The first statement is true, because the US worker can produce 10 more caps in the same amount of time as the French worker, the US has a comparative advantage when making caps.

Explanation :

It is considered that a US worker can produce 50 caps per hour or 1 sweater per hour and a French worker can produce 40 caps per hour and 2 sweaters per hour.

In one hour, A US worker can produce either 50 caps or 1 sweater.

While in one hour a French worker can produce 40 caps and 2 sweaters.

In this case, the efficiency and production rate is not given. So, we can't compare this scenario.

Hence, the correct option is (c) " Neither country has a comparative advantage producing either good ".

The amplitude of the electric field for a certain type of electromagnetic wave is 570 N/C. What is the amplitude of the magnetic
vesna_86 [32]

Given Information:  

Amplitude of the electric field = E =  570 N/C

Speed of light = c = 3.0x10⁸ m/s

Required Information:  

Amplitude of the magnetic field = ?

Answer:

Amplitude of the magnetic field =  1.90x10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

The relation between the amplitude of the electric field and magnetic field is given by

B = E/c

Where c is the speed of light

B = 570/3.0x10⁸

B = 1.90x10⁻⁶ T

Therefore, the amplitude of magnetic field is 1.90x10⁻⁶ T

A projectile is launched in the horizontal direction. It travels 2.050 m horizontally while it falls 0.450 m vertically, and it
kari74 [83]

Answer:

0.303s

Explanation:

horizontal distance travel = 2.050 m, vertical distance travel = 0.45 m

Using equation of linear motion

Sy = Uy t + 1/2 gt² Uy is the inital vertical component of the velocity, t is the time taken for the vertical motion in seconds, and S is the vertical distance traveled, taken downward vertical motion as negative

-0.45 = 0 - 0.5 × 9.81×t²

0.45 / (0.5 × 9.81) = t²

t = √0.0917 = 0.303 s

Suppose the initial position of an object is zero, the starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s. The object
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line

Explanation:

In this case, the object moves with constant acceleration. Initial speed of the object is 0.

Equation of kinematics :

v = u +at

v = at

v is directly proportional to time. If means that the graph is straight line passing through origin. We know that area under v-t graph gives displacement. So, the correct option is (c).

Orlov [11]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>The energy of a system always remains constant as it can be converted from one type two another type. It can never be lost or created.</u></em>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Lets take an example of the boy riding a bicycle.

The boy is using the biochemical energy in his body to run the pedals up and down in a cycle form.

The biochemical energy is converted into the potential energy in the pedal.

As the pedal moves, it gives energy to move the wheels of the cycle and consequently the cycle will move forward.

Hence the potential energy is converted into the kinetic energy.

If the road is not clear, a lot of energy is needed to move the wheels or cycle as compared to clear road. Because some of the energy will be converted into heat during friction.
