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

Which statement best describes why an island's food web could be considered a closed system?
garik1379 [7]
I would say Option B) because Option C) is wrong since matter cannot be created. A closed system does not exchange matter so it's not Option D). Since an island is an isolated area, Option A) is wrong.

How long will it take to travel 200 m traveling at 10 m/s? Follow example below.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

variables  - d = 200m \: v = 10 m {s}^{ - 1}  \\ equation \:   - v =  \frac{d}{t}  \\ 10 = \frac{200}{t}  \\ cross \: multiply \\ 10t = 200 \\  \frac{10t}{10}  =   \frac{200}{10}  \\ t = 20s

It will take 10 seconds to travel 200m at a speed of 10m/s

Explanation:

HOPE THAT THIS IS HELPFUL.

HAVE A GREAT DAY.

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

GPE=mgh

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point

Debbie places two shopping carts in a cart Corral. she pushes the first cart, which then pushes a second cart. what force is bei
Bingel [31]

When Debbie pushes the first cart she is using an applied force. An applied force is created when someone or something pushes another thing using, of course, an applied force. Now, when the second cart is being pushed by the first cart, this is also an applied force. You can tell because the first cart is being pushed using forced and this causes the second cart to be pushed using some of the force that is being transmitted to the first cart.


Debbie exerts applied force on the first cart. The first cart exert applied force on the second cart.
