In which situation is work being done?

Physics
1 answer:
Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: D. The force and displacement are in the same direction.

Explanation:

The Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path with distance d.  

Work is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy).

Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the displacement are <u>parallel</u>, the equation to calculate it is:  

W=(F)(d) (1)

When they are not parallel, both directions form an angle, let's call it \alpha. In that case the expression to calculate the Work is:  

W=Fdcos{\alpha} (2)

When the force and displacement are perpendicular to each other,\alpha=90\° and <u>no work is done</u>.

Vector A has magnitude of 15.0 m/s and is 75° counter-clockwise up from the x-axis. What are the x- and y-components of the vect
LiRa [457]

Answer:

x component 3.88 y- component 14.488

Explanation:

We have given a vector A which has a magnitude of 15 m/sec which is at 75° counter-clock wise ( anti-clock wise) from x -axis which is clearly shown in bellow figure

Now x-component will be 15 cos75°=3.8822 ( as it makes an angle of 75° with x-axis )

y- component will be 15 sin 75°=14.488

For verification the resultant of x and y component should be equal to 15

So resultant =\sqrt{14.488^2+3.88^2}=15

Determine qual é a carga elétrica de um corpo que possui 1 milhão de partículas?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

This can be translated to:

"find the electrical charge of a body that has 1 million of particles".

First, it will depend on the charge of the particles.

If all the particles have 1 electron more than protons, we will have that the charge of each particle is q = -e = -1.6*10^-19 C

Then the total charge of the body will be:

Q = 1,000,000*-1.6*10^-19 C = -1.6*10^-13 C

If we have the inverse case, where we in each particle we have one more proton than the number of electrons, the total charge will be the opposite of the one of before (because the charge of a proton is equal in magnitude but different in sign than the charge of an electron)

Q = 1.6*10^-13 C

But commonly, we will have a spectrum with the particles, where some of them have a positive charge and some of them will have a negative charge, so we will have a probability of charge that is peaked at Q = 0, this means that, in average, the charge of the particles is canceled by the interaction between them.

Estimate how much solar energy reaches the earth per year (in Joule).
Alexxandr [17]

Each hour 430 quintillion Joules of energy from the sun hits the Earth.

In a year it is very hard to determine because of the night and different light levels.

Below is an oscilloscope trace from an AC supply. Calculate the frequency of the supply if each horizontal division represents 0
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }

\boxed{frequency =20}
