If a force on an object is aimed in the direction of the object’s velocity, the force does: a. no work.

Physics

Paraphin [41]3 years ago

Answer: If a force on an object is aimed in the direction of the object’s velocity, the force does positive work (b).

Explanation:

Hi, the answer is oprion b. positive work.

If a force on an object is aimed in the direction of the object’s velocity, the force does positive work.

An object's kinetic energy will only change if the force acting on the object changes the object's speed. This will only happen if there is a component of the force in the direction that the object moves.

So, A force will do work only if the force has a component in the direction that the object moves.

3. an observer is at the midpoint between two coherent in-phase sources of sound of frequency 780 hz. what is the minimum distan
baherus [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

wavelength of sound = velocity / frequency

= 340 / 780

= .4359 m

Let the observer be at equal distance d from in phase source .

let it moves by distance x for destructive interference .

path difference from source

= d + x - (d - x )

=  2x

for destructive interference

path difference = wave length / 2

2x = .4359 / 2 m

x = .4359 / 4

= .108975 m

10.9 cm

so observer must move by distance 10.9 cm towards on of the centers.

The driver of a train moving at 23m/s applies the breaks when it pases an amber signal. The next signal is 1km down the track an
pochemuha

Answer:

3.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 1000 m

v₀ = 23 m/s

a = -0.26 m/s²

t = 76 s

Find: v

This problem is over-defined.  We only need 3 pieces of information, and we're given 4.  There are several equations we can use.  For example:

v = at + v₀

v = (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s) + (23 m/s)

v = 3.2 m/s

Or:

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

(1000 m) = ½ (v + 23 m/s) (76 s)

v = 3.3 m/s

Or:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (23 m/s)² + 2(-0.26 m/s²)(1000 m)

v = 3.0 m/s

Or:

Δx = vt − ½ at²

(1000 m) = v (76 s) − ½ (-0.26 m/s²) (76 s)²

v = 3.3 m/s

As you can see, you get slightly different answers depending on which variables you use.  Since 1000 m has 1 significant figure, compared to the other variables which have 2 significant figures, I recommend using the first equation.

Which of the following would have an effect on an object's mass?
ICE Princess25 [194]
None of the above

mass is measurement of how much stuff in inside something.
if you freeze or heat an object, you merely change the state of the object. the mass is conserved.
if you change the elevation, nothing happens to the mass. the stuff will not leave the object.
so it is None of the above

When solid surfaces slide over each other, the kind of friction that occurs is called sliding friction.
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A sled sliding across snow or ice. Skis sliding against snow. A person sliding down a slide is an example of sliding friction. A coaster sliding against a table. Two cards in a deck sliding against each other. All of these are examples of sliding friction.

Hope this helps! :)
