Average speed =

               (distance covered during some period of time)
divided by
               (length of time to cover that distance).

Which of these objects are malleable? Check all that apply.
g100num [7]

Answer:

The tin fork and knife, the copper coin, and the steel fence pole.

Explanation:

Those are both what people would call soft metals so they are malleable to the extent of probably not needing heavy duty equipment. It depends on you description of malleable because the steel fence pole could be malleable with the correct equipment and not snap in half if bent slowly enough.

The definition of malleable: (of a metal or other material) able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking.

But the glass table, marble sculpture and antique ceramic vase are nowhere near malleable because if you tried bending them they wouldn't bend but would shatter and break into pieces.

The normal force acting on an object and the force of static friction do zero work on the object. However the reason that the wo
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<em>The normal force is perpendicular to the displacement</em>

<em>The static friction force produces no displacement</em>

Explanation:

Work Done By Special Forces

The work is a physical magnitude that measures the dot product of the force applied to an object by the displacement it produces in it.

W=\vec F\ \vec r

It can be written in its scalar version as

W=F.d.cos\theta

Being F and d the magnitudes of the force and displacement, and \theta the angle between them

If the angle is zero, the work is at maximum, it the angle is 90°, the work is zero. If the angle is between 90° and 180°, the work is negative.

The normal force acts in the vertical direction when the object is being pushed horizontally. It means the angle between the force and the displacement is 90°, thus the work is

W=N.d.cos90^o=0

The work is zero because the force and the displacement are perpendicular

The static friction force exists only when the object is being applied a force of a magnitude not large enough to produce movement, i.e. the object is at rest. If the object is moved, the friction force is still present, but it's called dynamic friction force, usually smaller than the static.

Since in this case, there is no displacement, d=0, and the work is

W=F_r(0)cos180^o=0

A pair of narrow slits, separated by 1.8 mm, is illuminated by a monochromatic light source. Light waves arrive at the two slits
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

750 nm

Explanation:

d  = separation of the slits = 1.8 mm = 0.0018 m

λ = wavelength of monochromatic light

D  = screen distance = 4.8 m

y = position of first bright fringe = \frac{1cm}{5 fringe} = \frac{0.01}{5} = 0.002 m

n  = order = 1

Position of first bright fringe is given as

y = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}

0.002 = \frac{(1)(4.8)\lambda }{0.0018}

λ = 7.5 x 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 750 nm
