Discuss whether any work is being done by each of the following agents and, if so, whether the work is positive or negative: (a)

a chicken scratching the ground no work positive work negative work (b) a person studying no work positive work negative work (c) a crane lifting a bucket of concrete no work positive work negative work (d) the gravitational force on the bucket of concrete no work positive work negative work (e) the leg muscles of a person in the act of sitting down no work positive work negative work

Answer:

a) As the chicken is still, the displacement is zero, which implies that the work is zero.

b) as the person is still there is no displacement therefore the work is zero

c) Lagraua applies a vertical force and the displacement is vertical, therefore the Work is positive

d) the force of gravity is directed downwards and the displacement is upwards, therefore the angle between it is 180º and the 180º fly is -1. Consequently the lock is negative

e) when the person meticulously feels the upward force and the displacement is downward, therefore the work is negative

Explanation:

Work is defined by the expression

        W = F. r

bold letters indicate vectors, we can write this expression as a module

        W= F r cos θ

where is at the angle between force and displacement.

Let's apply this expression to the different cases

a) As the chicken is still, the displacement is zero, which implies that the work is zero.

b) as the person is still there is no displacement therefore the work is zero

c) Lagraua applies a vertical force and the displacement is vertical, therefore the Work is positive

d) the force of gravity is directed downwards and the displacement is upwards, therefore the angle between it is 180º and the 180º fly is -1. Consequently the lock is negative

e) when the person meticulously feels the upward force and the displacement is downward, therefore the work is negative

If m represent mass in kg, v represents speed in m/s and r represents radius in m show F in the formula F= (mv^2)/r can be expre
Dmitrij [34]
M <span>represent mass in kg
</span><span>v represents speed in m/s
</span><span>r represents radius in m

Now, just substitute these into the formula:
</span>F =  \frac{m* v^{2} }{r} =\frac{kg* ( \frac{m}{s} )^{2} }{m} =\frac{kg* \frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}} }{m} = \frac{kg*m^{2}}{s^{2}*m } =\frac{kg*m}{s^{2} }<span>

In Einstein’s analysis, a photon striking the surface of a conductor is absorbed by an electron. Which statement describes the s
puteri [66]

Answer:

the correct answer is A

Explanation:

In an Einstein-type analysis, the photon is absorbed, it loses all its energy, therefore the electron must receive all or none of the energy of the incident photon. In a type of inelastic shock.

Let's analyze the different answers

A) true. In photon it is completely absorbed or passes without interaction

B) False. The photon must change energy, but in this case there is no absorption of the photon

C) False. In the insistent analyzes, the quantization of the electron in discrete states is not mentioned.

Therefore the correct answer is A

Calculate two stars appear to you to have the same brightness. if star a is 7.00 light-years away from you, while star b is 15.0
vagabundo [1.1K]

It  is eight times more than the star A.

<h3>What is luminosity  and on which it depends?</h3>

The luminosity of an object is a measure of its intrinsic brightness and is defined as the amount of energy the object emits in a fixed time.

luminousity depends upon the two factors are:

1) The star's actual brightness

Some stars are naturally more luminous than others ,so the brightness level from one star to next star is significantly different.

2) The star distance from us

The more distance of an object the dimmer it appears.

Energy emitted = sAT⁴

where s is stefan constant

A is surface area and T is temperature  .
