B. A machine changes the magnitude or direction of the force. Hope that helped.
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A machine helps in reducing human effort. As a result, it changes the direction of force which we apply on the object.

Because machines help to increase the strength of force or change the direction in which force is applied in order to perform certain work and thus, humans have to put less efforts.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, a machine make work easier for you by changing the direction of your applied force.

Answer:

47 \ \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

s = displacement (m)

u = initial velocity (\frac{m}{s})

v = final velocity (\frac{m}{s})

a = acceleration (\frac{m}{s^{2} })

t = time (s)

s = 235

a = -4.7

v = 0

v² = u² + 2as

(0)² = u² + 2(-4.7)(235)

u² - 2209 = 0

u² = 2209

u = 47

A baseball with a mass of 300 g has a kinetic energy of 304 J. Calculate the speed of the baseball
scZoUnD [109]

The formula for kinetic energy is equal to 1/2mv^2, where "m" is the mass of the object (in kilograms) and "v" is equal to the velocity of the object (in meters per second). To calculate the speed, simply plug in the values and solve.

KE = 0.5mv^2

304 J = 0.5(0.3 kg)v^2         -mass converted from grams to kilograms

v = 45.02 m/s

The baseball is travelling about 45.02 meters per second.

Hope this helps!

If the work function of a material is such that red light of wavelength 700 nm just barely initiates the photoelectric effect, w
marishachu [46]

Answer:

2.13 x 10^-19 J or 0.53 eV

Explanation:

cut off wavelength, λo = 700 nm = 700 x 10^-9 m

λ = 400 nm = 400 x 10^-9 m

Use the energy equation

E = \frac{h c}{\lambda _{o}}+K

Where, K be the work function

\frac{h c}{\lambda} = \frac{h c}{\lambda _{o}}+K

K =hc\left ( \frac{1}{\lambda } -\frac{1}{\lambda _{0}}\right )

K =6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}\left ( \frac{1}{4\times 10^{-7} } -\frac{1}{7\times 10^{-7}}\right )

K = 2.13 x 10^-19 J

K = 0.53 eV

A planet's rotation determines the length of its day and its revolution determines the length of its year. A day on Earth is 24
Sholpan [36]

Explanation:

The speed of rotation of Venus is slower than that of Earth that is why a day on Venus is longerthan Earth's day. Whereas, Venus is closer to sun than Earth, this means Venus trajectory of revolution is smaller than that of Earth.Therefore, a year on Venus is shorter than Earth's year.

A stone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, 250 m above the ground. (Assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) Find the dista
Vitek1552 [10]

(a) y(t)=250 - 4.9 t^2

For an object in free-fall, the vertical position at time t is given by:

y(t) = h + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h is the initial vertical position

u is the initial vertical velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

In this problem,

h = 250 m

u = 0 (the stone starts from rest)

So, the vertical position of the stone is given by

y(t) = 250 - \frac{1}{2}(9.8) t^2 = 250 - 4.9 t^2

(b) 7.14 s

The time it takes for the stone to reach the ground is the time t at which the vertical position of the stone becomes zero:

y(t) = 0

Which means

y(t) = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0

So for the stone in the problem, we have

250 - 4.9 t^2 = 0

Solving for t, we find:

t=\sqrt{\frac{250}{4.9}}=7.14 s

(c) -70.0 m/s (downward)

The velocity of an object in free fall is given by the equation

v(t) = u - gt

where

u is the initial velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Here we have

u = 0

So if we substitute t = 7.14 s, we find the velocity of the stone at the time it reaches the ground:

v=0-(9.8 m/s^2)(7.14 s)=-70.0 m/s

The negative sign means the direction of the velocity is downward.

(d) 6.94 s

In this situation, the stone is thrown downward with an initial speed of 2 m/s, so its initial velocity is

u = -2 m/s

So the equation of the vertical position of the stone in this case is

y(t) = h + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2=250 - 2t - 4.9 t^2

By solving the equation, we find the time t at which the stone reaches the ground.

We find two solutions:

t = -7.35 s

t = 6.94 s

The first solution is negative, so it has no physical meaning, therefore we discard it. So, the time it takes for the stone to reach the ground is:

t = 6.94 s
