Amy uses 20N of force to push a lawn mower 10 meters. How much work does she do? *

babunello [35]

She does 200J .

We know she uses 20N of force and 10m is the distance. We multiply both numbers and we are given our answer of 200J. Hope this was helpful. :)

A catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots. How much work is required to increase the speed to 16 knots? (One

Andre45 [30]

The work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

If a catamaran with a mass of 5.44×10^3 kg is moving at 12 knots, hence;

5.44×10^3 kg = 12 knots

For an increased speed to 16knots, we will have:

x = 16knots

Divide both expressions

$\frac{5.44 \times 10^3}{x} = \frac{12}{16}\\12x = 16 \times 5.44 \times 10^3\\x = 7.23\times 10^3kg\\$

To get the required work done, we will divide the mass by the speed of one knot to have:

$w=\frac{7230}{0.51}\\w= 14,176.47Joules$

Hence the work that is required to increase the speed to 16 knots is 14,176.47 Joules

What is the minimum value of the friction coefficient between the boxes that will keep them from slipping when the 100 N force i

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The friction coefficient's minimum value will be "0.173".

Explanation:

The given query seems to be incomplete. Below is the attached file of the complete question.

According to the question,

(a)

The net friction force's magnitude will be:

⇒ $F_{net}=ma$

$=5\times 1.7$

$=8.5 \ N$

(b)

For m₃,

⇒ $ma=\mu m_3 g$

Or,

⇒ $\mu=\frac{a}{g}$

$=\frac{1.7}{9.8}$

$=0.173$

Light travels faster in warmer air. On a sunny day, the sun can heat a road and create a layer of hot air above it. Let's model

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Explanation:

If we assume there is a sharp boundary between the two masses of air, there will be a refraction. The refractive index of each medium will depend on the relative speeds of light.

n = c / v

If light travels faster in warmer air, it will have a lower refractive index

nh < nc

Snell's law of refraction relates angles of incidence and refracted with the indexes of refraction:

n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2)

sin(θ2) = sin(θ1) * n1/n2

If blue light from the sky passing through the hot air will cross to the cold air, then

n1 = nh

n2 = nc

Then:

n1 < n2

So:

n1/n2 < 1

The refracted light will come into the cold air at angle θ2 wich will be smaller than θ1, so the light is bent upwards, creating the appearance of water in the distance, which is actually a mirror image of the sky.
