Which example(s) below involve zero work? choose all that apply.in case it is not obvious, i do mean work in a physics sense (i.

e. we have a rather precise definition of work).a person holds a child.a person pushes a car stuck in the snow but the car does not move.a rope supports a swinging chandelier.a person pulls a sled uphill?

#1) the person holding a baby
- holding implies no motion--> no distance--> no work


#2) the car stuck in the snow
- they're trying to get it out which means that there may be some oscillation. so technically a very small amount of work is being done.

When an object is moving to the left and slowing down, what direction is the acceleration?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

According to our principle, when an object is slowing down, the acceleration is in the opposite direction as the velocity. Thus, this object has a negative acceleration. In Example D, the object is moving in the negative direction (i.e., has a negative velocity) and is speeding up.

A snail and an inchworm are in a race. Their race track heads north for a distance of 2 m. If the inchworm comes to the end of t
olga2289 [7]
Well the basic equation for velocity is v=d/t where d is distance and t is time. So v=2m/50s and the answer is v=0.04meter/second.

A vertical spring (spring constant =160 N/m) is mounted on the floor. A 0.340-kg block is placed on top of the spring and pushed
AleksandrR [38]

(a) 3.5 Hz

The angular frequency in a spring-mass system is given by

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

k is the spring constant

m is the mass

Here in this problem we have

k = 160 N/m

m = 0.340 kg

So the angular frequency is

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{160 N/m}{0.340 kg}}=21.7 rad/s

And the frequency of the motion instead is given by:

f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}=\frac{21.7 rad/s}{2\pi}=3.5 Hz

(b) 0.021 m

The block is oscillating up and down together with the upper end of the spring. The block will lose contact with the spring when the direction of motion of the spring changes: this occurs when the spring is at maximum displacement, so at

x = A

where A is the amplitude of the motion.

The maximum displacement is given by Hook's law:

F=kA

where

F is the force applied initially to the spring, so it is equal to the weight of the block:

F=mg=(0.340 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=3.34 N

k = 160 N/m is the spring constant

Solving for A, we find

A=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{3.34 N}{160 N/m}=0.021 m
