Answer:

The work is done by the truck pulling the car 1 km is 1,212,436 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force that is applied on a body to move it from one point to another. When a force is applied, an energy transfer occurs. Then it can be said that work is energy in motion.

So work is one of the forms of energy transmission between bodies. To perform a job, you must exert a force on a body and it moves.

In the International System of Units, work is measured in Joule. A Joule is the work that a constant force of 1 Newton does on a body that moves 1 meter in the same direction and direction as the force. Then, Joule is equivalent to Newton per meter.

The work is equal to the product of the force by the distance and by the cosine of the angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction that travels the point or the object that moves:

Work= Force*Distante* cos (θ)

In this case:

  • Force= 1,400 N= 1,400 kg*\frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • Distance= 1 km= 1,000 m
  • θ= Angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction= 30°

Replacing:

Work= 1,400 N* 1,000 m* cos (30°)

Work= 1,212,435. 565 Joule≅ 1,212,436 J

<u><em> The work is done by the truck pulling the car 1 km is 1,212,436 J</em></u>

Nady [450]
:<span>  </span><span>Under the assumption that a cell is made up of two concentric spheres you find the surface are of the inside sphere which will be your A. 

You already have your separation and dielectric constant so just use the formula you stated towards the end of your question and you get 8.93x10^-11 Farads which is about 89pF</span>

Westkost [7]

Answer:

d) Decrease, increase, remain constant

Explanation:

If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_DECREASE____with time due to outflow of air , the surface area between the tire and the road will__INCREASE__in time,due to flattening of tire.

The net force the tire exerts on the road will_REMAIN CONSTANT____in time. It is so because force does not depend upon area. It is pressure which depends upon area. As there is no change in the weight of the car , force on the road will remain constant.
