The amount of WORK done is determined by 2 factors.

Explanation :

Work is done when a force is applied to create a displacement on an object.

Thus, the work done depends on the two factors i.e.

(1) Applied force (F)

(2) Distance or displacement (d)

Mathematically, work done is $W= F.s$

It also depends on the angle between the force and the displacement.

$W=Fs\ cos\ \theta$

For example,

A person carries a weight of 20 kg and lifts it on his head 1.5 m above the surface. So, the work done by him on the luggage will be:

$W= F\times s$

$W=m\times g \times s$

$W=20\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.5\ m$

So, $W=294\ Joules$

Hence, the work done by him on the luggage is 294 Joules.

Scilla [17]

Answer:

C. Just measure the volume of the container it is in

Explanation:

Another why of measuring the volume of gas is by filling a contractor with water then in invert a glass jar air will miss place the space taken by water then measure the volume of water misplaced to get the volume to air

If an object is propelled upward from a height of 128 feet at an initial velocity of 112 feet per second, then its height h aft

Marina CMI [18]

Explanation:

The equation of motion of an object is given by :

$h(t)=-16t^2+112t+128$

Where

t is the time in seconds

We need to find the time when the object hits the ground. When the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

So,

$-16t^2+112t+128=0$

$-t^2+7t+8=0$

On solving above equation using online calculator, t = 8 seconds. So, the object hit the ground after 8 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

The Heaviside function H is defined by H(t)={0 if t<0, 1 if t≥0 It is used in the study of electric circuits to represent the

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

$V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)$

Explanation:

The heaviside function is defined as:

$H(t) =1 \quad t\geq 0\\H(t) =0 \quad t$

so we see that the Heaviside function "switches on" when $t=0$ , and remains switched on when $t>0$

If we want our heaviside function to switch on when $t=5$ , we need the argument to the heaviside function to be 0 when $t=5$

Thus we define a function f:

$f(t) = H(t-5)$

The $-5$ term inside the heaviside function makes sure to displace the function 5 units to the right.

Now we just need to add a scale up factor of 240 V, because thats the voltage applied after the heaviside function switches on. ( $H(t-5) =1$ when $t\geq 5$ , so it becomes just a 1, which we can safely ignore.)

Therefore our final result is:

$V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)$

I have made a sketch for you, and added it as attachment.
