<span>Work can only be said to be done when an applied force results in displacement of the body in the direction of the applied force.

Work can only be said to be done in options a and d

a.pulling a box with a force of 127 newtons across the floor for 8 meters

work = 127 * 8 = 1016J

</span>
<span>d.lifting a rock by exerting an upward force of 500 newtons for 1 meter

Work = 500 N * 1 m = 500 J

Option D has more work.

D</span>

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

D) diffraction

Explanation:

Corona is an optical phenomenon produced by the diffraction of sunlight or moonlight, as light moves through water droplets in the atmosphere.

This phenomenon produces one or more diffuse concentric rings of light around the Sun or Moon, usually seen as colored circles.

Therefore, the explanation for these phenomena of colored concentric circles, sometimes seen with the Sun or the Moon involves diffraction.

spayn [35]

Answer:

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h

Explanation:

When coefficient of friction is approximately zero then we have

F_ncos\theta = mg

F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

here we know that

v = 40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

R = 30 m

tan\theta = \frac{11.11^2}{30\times 9.81}

\theta = 22.75 degree

now when friction coefficient is 0.30 then we have

F_n cos\theta = mg + F_f sin\theta

F_f cos\theta + F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

now we have

v = \sqrt{Rg(\frac{\mu + tan\theta}{1 - \mu tan\theta})}

v = \sqrt{30(9.81)(\frac{0.30 + tan22.75}{1 - (0.30) tan22.75})}

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h

Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. He bought three identical plants and gave plant 1 fertilizer every mo
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

TIME he applied the fertilizer to each plant

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to change or manipulation by the experimenter. In this experiment, Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. Bob sets up the experiment by applying the fertilizer to each plant at DIFFERENT TIMES i.e. plant 1-every morning, plant 2-once a week, plant 3-never.

Based on this, it is obvious that the independent or manipulated variable is the TIME at which he applied the fertilizer. On the other hand, the dependent or measured variable is the height of the plants.
