Answer:

Wg is positive and WT negative.

(Letters in options are all wrongly written).

Explanation:

Remember that the work of a force is the internal product between the force and the displacement W=F.d.

Since the displacement is downwards like the weight, the work done by gravity is positive, while the work done by the tension is negative since it points upwards.

What occurs when an object travels in a curved path
babymother [125]
<span>When an object travels in a curved path, there must be a force acting toward the center of the circular trajectory. This force is called "centripetal force", and it cause an acceleration of the object, called "centripetal acceleration". The effect of this acceleration is that the velocity of the object changes in direction: however if the circular motion is uniform, the speed (=the magnitude of the velocity) does not change. In this case, the magnitude of the centripetal force is given by
</span>F=m \frac{v^2}{r}<span>
where m is the mass of the object, v its velocity, and r the radius of the circular path.</span>

A wave has a velocity of 24 m/s and a period of 3.0 s. Calculate the wavelength of the wave.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Velocity (unit:m/s) of the wave is given with the formula:

v=f∧,

where f is the frequency which tells us how many waves are passing a point per second (unit: Hz) and ∧ is the wavelength, which tells us the length of those waves in metres (unit:m)

f=1/T , where T is the period of the wave.

In our case: f=1/3

∧=v/f=24m/s/1/3=24*3=72m
