Calculate the amount of work done if you use a 100N force to push a 50kg box 5m across the kitchen floor.

2 answers:

6 0

So if the formula for work is force times displacement times cosine(theta), you'd plug in the numbers

100x5 (since there's no angle in the problem, cosine(theta) isn't used

100x5 = 500

So the answer would be B.

Hope that helps!

We know, W = F * s
Here, F = 100 N
s = 5 m

Substitute their values,
W = 100 * 5
W = 500 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

Identify a situation in which you would want to have a high

Andreyy89

Answer: A voltmeter must have a high resistance where as an ammeter must have a low resistance.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is a device which is connected in parallel to the component across which voltage needs to be measured. In a parallel circuit voltage drop is same at the nodes. The parallel connection must not offer easier path for current to divert from the main circuit and travel. Thus, a voltmeter must have high resistance.

On the other hand, an ammeter which is used to measure current in the circuit must have low resistance as it is connected in series. It should not offer resistance as it would reduce the actual current and measurement would be inaccurate.

Jane has a mass of 55 kg and his body covers 700 nails with a surface area of 1.00 mm,

Oksana_A [137]

We have,

Jane mass is 55 kg
His body covered with 700 nails all of them having a surface area of 1.00 mm² each = 700 × 1 = 700 mm² = 700/1000000 = 7/10000

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Let's calculate force as we already have area;

F = ma
F = 55 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity }
F = 539 N

Now, if should she would be on 700 nails then pressure will be;

P = F/A
P = 539/7 × 10000
P = 5390000/7
P = 770,000 Pascal

And if should would be on a 1 nail only,

P = F/A
P = 539/1 × 1000000
P = 539000000 Pascal

As, you can notice yourself that the pressure will be so high with only 1 nail and because of this, nail will pass through jane's body.

An astronaut floating in space throws a wrench forward with the force of 10 N.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

A moving object must have which type of energy

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. ... Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy. For example, a flying squirrel might collide with a stationary chipmunk.
