The answer would be:

Pulling a trailer up a hill

Here is why:

In physics, work is computed by the formula:

W = Fd or F(cosΘ)d

Where: F = Force applied on the object

            d =displacement

So in order for work to be done, the object needs to be displaced. In the case of the trailer, the trailer is being pulled and it is travelling in the direction of the force applied.

The other options the object is not displaced. Even if you exert a force, if the displacement remains the same, then it will always be zero, so the force times displacement will be 0, hence no work is done.

In an electricity experiment, a 1.10 g plastic ball is suspended on a 56.0 cm long string and given an electric charge. A charge
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Tension, T = 0.0115 N                      

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the plastic ball, m = 1.1 g

Length of the string, l = 56 cm

A charged rod brought near the ball exerts a horizontal electrical force F on it, causing the ball to swing out to a 21.0 degree angle and remain there. According to attached figure :

T\cos\theta=mg

T is tension in the string

T=\dfrac{mg}{\cos\theta}\\\\T=\dfrac{1.1\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8}{\cos(21)}\\\\T=0.0115\ N

So, the tension in the string is 0.0115 N.

3. Pencils should not be used inside the computer to change the setting of switches or to
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Pencils indeed should not be used as tools when working inside a computer because it is made of Lead.

Lead is a conductor of electricity and as such if it is left inside the computer at even miniscule quantities, it can redirect electricity and damage components in the process.

If one wants to work inside a computer, it is best to use tools like tweezers and needle-nose pliers.

Which of the following statements does not correctly describe a harmonic plane wave traveling in some medium.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Incorrect statement is (b).

Explanation:

Option (a) : There is an inverse relation between the time and the frequency. The time taken depends on the frequency of the number of oscillations. Statement 1 is correct i.e. the time taken by any point of the wave to make one complete oscillation does not depend on the amplitude.

Option (b) : Speed of a wave is given by the product of its frequency and wavelength. It is not necessary that doubling the wavelength of the wave will halve its frequency as speed depends on the medium.

Option (c) : Doubling the amplitude has no effect on on the wavelength as amplitude does not depends on its wavelength.

Option (d) : Since, v=f\times \lambda

Speed is directly proportional to the frequency and wavelength. So, doubling the frequency of the wave will double its speed. So, the incorrect statement is (b).

A curve of radius 53.1 m is banked so that a car of mass 2.9 Mg traveling with uniform speed 67 km/hr can round the curve withou
prisoha [69]

Answer:

33.65°

Explanation:

radius, r = 53.1 m

m = 2.9 Mg = 2.9 x 10^6 g = 2900 kg

v = 67 km/h

convert km/h into m/s

v = 18.61 m/s

Let the angle of banking of road is θ, without friction

tan\theta =\frac{v^{2}}{rg}

tan\theta =\frac{18.61^{2}}{53.1\times 9.8}

tan  θ = 0.6655

θ = 33.65°

Thus, the angle of banking of road is 33.65°.
