Answer:

c. is negative

Explanation:

When the magnitude of force is multiplied with the force vector's projection along the direction of the vector of displacement which is negative as it is a resistive force we get the work done.

As the wind is acting in opposite direction of the force which is being applied by the plane the work done will be negative. Also, the net work will be the sum of many smaller negative quantities.

Hence, the answer here is negative.

Describe a situation that includes no less than four charges of any magnitude, but they combine so that another location, p, has
Degger [83]

Answer:

Four charges of equal magnitude sitting at the vertices of a square

Explanation:

We can arrive at such a situation by thinking of a simple example first, a configuration of two charges. The force acting on the middle point of a straight line joining the two points(charges) will be zero. That is, the net Electric field will be zero as they cancel out being equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Now, we can extend this idea to a square having charge q at each vertex. If we put 'p' at the geometric center, we can see that the Electric fields along the diagonals cancel out due to the charges at the diagonally opposite vertices(refer to the figure attached). Actually, the only requirement is that the diagonally opposite charges are equal.

We can further take this to 3 dimensions. Consider a cube having charges of equal magnitude at each vertex. In this case, the point 'p' will yet again be the geometric center as the Electric field due to the diagonally opposite charges will cancel out.

How long must a 0.70-mm-diameter aluminum wire be to have a 0.40 a current when connected to the terminals of a 1.5 v flashlight
Natalka [10]
By using Ohm's law, we can find what should be the resistance of the wire, R:
R= \frac{V}{I}= \frac{1.5 V}{0.40 A} =3.75 \Omega

Then, let's find the cross-sectional area of the wire. Its radius is half the diameter,
r=35 mm=0.35 \cdot 10^{-3} m
So the area is
A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.35 \cdot 10^{-3} m)^2=3.85 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2

And by using the resistivity  of the Aluminum, \rho=2.65 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m, we can use the relationship between resistance R and resistivity:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
to find L, the length of the wire:
L= \frac{RA}{\rho}= \frac{(3.75 \Omega)(3,85 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2)}{2.65 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m}=54.48 m
