You're using a wedge to split a log. you are hitting the wedge with a large hammer to drive it into the log. it takes a force of

1900 n to push the wedge into the wood. if the wedge moves 0.23 m into the log, how much work have you done on the wedge?

The work performed on an object is the force multiplied by the distance it is moved, provided the movement is parallel to the force.  Since that is the case here, we can get the work by W=Fd=1900N x 0.23m = 437J.  This energy is used to split the wood.

Answer: 437 J

Work done can be defined as the product of force and displacement. It is the work required to move an object to certain distance using a certain force.

work=force\times displacement

It is given that:

Force=1900 N

Displacement=0.23 m

Then, work=1900N\times 0.23m = 437 N-m=437J

Hence, the work done on the wedge to drive it into log is 437 J

In a building with 10.000 cubic feet where the air changes every two hours, what the rate of air change? A. 167.7 cfm B. 83.3 cf
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Flow rate of air is given as 83.33 cubic feet per minute

Explanation:

As we know that total volume of the air flow is given as

V = 10,000 cubic feet

also we know that total time is

t = 2 hours = 120 min

now we have flow rate given as

Q = \frac{V}{t}

Q = \frac{10000}{120}

Q = 83.3 cf/m

Think Critically Suppose your teacher gave you a slide of an unknown cell. How would you tell whether the cell was from an anima
topjm [15]

Answer:

You will be able to tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant through the knowledge of difference between plants and animal cells.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the simplest bit of living matter which exhibits a variety of shapes and sizes and that can exist independently.

When a slide of an unknown cell is studied under a microscope, different cell structures would be observed which would be used to conclude if the cell on the slide is a plant or animal cell.

The following features are observed in a plant cell:

--> cellulose cell wall is present

--> Chloroplast is present

--> A large central vacuole is present

--> Centriole is absent

The following features are observed in animal cell:

--> Cellulose cell wall is absent

--> Chloroplast is absent

--> Small vacuoles is present

--> Centriole is present

The difference between a plant and an animal cell can be seen from the features above and a clear knowledge of this will help the student tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant.
