Blababa [14]

Answer:

Option(B),option(C) and Option(D) are the correct answer to the given question .

Explanation:

  • In the option(B) if we apply the force to stop the car. The motion and force of car is in the opposite direction .Suppose the person is moving the car to the straight and person immediately apply break the back wheel of the car is stop this means that  force and direction of motion is opposite that's why this is correct .
  • In the  option(C) the ball  and batsman hinting the ball is in the opposite direction .Suppose the ball is coming to the batsman to the right and it hits to the left its a opposite direction Therefore in this the force and direction of motion is opposite that's why this is correct .
  • In the option(D) if the person drawing water from a well there is always upward force is applied but there is always motion is there i.e downward force i,e mg.that's why  force and direction of motion is opposite that's why this is correct .
  • In the option(A) the force of opening the door of force and the motion is in the same direction therefore it is not the against the direction of motion that's why this option is incorrect .

In the kitchen of your house you would like to run a 240 W blender, a 30 W phone charger, a 720 W toaster oven, and two 120 W li
meriva

Current pulled by these appliances is 10.25 A

Explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the total power used by these appliances.

Total power = 240 + 30 + 720 + (2 × 120) = 1230 W

  • Step 2: Given voltage is 120 V, find the current by using the formula Power = Voltage × Current

⇒ Current(I) = P/V = 1230/120 = 10.25 A

Which term means the distance between two bridge supports?
Ad libitum [116K]

The best answer is b - span.

A span is the distance between two bridge supports The supports may be towers, columns, or even the wall of a canyon.

There are many kinds of bridges  but they all fall into three types namely beam, arch and suspension. The major difference between these three kinds of bridges is the distance that each can cross in  a single span.

For example, a modern beam bridge is likely to span a distance of 200 feet, a modern arch can span 800 or 1000feet,  and a modern suspension bridge can span up to 7000ft.
