The correct answer is A. 250N

Work is a product of force and distance.

That is, work done=force×distance

Therefore substituting for the values in the question:

500J=force×2m

force= 500Nm/2m=250N

another unit for work done is Nm as force as the SI unit of force is newtons and distance in meters

Answer:A) Current = 1.739A, B)current density, J = 2.147x10^6 A/m2

magnitude of electric field , E = 0.036 N/C

)rate of thermal energy, P =2.086W

Explanation:

Resistance = R = ρL/A

But the cross-section area of the wire. is given as

Diameter / 2 = 0.04/2 =0.02in to m = 0.02 / 39.37= 0.000508

A = πr^2 = π x 0.000508^2 = 8.10 x 10^-7

since resistivity of copper,ρ= 17x10-9 ohm.m

so resistance is R = ρL/A

17x10-9 x 33 / 8.1x10-7

= 0.69 ohm.

A) Current = I = Voltage /Resistance =1.20/0.69 =1.739A

B)current density, J = Current /Area

= 1.739/8.1x10-7

= 2.147x10^6 A/m2

c)magnitude of electric field , E = Current density x resistivity =J ρ

E = 2.147 x 10^6 x 17 x 10^-9

E = 0.036 N/C

D)rate of thermal energy, P = I² R =1.739² X 0.69

=2.086W

How do you increase mechanical energy

mariarad [96]

Answer:

If an object moves in the opposite direction of a conservative net force, the potential energy will increase; and if the speed (not the velocity) of the object changes, the kinetic energy of the object also changes.

Hope i explained that clearly... :)

olasank [31]

Answer:

0.45 m/s in the negative x-direction

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of initial momentum equals the sum of final momentum

Momentum, p=mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v_c$ where $v_c$ is the common velocity, $v_1$ and $v_2$ are velocities of magnet moving in positive x-direction and magnet moving in negative x-direction respectively, $m_1$ and $m_2$ are masses of magnet moving in positive x-direction and magnet moving in negative x-direction respectively.
