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

What physical characteristics of sound can be used to determine the energy carried by sound waves? Explain.
padilas [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

It transmits energy into the medium through its vibration. More energetic vibration corresponds to larger amplitude. The molecules move back and forth more vigorously. The loudness of a sound is also determined by the sensitivity of the ear.
