HELPPPP MEEEEEEEEEEE Work = force × distance (W = Fd) In which scenario is the most work done?

Physics

Answer:

A parrot lifts a cracker off the ground to eat.

Explanation:

Work is said to be done by a force only if the force causes displacement.

Work (W) by a force (F) causing a displacement (d) is given as:

W=Fd

Displacement of an object is the net change in its position and a body that is not moving has zero displacement.

Let us check each option now.

Choice 1:

A parrot lifts a cracker off the ground to eat.

Here, the lifts a cracker off the ground. So, the parrot applies some force on the cracker and the cracker's position has changed.

So, there is work done by the parrot as force causes a displacement.

Choice 2:

A weightlifter holds a 150 pound barbell for 3 minutes.

Here, no work is done as the force applied to hold the barbell is not producing any displacement.

Choice 3:

A waiter holds a tray of 15 glasses of water over his head while standing at the front of a restaurant.

Here, no work is done as the force applied to hold the glasses of water is not producing any displacement.

Choice 4:

A truck motor runs for 24 hours while the truck is parked.

Here, no work is done as the force applied to run the motor is not producing any displacement (truck is parked).

So, the correct choice is first choice.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

A) Gravitational Force is greater in S.

B) Time taken to fall a given distance in air will be greater for F.

C) Both will take same time to fall in a vacuum.

D) Total force is greater in S.

Explanation:

(a) In this case, the gravitational force of S will be greater, because Newton's Second Law states that - F = ma, or weight =mg. g is constant. And mass of the solid metal is heavier.

(b) In this case, the time it will take for F to fall from a given distance in air will be greater than that of S, since the air resistance is not negligible (as in the case of S).

(c) In this, It will take same time for S and F because in a vacuum, there are no air particles, so there is no air resistance and gravity is the only force acting and so objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

(d) The total force will be greater in S than F because Force=ma and S is of heavier mass than F.

Juliette [100K]

Answer: MR²

is the the moment of inertia  of a hoop of radius R and mass M with respect to an axis perpendicular to the hoop and passing through its center

Explanation:

Since in the hoop , all mass elements  are situated at the same distance from the centre , the following expression for the moment of inertia can be written as follows.

I = ∫ r² dm

= R²∫ dm

MR²

where M is total mass and R is radius of the hoop .
