Answer: The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Work is done when the force is applied to move an object to certain distance.

In the case of lifting a book, the work is done as the force is applied to lift the book. There will be displacement.

In the case of holding a brick, no work is done as the force is applied in this case but there is no displacement.

In the case of climbing stairs, work is done in climbing the stairs as the force is acting here. There will be displacement when the man will climb.

In the case of pushing a shopping cart, the work is done as the force is applied to a shopping cart. There will be displacement in forward direction.

Therefore, the correct answer is B.

The answer is B because you are not using force or energy as if you were if you were to lift or push something.

It is important for physicians to be Respectful of patient use of alternative therapies

Alternative therapies usually have not gain a scientific approval from the scientific community, but there are some therapies that show positive results even though it is still has not proved by studies or researches. So it's important for physicians to be respectful if the patient choose to do it

It is dangerous to stand near the railway leak when train passing by,why?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Because a person may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accident

Explanation:

According to Daniel Bernoulli's theorem, he was widely known as a Mathematician. He stated that due to the higher velocity of a moving train, there is higher kinetic energy in terms of volume around it, while the air pressure between the person and the train becomes lower.

As a result, a person near a moving train may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accidents that may lead to death.

If you pull horizontally on a desk with a force of 150 N and the desk doesn't move, the friction force must be 150 N. Now if you

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The friction force is 250 N

Explanation:

The desk is moving at constant velocity. This means that its acceleration is zero: a = 0. Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on the desk is equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

$\sum F=ma$

In this case, we know that the acceleration is zero: a = 0, so also the resultant of the forces must be zero:

$\sum F = 0$ (1)

We are only interested in the forces acting along the horizontal direction, since it is the direction of motion. There are two forces acting in this direction:

- the pull, forward, F = 250 N

- the friction force, backward, $F_f$
