We don't know how much force s/he had to use to push the block.
If the floor was smooth and wet, it needed very little force.
If there was sandpaper or stones on the floor, it took a lot of force.

Whatever amount of force s/he needed to use, the work done was

          Work  =  (amount of force, in Newtons) x (10 m)

          The unit is Joules.

An object is thrown directly downward from the top of a very tall building. The speed of the object just as it is released is 17
Softa [21]

Answer:

distance cover is  = 102.53 m

Explanation:

Given data:

speed of object is 17.1 m/s

t_1 = 3.32 sec

t_2 = 5.08 sec

from equation of motion we know that

d_1 = vt_1 + \frac{1}{2} gt_1^2

where d_1 is distance covered in time t1

sod_1 = 17.1 \times 3.32 + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 \times 3.32^2=

d_1 = 110.78 m

d_2 = vt_2 + \frac{1}{2} gt_2^2

where d_2 is distance covered in time t2

d_2 = 17.1 \times 5.08 + \frac{1}{2}\times9.8 \times 5.08^2

d_2 = 213.31 m

distance cover is  = 213.31 - 110.78 = 102.53 m

Unpolarized light of intensity I0 = 950 W/m2 is incident upon two polarizers. The first has its polarizing axis vertical, and th
Ket [755]

Answer:

Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 425 W/m²

Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = 75.905 W/m²

Explanation:

Given:

Unpolarized light of intensity (I₀) = 950 W/m²

θ = 65°

Find:

a. Intensity of the light (first polarizer)

b. Intensity of the light (second polarizer)

Computation:

a. Intensity of the light (first polarizer)

Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = I₀ / 2

Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 950 / 2

Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 425 W/m²

b. Intensity of the light (second polarizer)

Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = (I₁)cos²θ

Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = (425)(0.1786)

Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = 75.905 W/m²

How is motion affected by change in mass of an object and forces applied?
densk [106]
Newtons second law says that the acceleration of an object (produced by a net force) is directly proportional to that magnitude of the net force. E.g. F = ma
where F is the net force of an object, m is mass and a is acceleration.
For example, if an object had a large mass, there would have to be more force in order to move it than if it was lighter.  
In a linear motion, if you pushed two objects, one slightly larger than the other, with the same force, the acceleration of the smaller object would be bigger than the larger one. So the motion (change in position over time), of the larger object would be seen as lesser than the smaller one (in a situation where both forces are equal).
