The correct option is A) work.

Work is said to be done by a force when a force is exerted on an object and the the object on which the force is exerted moves in the direction of the force.

The amount of work done is given by the product of the force and the displacement made by the object.

Option (B) is incorrect, since Watt is the unit of power.

Option (C) is wrong, since joule is the unit of work or energy.

Option (D) is wrong, since power is the rate at which work is done.

A student pushes a 40-N block across the floor for a distance of 10 m. How much work was applied to move the block? A. 4 J B. 40
damaskus [11]
Now for this problem, what is given is a 40 Newtons which would represent the force to be applied to the object, and a distance of 10 meters after the application of the said force. When these two combine, work is done. The unit for work is Joules and this is what we are looking for. The formula to get Joules or for work would be the force applied to the object multiplied by the distance that it travelled after the application of the force. It looks like this

work = force x distance
Joules = Newtons x meter

so let us substitute the variables to their corresponding places

Joules = 40 N x 10 m
Joules = 400 J

So the answer to this question would be C. 400 J

What are the uses of nuclear fission or fusion and their benefits
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: The uses of nuclear fission are nuclear activator utilize for mercantile electric-power alternator throughout the world and it also has powerful starting point for propelling submarines and certainly kinds of surface yacht. And about the fusion benefits, that is that the nuclear fusion has clean vigor, very low power source cost, along with other benefits.

Hopefully this helps you my dear friend! :-)

Alex787 [66]

The final momentum of the system would be 6680 Kg m/s

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

It can be defined as the product of the mass and the speed of the particle, it represents the combined effect of mass and the speed of any particle, and the momentum of any particle is expressed in Kg m/s unit.

Mathematically the formula of the momentum is

P = mv

Two cars are driving toward each other in a straight line. Car A is 1400 kg and driving at 11 m/s. Car B is 1090 kg and driving at 8 m/s. If the two cars collide inelastically, As we know that the momentum of a system is conserved during the collision

initial momentum = final momentum

the initial momentum of the system = 1400 ×11 + 1090×(-8)

                                                           = 6680 Kg m/s

The final momentum of the system =  6680 Kg m/s

Thus,The final momentum of the system would be 6680 Kg m/s
