It is the Earth's atmosphere that protects us from radiation and the vacuum of space--specifically UV radiation from the Sun, which can be very dangerous even with the atmosphere's intervention.

10. How much total work do you do when you lift a 50 kg microwave 1.0 m off the ground and then push it 1.0 m
Mariulka [41]

Work formula:

W = Fd\cos(\theta)

F = 50N, d = 1.0 m

When you lift something straight up, the angle of the force is 90º

cos(90º) is 0, so there's no work done when you lift the microwave off the ground

W = (50N)(1.0)(0) = 0

F = 50N, d = 1.0 m

When you push the microwave, the angle is 0º and cos(0º) is 1. So there is work done here:

W = (50 N)(1.0m)(1)

W = 50

total work = 50 joules

A 15.0 Ohms resistor is connected in series to a 120V generator and two 10.0 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel to ea
Nostrana [21]

Hi there! :)

Reference the diagram below for clarification.

1.

We must begin by knowing the following rules for resistors in series and parallel.

In series:
R_T = R_1 + R_2 + ... + R_n

In parallel:
\frac{1}{R_T} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + ... + \frac{1}{R_n}

We can begin solving for the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel using the parallel rules.

\frac{1}{R_{T, parallel}} = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{10}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{T, parallel}} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}\\\\R_{T, parallel} = 5\Omega

Now that we have reduced the parallel resistors to a 'single' resistor, we can add their equivalent resistance with the other resistor in parallel (15 Ohm) using series rules:
R_T = 15 + 5\\\\\boxed{R_T = 20 \Omega}

2.

We can use Ohm's law to solve for the current in the circuit.

i = \frac{V}{R_T}\\\\i = \frac{120}{20} = \boxed{6 A}

3.

For resistors in series, both resistors receive the SAME current.

Therefore, the 15Ω resistor receives 6A, and the parallel COMBO (not each individual resistor, but the 5Ω equivalent when combined) receives 6A.

In this instance, since both of the resistors in parallel are equal, the current is SPLIT EQUALLY between the two. (Current in parallel ADDS UP). Therefore, an even split between 2 resistors of 6 A is <u>3A for each 10Ω resistor</u>.

4.

Since the 15.0 Ω resistor receives 6A, we can use Ohm's Law to solve for voltage.

V = iR\\\\V = (6)(15) = \boxed{90 V}

A spring is hung from the ceiling. A 2.0-kg mass suspended hung from the spring extends it by 6.0 cm. A downward external force
Stolb23 [73]

The work done by force on a spring hung from the ceiling will be 1.67 J

Any two things with mass are drawn together by the gravitational pull. We refer to the gravitational force as attractive because it consistently seeks to draw masses together rather than pushing them apart.

Given that a spring is hung from the ceiling with a 2.0-kg mass suspended hung from the spring extends it by 6.0 cm and a downward external force applied to the mass extends the spring an additional 10 cm.

We need to find the work done by the force

Given mass is of 2 kg

So let,

F = 2 kg

x = 0.1 m

Stiffness of spring = k = F/x

k = 20/0.006 = 333 n/m

Now the formula to find the work done by force will be as follow:

Workdone = W = 0.5kx²

W = 0.5 x 333 x 0.1²

W = 1.67 J

Hence the work done by force on a spring hung from the ceiling will be 1.67 J
