<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>

A hockey stick of mass ms and length L is at rest on the ice (which is assumed to be frictionless). A puck with mass mp hits the
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Explanation:

Given info

ms = mass of the hockey stick

uis = 0 (initial speed of the hockey stick before the collision)

xis = D (initial position of center of mass of the hockey stick before the collision)

mp = mass of the puck

uip = v₀ (initial speed of the puck before the collision)

xip = 0 (initial position of center of mass of the puck before the collision)

If we apply

Ycm = (ms*xis + mp*xip) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D + mp*0) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Now, we can apply the equation

L = m*v*R

where m = mp

v = v₀

R = Ycm

then we have

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

DanielleElmas [232]
During the internal examination, the pathologist drains the intestines, removes any undigested food and feces, and examines the contents of the stomach. This examination could give the pathologist clues of the time of death, and the location of death.  The process of digesting and defecation vary from person to person, the entire process is generally considered to take approximately 40 hours in adults
