Answer:24 m

Explanation:

Given

Distance of Fran from home is 7 miles

Distance between Ben and Fran is 1 mile more than the distance of ben from home

let distance of ben from home is x miles

therefore distance between ben and Fran is x+1 miles

using Pythagoras

7^2+x^2=(x+1)^2

49+x^2=x^2+1+2x

48=2 x

x=24

What do you mean by pressure of a liquid? Write its Sl unit.​
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure of a liquid is the rate of the force applied by the liquid on a surface per unit area of the surface.

i.e P = \frac{F}{A}

where P is the pressure, F is the force and A is the area.

The depth of the liquid determines its pressure at a definite lower point. As the pressure of a liquid at the bottom of a its container is greater than the pressure at the top of the liquid.

Thus,

P = σhg

where P is the pressure, σ is the density of the liquid, h is the height and g is the force of gravity.

It is measured in Pascals or Nm^{-2}.

The pressure of liquid has a lot of applications, viz: siphon, force pump, lift pump etc.

A 42 N net force is applied to a box which slides horizontally across a floor for 9.0
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The Amount of work is done on the box by the net force is 378 Joules.

Explanation:

Given:

A 42 N net force is applied to a box which slides horizontally across a floor.

Force = 42 N

Force applied for a displacement of 9.0 m

Displacement = 9.0 m

To Find:

Amount of work is done on the box by the net force = ?

i.e Work = ?

Solution:

When a force causes a object to move, work is being done on the object by the force. Work is the measure of energy transfer when a force (F) moves an object through a distance (d).

Formula is given by

Work=Force\times Displacement

Substituting the given values we get

∴ Work = 42 × 9.0

∴ Work = 378 N-m

or

∴ Work = 378 Joules

The Amount of work is done on the box by the net force is 378 Joules.

Which of the following states that all matter tends to "warp" space in its vicinity and that objects react to this warping by ch
Kruka [31]
Einstein's theory of General Relativity states that space-time is able to be warped in the presence of mass or energy.  This warping is what "tells" matter how to move in its presence.  In the paraphrased words of physicist John Wheeler, matter tells space-time how to warp, and warped space-time tells matter how to move.
