You and a friend each carry identical boxes from the first floor of a building to a room located on the second floor, farther do

wn the hall. You choose to carry the box first up the stairs, and then down the hall to the room. Your friend carries it down the hall on the first floor, then up a different stairwell to the second floor. How do the amounts of work done by the two of you on your boxes compare?'

Answer:

Work done in both the cases will be same

Explanation:

As we know that the work done against gravity is given as

W = F_g .d

here we know that gravitational force is a conservative force and the work done against gravitational force is independent of the path

So here the work done by person to move the object between two different heights will be independent of the path they choose

So for the first person and second person will be same in both the cases because the height through which the boxes are transferred will be same in both the cases

A wave with 2.0 m amplitude has a frequency of 500 Hz is travelling at a speed of 200 m/s. What is the wavelength?
Serggg [28]

Answer: 0.4m

Explanation:

Given that:

Amplitude of wave = 2.0 m

Wavelength (λ)= ?

Frequency F = 500Hz

Speed V = 200 m/s

The wavelength is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ.

So, apply the formula:

Wavespeed V= Frequency F xwavelength λ

200m/s = 500Hz x λ

λ = 200m/s / 500Hz

λ = 0.4m

Thus, the wavelength is 0.4 metres

Waves begin to "feel bottom" when the depth of water is
LekaFEV [45]
I think the correct answer would be one half the wavelength. Waves would "feel bottom" when the water is at the depth of 0.5 of the wavelength. "Feel bottom" is a term used to describe that the depth of water affects the wave properties. Hope this answers the question.

¿Qué características debe tener el movimiento de una persona para que el valor del desplazamiento sea igual al de la distancia r
SIZIF [17.4K]

Explanation:

What characteristics must the movement of a person have so that the value of the displacement is equal to the distance traveled?

Displacement is equal to the shortest path covered by an object. It is given by the difference of final position and the initial position.

Distance is equal to the total path covered by an object during the journey.

When an object moves in a straight line path, in this case, the displacement is equal to the distance traveled.
