A closed box with square base is to be built to house an ant colony. the bottom of the box and all four sides are to be made of

material costing $2/ft2, and the top is to be constructed of glass costing $4/ft2. what are the dimensions of the box of greatest volume that can be constructed for $72? (enter the dimensions (in feet) as a comma separated list.)

Box has all sides same leinght(a). Area of that box is 6*a^2.
Cost of material for bottom and 4 sides is 2$/ft^2. Area of bottom and sides is A=5*a^2
Cost of material for top is 4$/ft^2. Area of top of the box is T=a^2

A*2+T*4=72
5*a^2*2+a^2*4=72
a^2*(10+4)=72
a^2*14=72, a^2=72/14, a=root(72/14), a=2.267ft
Dimensions of the box: leinght of sides 2.2ft. Area of hole box 30.835ft^2
Area of the bottom and sides: A=5*a^2=25.696ft^2
Area of the top : T=a^2=5.139ft^2
Check: A*2$+T*4$=71.95$

A 2 kg book is pushed from rest to a final velocity of 3 m/s. The book travels 2 m. How much force was the book pushed with
Studentka2010 [4]

Explanation:

first you have to find accelerarion, it is given that the initial velocity(u) is 3 m/s, distance travelled(s) be 2m finall it came to rest so final velocity be 0m/s

now using the 3rd law of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

0=9+2a2

a= -9/4m/s^2

now force=mass×accelration

=2kg×(-9/4)m/s^2

=4.5 N

4.5 newton force applied on the book!

✌️:)

A point charge is placed 3m from a 4uc charge what is the strength of the electric field on the point charge at this distance ro
Vlada [557]

The strength of the electric field on the point charge at this distance will be 4000 V/m.

<h3>What is the strength of the electric field?</h3>

The strength of the electric field is the ratio of electric force per unit charge.

The given data in the problem is;

Qis the unit charge = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ C

E is the strength of the electric field

R is the distance from point charge = 3 m

The strength of the electric field is;

\rm E = \frac{KQ}{R^2} \\\\ \rm E = \frac{9 \times 10^9 \times 4 \times 10^{-6} \ C}{3^2} \\\\ E= 4000 V/m

Hence, the strength of the electric field on the point charge at this distance will be 4000 V/m.

To learn more about the strength of the electric field refer to the link;

Where are you most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a
FromTheMoon [43]

You're most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a  shock by walking around in a carpeted restaurant in the desert. (A)

Walking on carpet is the fastest way to accumulate charge, and the dry desert air prevents the charge from dribbling off of you and away.

When I walked on stones in the Sinai Desert, the dry wind with a little bit of sand or dust in it built up enough static charge on me that I got a shock every time I stood less than a foot away from my partner.

I had the same experience a few years later near Ouarzazate in the interior of Morocco.

When you hear people say "the desert is dry", they mean it's <em>DRY !  </em>
