Answer: Work Done would remain same.

Let us assume that the velocity is constant while taking the load up the inclined plane. Then, the kinetic energy would remain the same. This is because kinetic energy is dependent on velocity $(K.E.=\frac{1}{2}mv^2)$ . If that is constant, the kinetic energy would remain same. The potential energy is dependent on the height $(P.E.=mgh)$ . If the height is changed, then potential energy varies. In the question, it is mentioned that without changing the height, the length of the inclined plane is changed. Therefore, the potential energy would be same as before.

We know, work done is equal to potential energy plus kinetic energy. Since there is no change in any of these, the required work done would not change.

What electrons are in “motion”, what do you have?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

When a positive charged object is placed near a conductor electrons are attracted the the object. ... When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side. As you know, electrons are always moving. They spin very quickly around the nucleus of an atom. As the electrons zip around, they can move in any direction, as long as they stay in their shell.

An organ pipe open at both ends has a length of 0.80 m. If the velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s, what is the frequency of the

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

the frequency of the second harmonic of the pipe is 425 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the open pipe, L = 0.8 m

velocity of sound, v = 340 m/s

The wavelength of the second harmonic is calculated as follows;

L = A ---> N + N--->N + N--->A

where;

L is the length of the pipe in the second harmonic

A represents antinode of the wave

N represents the node of the wave

$L = \frac{\lambda}{4} + \frac{\lambda}{2} + \frac{\lambda}{4} \\\\L = \lambda$

The frequency is calculated as follows;

$F_1 = \frac{V}{\lambda} = \frac{340}{0.8} = 425 \ Hz$

Therefore, the frequency of the second harmonic of the pipe is 425 Hz.

When an electric stove element is hot enough, it gives off a dull red glow. When it cools to the point that it no longer glows,

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

It will have a longer wavelength

Explanation:

When an electric stove is hot and gives dull red glow. a part of the energy dissipated is emitted as visible light and part as infrared radiation in the form of heat. When the stove cools down, and no longer glows all the energy is now in the form of infrared radiation.In the electromagnetic spectrum infrared rays have a higher wavelength than visible light. Hence for the reason the radiation will have a higher wavelength since visible light is cut off.
