Answer:

Work done, W = 0

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 10 kg

Distance covered by the person, d = 100 m

Speed of the person, v = 2 m/s

We need to find the work done by this person. We know that the product of force and distance is equal to the work done by the person. Mathematically,

W=F\times d

W=m\times a\times d    

Since, the acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. Here, the person is moving the mass with a constant velocity. So, there is no change in velocity, a = 0

As a result, the work done by the person is 0 J. So, the correct option is (c). Hence, this is the required solution.

Since the direction of the force and the direction of the path is perpendicular, the person is not doing any physical work.

Suppose you observed the equation for a traveling wave to be y(x, t) = A cos(kx − ????t), where its amplitude of oscillations wa
OLga [1]

Answer:

<h2>15m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The equation for a traveling wave as expressed as y(x, t) = A cos(kx − \omegat) where An is the amplitude f oscillation, \omega is the angular velocity and x is the horizontal displacement and y is the vertical displacement.

From the formula; k =\frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} \ and \ \omega = 2 \pi f where;

\lambda \ is\ the \ wavelength \ and\ f \ is\ the\ frequency

Before we can get the transverse speed, we need to get the frequency and the wavelength.

frequency = 1/period

Given period = 2/15 s

Frequency = \frac{1}{(2/15)}

frequency = 1 * 15/2

frequency f = 15/2 Hertz

Given wavelength \lambda = 2m

Transverse speed v = f \lambda

v = 15/2 * 2\\\\v = 30/2\\\\v = 15m/s

Hence, the transverse speed at that point is  15m/s

<h2>Answer:</h2>

All the energy sources are correctly matched with their category.

Explanation:

Renewable energy sources:

These are energy sources which can be replenished as they don't in involves the irreversible phase change.

These resources can never be ended as they can be used again and again.

Wind, geothermal, biomass, bio gas are example of renewable energy sources.

Non renewable energy sources:

These are the energy source which can never be replenished after one time use. They undergo the chemical irreversible change.

These sources are lacking with the passage of time because they can never be reused.

Oil, gas, coal and natural gas are examples.

If you have two objects on the edge of a cliff, how can you determine which one has the most potential energy?
True [87]

Answer: now take this with a grain of salt because I'm in middle school but I think that the more massive object has more potential energy.
