Incomplete question. Full text is:

"<span>Give an example of a situation in which you would describe an object's position in (a) one-dimension coordinates (b) two-dimension coordinates (c) three-dimension coordinates"

Solution
(a) One dimension example: a man walking along a metal plank. We just need to specify one coordinate, the distance from the beginning of the plank.

(b) Two-dimension example: a ball moving on a circle. In this case, we need two coordinates: (x,y) to specify the position of the ball at every instant, since it is moving on a 2-D plane.

(c) The position of an airplane in the air: in this case we need 3 coordinates, the height, the latitude and the longitude of the airplane.</span>

What conditions must be satisfied for a body to be in equilibrium <br>

dem82 [27]

For an object to be in equilibrium, it must be experiencing no acceleration. This means that both the net force and the net torque on the object must be zero.

Consider two wheels with fixed hubs. The hub cannot move, but the wheel can rotate about it. The hubs are fixed to a stationary

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Magnitude of force on wheel B is 4 N

Explanation:

Given that

$I=mr^2$

For wheel A

m= 1 kg

d= 1 m,r= 0.5 m

F=1 N

We know that

T= F x r

T=1 x 0.5 N.m

T= 0.5 N.m

T= I α

Where I is the moment of inertia and α is the angular acceleration

$I_A=1 \times 0.5^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_A=0.25\ kg.m^2$

T= I α

0.5= 0.25 α

$\alpha = 2\ rad/s^2$

For Wheel B

m= 1 kg

d= 2 m,r=1 m

$I_B=1 \times 1^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_B=1 \ kg.m^2$

Given that angular acceleration is same for both the wheel

$\alpha = 2\ rad/s^2$

T= I α

T= 1 x 2

T= 2 N.m

Lets force on wheel is F then

T = F x r

2 = F x 1

So F= 2 N

Magnitude of force on wheel B is 2 N

Why are there only two elements in the first period of the periodic table?(1 point)

tester [92]

Answer:

because each row increases in atomic mass by a specific number, so anything over five is in the second row.

how much power is needed to lift a box with a force of 780 newtons over a distance of 2 meters in 45 seconds

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which work is done and can be found by using the formula

$p = \frac{w}{t} \\$

p is the power in Watts (W)

w is the workdone in joules

t is time in s

but workdone = force × distance

From the question

force = 780 N

distance = 2 m

workdone = 780 × 2 = 1560 N

Since we now have the value of workdone we can find the power

We have

$p = \frac{1560}{45} = 34.6666666... \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

3. Suppose that a block is pulled 16 meters across a floor. What amount of work is done if the force used to drag the block is 2

Nadusha1986 [10]

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance.

W = F×d

W = (22 N) × (16 m)

W = 352 J
