In terms of science, electromagnetic radiation is made up of electromagnetic field waves that are traveling through space while carrying radiant electromagnetic energy. It consists of X-rays, gamma rays, microwaves, infrared, light, and radio waves. These waves are all a component of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Why can friction make observing Newton's first law of motion difficult?
Kamila [148]
The law says things travel in a straight line at constant speed unless acted upon by a force.  But friction is a force but it can't be seen easily other than its effect, which is to bring the object to rest in seeming violation of the 1st law.

A force of constant magnitude pushes a box up a vertical surface, as shown in the figure.
Ray Of Light [21]

The work done on the box by the applied force is zero.

The work done by the force of gravity is 75.95 J

The work done on the box by the normal force is 75.95 J.

<h3>The given parameters:</h3>
  • Mass of the box, m = 3.1 kg
  • Distance moved by the box, d = 2.5 m
  • Coefficient of friction, = 0.35
  • Inclination of the force, θ = 30⁰

<h3>What is work - done?</h3>
  • Work is said to be done when the applied force moves an object to a certain distance

The work done on the box by the applied force is calculated as;

W = Fd cos(\theta)\\\\W = (ma)d \times cos(\theta)

where;

a is the acceleration of the box

The acceleration of the box is zero since the box moved at a constant speed.

W = (0) d \times cos(30)\\\\W = 0 \ J

The work done by the force of gravity is calculated as follows;

W = mg \times d\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5 \\\\W = 75.95 \ J

The work done on the box by the normal force is calculated as follows;

W = (F_n) \times d\\\\W = (mg + F sin\theta) \times d\\\\W = (mg + 0) \times d\\\\W = mgd\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5\\\\W = 75.95 \ J

Frank does 2400J of work in climbing a set of stairs. If he does the work in 6 seconds, what is his power output?
timurjin [86]
Power = Work Done / Time taken

         Where Work Done is Joules, and Time is in Seconds, Power is in Watts

            = 2400 J / 6 seconds

            = 400 Watts

The power output is 400 Watts.
