The force is not pulling in the direction that the box is moving.
Only the force in the horizontal direction does work.
The force in the vertical direction doesn't do any work, because
   the box doesn't move through any vertical distance.

The horizontal force is 200(cos 45°) = 142 newtons

The vertical force is 200(sin 45°) = 142 newtons

If you pull the box 5 meters, then the amount of work done is

   (force) x (distance) = (142 N) x (5 m) = 710 joules.

Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)

   = (710 joules) / (5 seconds) = 142 watts .

A -0.00325 C charge q1 is placed 5.62 m from a second charge q2. The first charge is repelled with a 48900 N force. What is the

blagie [28]

Answer: q2 = -0.05286

Explanation:

Given that

Charge q1 = - 0.00325C

Electric force F = 48900N

The electric field strength experienced by the charge will be force per unit charge. That is

E = F/q

Substitute F and q into the formula

E = 48900/0.00325

E = 15046153.85 N/C

The value of the repelled second charge will be achieved by using the formula

E = kq/d^2

Where the value of constant

k = 8.99×10^9Nm^2/C^2

d = 5.62m

Substitutes E, d and k into the formula

15046153.85 = 8.99×10^9q/5.62^2

15046153.85 = 284634186.5q

Make q the subject of formula

q2 = 15046153.85/ 28463416.5

q2 = 0.05286

Since they repelled each other, q2 will be negative. Therefore,

q2 = -0.05286

A pendulum of length L=36.1 cm and mass m=168 g is released from rest when the cord makes an angle of 65.4 degrees with the vert

pychu [463]

(a) -0.211 m

At the beginning the mass is displaced such that the length of the pendulum is L = 36.1 cm and the angle with the vertical is

$\theta=65.4^{\circ}$

The projection of the length of the pendulum along the vertical direction is

$L_y = L cos \theta = (36.1 cm)(cos 65.4^{\circ})=15.0 cm$

the full length of the pendulum when the mass is at the lowest position is

L = 36.1 cm

So the y-displacement of the mass is

$\Delta y = 15.0 cm - 36.1 cm = -21.1 cm = -0.211 m$

(b) 0.347 J

The work done by gravity is equal to the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the mass, which is equal to

$\Delta U = mg \Delta y$

where we have

m = 168 g = 0.168 kg is the mass of the pendulum

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

$\Delta y = 0.211 m$ is the vertical displacement of the pendulum

So, the work done by gravity is

$W=(0.168 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.211 m)=0.347 J$

And the sign is positive, since the force of gravity (downward) is in the same direction as the vertical displacement of the mass.

(c) Zero

The work done by a force is:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this situation, the tension in the string always points in a radial direction (towards the pivot of the pendulum), while the displacement of the mass is tangential (it follows a circular trajectory): this means that the tension and the displacement are always perpendicular to each other, so in the formula

$\theta=90^{\circ}, cos \theta = 0$

and so the work done is zero.

Which example is NOT a part of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves </h3>

Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.

<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>

An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.
Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.

<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves </h3>

They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
They can travel through vacuum

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.
