Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

Power formula is P= W/ Delta t, or we know that W= saclar product of D and F, D=length of distance traveled, F= the applied force, it is W = //D// //F// cos(D, F), when we substitute, we get P=[ //D// //F// cos (D, F)]/ deltat, or //D// = V x delta t, P= [V x delta t x //F// cos(D, F)] / delta t, and then P= V//F//cos(D, F), or V and D have the same direction, so cos(D, F)= cos(V, F), finally  P= V. F (or scalar product of V and F)

The histogram below shows the number of downloads of a song over time.
Allisa [31]

Given data:

  • It is a graphical display where the data is grouped in to ranges
  • A diagram consists rectangles, whose area is proportional to frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.
  • It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data.

<em>From Figure:</em>  

        Each box in the graph (small rectangle box) is assumed to be one download. So, in the graph the time between 8 p.m to 9 p.m, the number of downloads are 8.75 approximately (because the last box is incomplete, therefore 8 complete boxes and 9th is more than half).

<em>So, We conclude that the total number of downloads are approximately 9 in the time span of 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.</em>

What happens when the wire in an electromagnet is wrapped around a soft iron core?
Pavlova-9 [17]
The magnetic particles in a soft iron nail will line up with the magnetic field when the current is switched on. ... When you switch on the current, the coil becomes an electromagnet. But also, the soft iron core becomes a magnet. It will add to the strength of the electromagnet.
