It would depend on the directions of the boxes, but I believe there would be 3 units of work.

Definitely the large box.

W = FS, where F is the net force, S is the relative displacement.

Assume you applied the force at only one instant, then only friction does the work. So for larger box, the higher the mass will be. So does the friction.

And the S is even bigger.

Water flows past a flat plate that is oriented parallel to the flow with an upstream velocity of 0.4 m/s. (a) Determine the appr
Trava [24]

Answer:

1.12 m

0.08291 m

Explanation:

u = Upstream velocity = 0.4 m/s

Re = Reynold's number = 5\times 10^5 (turbulent)

\nu = Viscosity of water = 1.12\times 10^{-6}\ Pas

Here the flow is turbulent so we have the relation

Re_{xcr}=\frac{ux_{cr}}{\nu}\\\Rightarrow x_{cr}=\frac{Re_{xcr}\nu}{u}\\\Rightarrow x_{cr}=\frac{5\times 10^5\times 1.12\times 10^{-6}}{0.4}\\\Rightarrow x_{cr}=1.4\ m

The approximate location downstream from the leading edge where the boundary layer becomes turbulent is 1.4 m

Boundary layer thickness relation is given by

\delta={\frac{\nu x}{u}}^{\frac{1}{5}}\\\Rightarrow \delta={\frac{1.12\times 10^{-6}\times 1.4}{0.4}}^{\frac{1}{5}}\\\Rightarrow \delta=0.08291\ m

The boundary layer thickness is 0.08291 m

The motion of a particle along a straight line is described by the equation x=6+4t2 -t 4 , where x is in meter and t is in secon
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The position of the particle is 6m

The velocity of the particle is 16 m/s in negative direction

The acceleration of the object is -40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

motion of the particle along a straight line as x = 6 + 4t² - t⁴

The position of the object when t = 2s

x = 6 + 4(2)² - (2)⁴

x = 6 + 16 - 16

x = 6m

The velocity of the object when t = 2s

Velocity = dx/dt

dx/dt = 8t - 4t³

when t = 2s

Velocity = 8(2) - 4(2)³

Velocity = 16 - 32

Velocity = -16m/s

Velocity = 16 m/s (in negative direction)

The acceleration of the object when t = 2s

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = 8 - 12t²

Acceleration = 8 - 12 (2)²

Acceleration =  -40 m/s²

What is the final velocity of a car that is originally traveling 12 m/s and then undergoes an acceleration of 2.3m/s squared for
Katarina [22]

To solve this problem we use the general kinetic equations.

We need to know the time it takes for the car to reach 130 meters.

In this way we have to:

x(t) = x_0 + v_0t + 0.5at ^ 2

Where

x_0 = initial position

v_0 = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

x(t) = position as a function of time

130 = 0 + 12(t) + 0.5(2.3)t ^ 2

1.15t ^ 2 + 12t - 130.

We use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.

t = \frac{-12 \± \sqrt {(12) ^ 2-4(1.15)(- 130)}}{2 (1.15)}

t = 6.63 s and t = -17.1 s

We take the positive solution. This means that the car takes 6.63 s to reach 130 meters.

Then we use the following equation to find the final velocity:

v_f = v_0 + at

Where:

v_f = final speed

v_f = 12 +2.23(6.63)

The final speed of the car is 27.25 m/s
