The model bridge captures all the structural attributes of the real bridge, at a reduced scale.
Part a.
Note that volume is proportional to the cube of length. Therefore the actual bridge will have 100^3 = 10^6 times the mass of the model bridge.
Because the model bridge weighs 50 N, the real bridge weighs
(50 N)*10^6 = 50 MN.
Part b.
The model bridge matches the structural characteristics of the actual bridge.
Therefore the real bridge will not sag either.
when a glacier came through the Bronx approximately 240,000 years ago it blocked part of the original path of the Bronx river and subsequently reshaped and modified the path of the river over the past 200 years the rivers course has been altered dramatically by human impact and industry.
have a great day ☺
Answer:
b) 5 J
Explanation:
Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)
To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:
Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j
The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:
Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J
