The work done is 140.3 J

Explanation:

  • The work done is defined as the amount of force required or used to move an object over a particular distance. Hence, work done is the product of force in Newton and the distance in which the object moved in meters.
  • Here, in the question, it is given that there is a frictional force acting on the box by the floor and the distance it moves. Hence, to get the answer to multiply frictional force and the distance. So, will get the work done as 140.3 J.

When the voltage across a steady resistance is doubled, the current?
natima [27]

I'm actually going ahead in the book (DC Circuits) so this isn't really homework but I figured the tag was appropriate....the name of the chapter is Ohm's Law and Watt's Law.

<span>Problem: Calculate the power dissipated in the load resistor, R, for each of the circuits.Circuit (a): V = 10V; I = 100mA; R = ?; Since I know V and I use formula P = IV: P = IV = (100mA)(10V) = 1 W.</span>

The next question is what I'm not sure about:

Question: What is the power in the circuit (a) above if the voltage is doubled? (Hint: Consider the effect on current).

What I did initially was: P = IV = (100mA)(2V) = 2 W

But then I looked at the answer and it said 4 W, then I looked at the Hint again. Then I remembered in the book early on it said "If the voltage increases across a resistor, current will increase."

So question is: When solving problems I have to increase (or decrease) current (I) every time voltage (V) is increased (decreased) in a problem, right? How about the other way around, when increasing current (I), you need to increase voltage (V). I'm pretty sure that's how they got 4 W, but want to make sure before I head to the next section of the book.

P = IV = (200mA)(2V) = 4 W

Which mystery primate is a biped? list the characteristics you choose to justify your answer
Vadim26 [7]

Primate B mystery primate is a biped.

The characteristics are:

  1. The vast majority of primates live in trees (Notable exceptions are humans and gorillas).
  2. The majority of primates have upright upper bodies and occasionally walk on two feet (Humans are erect and always exhibit bipedalism).
  3. All primates have smaller noses and matching olfactory brain regions (except Lemurs).
  4. Compared to other mammals, primates have enormous brains for their size. Stereoscopic vision, hand-eye coordination, and manual dexterity are all governed by the brain's enlarged regions.
  5. Considering the size of the animal, long gestations
  6. Primate sociality is rather high in general.
  7. The majority of primates are nocturnal.
  8. The highly enjoyable action of grooming is shared by all highly evolved primates, including humans.
<h3>Primate </h3>

Lemurs, lorises, tarsiers, monkeys, apes, and humans are all included in the biological order called primates. Class Mammalian of the phylum Vertebrate includes creatures with qualities that have evolved recently in the taxonomic classification of the animal kingdom. 19 subtaxa known as orders have been added to the Mammalia classification. Primates are one of such groups, which contains eutherian animals like monkeys and apes. As a result, during a period of 30 million years, new world and old world monkeys underwent different adaptive radiations and were reproductively isolated. The Oligocene epoch saw the evolution of prosimians. About 30 million years ago, all currently extant primates underwent evolution.

A circular pizza into 3 equal parts, one piece of pizza is taken out. Estimate the degree measure of the single piece of pizza a
seropon [69]

Answer:

A circular pizza has a angle of 360 degrees. When you cut it into 3 equal pieces you divide 360 by 3,you get 120 degrees. And following the conversion of 120 degree into radian you get 2pie/3 radians.

(a) How many kilograms of water must evaporate from a 60.0-kg woman to lower their body temperature by 0.750ºC?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

69.69 g

Explanation:

Evaporation of water will take out latent heat of vaporization.  Let the mass of water be m and latent heat of vaporization of water be 2260000 J per kg

Heat taken up by evaporating water

= 2260000 x m J

Heat lost by body

= mass x specific heat of body x drop in temperature

60 x 3500 x .750  ( specific heat of human body is 3.5 kJ/kg.k)

= 157500 J

Heat loss = heat gain

2260000 m= 157500

m = .06969 kg

= 69.69 g
