Answer:

170 N

Explanation:

Given in the question that, work a bulldozer can do = 4500 J

We will use trigonometry identity to find the distance bulldozer will travel up the hill

sin(35) = opp/hypo

sin(35) = 15/hypo

hypo = 15/sin(35)

hypo = 26.15m

Formula to use

work done = force × distance

Plug values in the above formula

4500 = force x 26.15

force = 4500/26.15

force = 172.08

force ≈ 170 N

Mr. Galonski loves to use the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Create a scenario in which Mr. Galonski is using waves from the electrom

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Scenario:

On a normal Sunday afternoon Mr. Golanski is sitting in his living room reading his book. He decides after a while to turn on the Television to see what’s on the news, (Mr. Golanski is using Radio waves when he turns his television on by signaling the TV from his remote control). After a few hours Mr. Golanski decides it’s time to have dinner. He heats up a quick meal in his microwave because he doesn’t have the patience for cooking. (He is using microwave radiation to heat his food because water molecules in food absorb the radiation). He sits down for his meal, and halfway through he starts to choke! In a panicked frenzy he runs to his bathroom to try and dislodge the obstacle from his throat. By doing so he switched on the fluorescent lights in his bathroom exposing himself to small amounts of ultraviolet radiation. (Fluorescent lights absorb UV radiation and transmit visible light along with small amounts of UV light). Unable to dislodge the obstacle from his throat Mr. Golanski seeks help from his neighbor who drives him straight to the ER. To treat him properly the physicians opt for a fluoroscopy to examine Mr. Golanski’s esophageal tract. (Thus he is making use of X-ray imaging to obtain a visual of his internal esophageal structure to check for the obstruction). Once treated and discharged from the hospital Mr. Golanski returns home grateful to have survived this ordeal with minimum damage.

Explanation:

The Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of frequencies and wavelengths for different light waves. They range with increasing frequency from Radio waves, to Microwaves, to Infrared waves, to Visible waves, to Ultraviolet waves, to Infrared waves, to X-rays, and to Gamma rays. Several of which we use in our daily lives such as Radio waves when operating our television or using our cellular phones. We also use microwaves to heat our food or for communication with satellites. We are also exposed to natural Ultraviolet radiation from the sun; however, we can also get exposed to other forms such as from certain types of light bulbs. We see visible light in the form of all the colors we can detect around us. We make use of x-rays for imaging techniques widely used in medicine for diagnostics, as well as Infrared waves in our home security systems. The electromagnetic spectrum is always used as a part of our everyday life.

A 20.0 cm tall object is placed 50.0 cm in front of a convex mirror with a radius of curvature of 34.0 cm. Where will the image

Neko [114]

Answer:

1.Theimage will be located at -0.13m or -13 cm

2.The height of the image will be 0.052m or 5.2cm

Explanation:

Given that;

Height of object, h=20 cm = 0.2m

Object distance in front of convex mirror, o,= 50 cm =0.5m

Radius of curvature, r, =34 cm =0.34m

Let;

Image distance, i,=?

Image height, h'=?

You know that focal length,f, is half the radius of curvature,hence

f=r/2 = 0.34/2 = 0.17m ( this length is inside the mirror, in a virtual side, thus its is negative)

f= -0.17m

Apply the relationship that involves the focal length;

$=\frac{1}{o} +\frac{1}{i} =\frac{1}{f}$

$=\frac{1}{0.5} +\frac{1}{i} =-\frac{1}{0.17}$

Re-arrange to get i

$\frac{1}{i} =-2-5.88\\\\\\\frac{1}{i} =-7.88\\\\i=-0.13m$

This is a virtual image formed at a negative distance produced through extension of drawing rays behind the mirror if you use rays to locate the image behind the mirror

Apply the magnification formula

magnification, m=height of image÷height of object

$m=\frac{h'}{h} =-\frac{i}{o}$

substitute the values to get the height of image h'

$\frac{h'}{0.20} =-\frac{-0.13}{0.5} \\\\\\h'=\frac{0.13*0.20}{0.5} \\\\\\h'=\frac{0.025}{0.5} =0.052m\\\\\\h'=5.2cm$

Eating an orange enables a person to perform about 3.5x10^4 J of work. To what height does eating and orange enable a 55kg woman

crimeas [40]

Joules is a unit for work which may decomposed into N.m. Work is a quantity which is a product of force (in this case, the woman's weight) and the distance she has traveled.

W = F x d ; d = W / F

Substituting the given,

d = (3.5 x 10^4 J) / (55 kg x 9.8 m/s²) = 64.94 m

Thus, the woman can climb up to 64.94 meters.
