A sled is pulled along a level path through snow by a rope. A 20-lb force acting at an angle of 40° above the horizontal moves t

he sled 90 ft. Find the work done by the force. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Sauron [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Work one by the force, W = 1378.87 lb-ft

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the sled, F = 20 lb

Angle between the force and the horizontal, θ = 40°

Distance moved, d = 90 ft

We need to find the work done by the force. We know that the work done can be calculated as :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

W=20\ lb\times 90\ ft\ cos(40)

W = 1378.87 lb-ft

So, the work done by the force is 1378.87 lb-ft. Hence, this is the required solution.

The distance between two slits is 1.50 *10-5 m. A beam of coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates these slits, and the d
Fed [463]

Answer: y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm

Explanation: The formulae for the distance between the central bright fringe to any other fringe in pattern is given as

y = R×mλ/d

Where y = distance between nth fringe and Central bright spot fringe.

m = position of fringe = 4

λ = wavelength of light= 600nm = 600×10^-9 m

d = distance between slits = 1.50×10^-5m

R = distance between slit and screen = 2m

y = 2 × 4 × 600×10^-9/2

y = 4800×10^-9/2

y = 2400 × 10^-9

y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm

What is a warming sign that suggest a weight loss plan is a fad diet rather than a healthy weight loss plan?
Serga [27]

Answer:

Warming signs before fad diet includes:

1. When a special type of diet is recommended for weight loss.

2. When quick weight loss is promised instead of advice on the need to exercise, eat healthy foods including fruits and vegetables, and adopt a good feeding behavior.

3. Promises rapid weight loss in a short period of time.

After taking the fad diet the following might be experienced:

1. Constipation.

2. Weakness and fatigue.

3. More accumulation of fats in the body in the long run after a short term normal  BMI (Body mass index).

4. Lower metabolic rates over time.

Explanation:

weight loss is a practice adopted by people for various reasons ranging from the desire to stay healthy to, ability to pursue a career that requires a good Body Mass Index. For instance, A BMI (Body mass index) which is equal to a person's weight (kg) / (height(m))^2 of 30 and higher is considered obese.

Fad diet which may give a temporary result of weight loss is not considered totally healthy as it doesn't capture the need to eat a healthy balanced diet instead focuses on more routine consumption of a particular kind of diet.

A healthy weight loss plan captures the need to exercise, reduce body fats while eating healthy. Eating fruits, vegetables are also encouraged.

A stone is dropped from the
ICE Princess25 [194]
  • Height=h=500m
  • Acceleration=g=10m/s^2
  • Initial velocity=u=0
  • Speed of sound=c=340m/s
  • TIME TAKEN BY STONE TO HIT WATER=t
  • Time taken by sound to hear back=T

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}10t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto 500=5t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto t^2=100

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=10s

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=cT

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{h}{c}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{500}{340}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=1.47\approx 1.5s

Total time:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto T_{net}=t+T=10+1.5=11.5s

A bug is sitting on the edge of a rotating disk. At what angular velocity will the bug slide off the disk if its radius is 0.241
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

ω = 3.61 rad/sec

Explanation:

Firstly, we should know that the bug will not slip if friction can provide sufficient opposing force.

μmg = mv^2/r = mω^2r

Thus;

μg = ω^2r

ω^2 = μg/r

ω = √(μg/r)

ω = √(0.321 * 9.8)/0.241

ω = √(13.05)

= 3.61 rad/sec
