Work is the product of

1 answer:

8 0

You have to separate out Choice 2 from the top and the last one down. The other 2 are incorrect.

The formula is Work = Force * distance.
Distance in physics is well defined. It is a change in location. But if it is spinning on an axis, the axis at least is not changing location. I'm pick the second one down.

Answer:

The resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

Explanation:

Considering west direction along negative x-axis and north direction along positive y-axis

Given:

The car travels at a speed of 120 km/h in the west direction.

The car then travels at the same speed in the north direction.

Now, considering the given directions, the velocities are given as:

Velocity in west direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_1}=-120\ \vec{i}$

Velocity in north direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_2}=120\ \vec{j}$

Now, since $v_1\ and\ v_2$ are perpendicular to each other, their resultant magnitude is given as:

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{v_1}|^2+|\overrightarrow{v_2}|^2}$

Plug in the given values and solve for the magnitude of the resultant.This gives,

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{(120)^2+(120)^2}\\\\|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=120\sqrt{2} = 169.71\ km/h$

Let the angle made by the resultant be 'x' degree with the east-west line or the x-axis.

So, the direction is given as:

$x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|})\\\\x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{120}{-120})=\tan^{-1}(-1)=-45\ deg(clockwise\ angle\ with\ the\ x-axis)$

Therefore, the resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

A certain type of laser emits light that has a frequency of 4.2 × 1014 Hz. The light, however, occurs as a series of short pulse

bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of the laser light, $f=4.2\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Time, $t=3.2\times 10^{-11}\ s$

(a) Let $\lambda$ is the wavelength of this light. It can be calculated as :

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.2\times 10^{14}}$

$\lambda=7.14\times 10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=714\ nm$

(b) Let n is the number of the wavelengths in one pulse. It can be calculated as :

$n=f\times t$

$n=4.2\times 10^{14}\times 3.2\times 10^{-11}$

n = 13440

Hence, this is the required solution.

The unit for measuring electric power is the A. ampere. B. volt. C. ohm. D. watt.

Drupady [299]

The correct answer is D: Watt. This unit was named after James Watt, and is used to express the equivalent of one joule per second in energy. In experiments and on the packaging for electrical products such as light-bulbs, the measurement will usually be written in its abbreviated format: W.

How to convert acceleration to velocity.

Nana76 [90]

You can't. Velocity and acceleration measure two different things, so their units are incompatible. It's like asking, "How many meters does this book weigh?"

Maybe you mean "find" acceleration using given velocities, or a velocity function?
