Work = (force) x (distance)

The worker does  (40N) x (4m) = 160 joules of work.

Friction eats up    (27N) x (4m) = 108 joules of that energy,
                                                         generating 108  joules of heat.                         

The remaining    (160J - 108J) = 52 joules of energy moves the box.

Masses A and B rest on very light pistons that enclose a fluid.There is no friction between the pistons and the cylinders they f
RSB [31]

Answer:

D)Not enough information

Explanation:

According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:

p_A = p_B

Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write

\frac{F_A}{A_A}=\frac{F_B}{A_B}

The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: F=W=mg, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes

\frac{m_A g}{A_A}=\frac{m_B g}{A_B}

Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:

\frac{V_A d_A g}{A_A}=\frac{V_B d_B g}{A_B}

We also know that A_B = 2.0 m^2\\A_A = 1.0 m^2

So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):

\frac{V_A d_A}{1}=\frac{V_B d_B}{2}

\frac{d_A}{d_B}=\frac{V_B}{2V_A}

We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: V_B > V_A. However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.

The Heaviside function H is defined by H(t)={0 if t<0, 1 if t≥0 It is used in the study of electric circuits to represent the
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

Explanation:

The heaviside function is defined as:

H(t) =1 \quad t\geq 0\\H(t) =0 \quad t

so we see that the Heaviside function "switches on" whent=0, and remains switched on when t>0

If we want our heaviside function to switch on when t=5, we need the argument to the heaviside function to be 0 when t=5

Thus we define a function f:

f(t) = H(t-5)

The -5 term inside the heaviside function makes sure to displace the function 5 units to the right.

Now we just need to add a scale up factor of 240 V, because thats the voltage applied after the heaviside function switches on. (H(t-5) =1 when t\geq 5, so it becomes just a 1, which we can safely ignore.)

Therefore our final result is:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

I have made a sketch for you, and added it as attachment.
