The force exerted on the box is 56 N

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

For the box in this problem, we have:

W = 2240 J is the work done

d = 40 m is the displacement of the box

Assuming that the force is parallel to the displacement, $\theta=0$

Solving the equation for F, we find the force exerted on the box:

$F=\frac{W}{d cos \theta}=\frac{2240}{(40)(cos 0)}=56 N$

If the distance between us and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity Group of answer choice

Savatey [412]

Answer:

remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

The luminosity of a star refers to the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w).

The apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second.

The apparent brightness of a star is measured in watts per square meter.

If the distance between us (humans) and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four (4).

Some of the examples of stars are;

- Canopus.

- Sun (closest to the Earth)

- Betelgeuse.

- Antares.

- Vega.

Two stones resembling diamonds are suspected of being fakes. To determine if the stones might be real, the mass and volume of ea

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

stone A is diamond.

Explanation:

given,

Volume of the two stone = 0.15 cm³

Mass of stone A = 0.52 g

Mass of stone B = 0.42 g

Density of the diamond = 3.5 g/cm³

So, to find which stone is gold we have to calculate the density of both the stone.

We know,

$density$ $\density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}$

density of stone A

$\rho_A = \dfrac{0.52}{0.15}$

$\rho_A = 3.467\ g/cm^3$

density of stone B.

$\rho_B = \dfrac{0.42}{0.15}$

$\rho_B = 2.8\ g/cm^3$

Hence, the density of the stone A is the equal to Diamond then stone A is diamond.

A dog is 10 m from a cat, whose speeds are 6 and 5 m / s, respectively. What time does the dog require to catch the cat?

scoray [572]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

because the cat is moving one m/s slower than the dog, the dog has a relative speed of 1 m/s. 10 meters would take 10 seconds for the dog to cover
