Answer:

W = 725 J

Explanation:

given,

mass of wagon = 20 kg

distance of pull = 40 m

angle made with the horizontal = 25°

tension force on the wagon = 20 N

Work done = ?

Horizontal component of the force will help in movement of the wagon.

Horizontal component of force=

F_x = F cos θ

Work done is equal to force into displacement

W = F.s

W =  F cos θ.s

W = 20 cos 25° x 40

W = 725 J

hence, work done on pulling the wagon is equal to W = 725 J

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

the distance between the​ lawyer's home and her office is 124 miles

Explanation:

given information:

first lets assume that

x-axis (west = positive, east = negative)

y-axis (north = positive, south = negative)

thus,

distance of the house = (-88,18)

distance of the office = (13, -54)

thus, the distance between the​ lawyer's home and her office

R = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

   = √(13 - (-88))² + (-54 -18)²

   = 124 miles

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v
Cerrena [4.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

R= 6370*10^3 m

v = 239m/s

a = 16.5m/s^2

The circumference of the earth would be

\phi = 2\pi R

Velocity is defined as,

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

Here x = \phi, then

t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}

t = 167463.97s

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds

How could two waves on a rope interfere so the rope does not move at all?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

If a crest formed by one wave interferes with a trough formed by the other wave then the rope will not move at all.

Explanation:

Assume a straight rope tied to both ends is at rest. When a wave is created at one end of the rope, it travels to the other end of the rope through formation of alternative crest and trough. Due to these crest and trough the rope shifts up and down.

But when there are two waves travelling through the rope and both have opposite direction (directed towards one another) in such a way that crest formed by one wave is interfering with the trough formed by the other wave then due to this interference the waves will cancel the effects of each other on the rope and rope will be stable.
