1.

Answer:

Hand on book

Earth on book

Explanation:

Since we are holding the book so the forces that acts on the book is

1. Hand on book

this is the contact force between hand and the book

2. Earth on book

here this is the gravitational attraction force of earth on the book

2.

Answer:

A. book on hand  - NA

B. hand on book  - upwards

C. floor on book  - NA

D. earth on book - downwards

Explanation:

Since book is holding in hand so at equilibrium position we can say that the forces on the book must be in equilibrium

so first of all the force of attraction due to earth on the book is downwards and this is counterbalanced by the force of hand on book which is upwards.

3.

Answer:

A. book on hand  

Explanation:

As per Newton's III law we know that every action has equal and opposite reaction.

so if our hand apply the force on the book in upward direction then book will apply same magnitude force on the hand in downward direction.

A ship, carrying freshwater to a desert island in the caribbean, has a horizontal cross-sectional area of 2800 m2 at the waterli
Alex17521 [72]
<span>Due that we already know the horizontal cross-sectional area of the ship, which is 2800 m2 and we are going to understand that value keeps constant for the whole 9.5 of height of the ship from the waterline till the new waterline after unloading, then we just need to calculate the volume as follows: V = A * H , where V is volume, A is area and H is height V= 2,800 * 9.5 = 26,600 m3 So this volum of 26,600 cubic meters is the volum of freshwater delivered in the island.</span>

Calculate the change in length of concrete sidewalk (coefficient of linear expansion for concrete is 12*10^-6/celcius) that is 1
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.4 cm

Explanation:

This problem refers to calculate the change in length in one dimension due to a change in temperature.

Data

α = 12 x 10⁻⁶

Lo = 150 meters

ΔT = 30 °C

Formula

                    ΔL/Lo = αΔT

solve for ΔL

                    ΔL = αLoΔT

Substitution

                    ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶)(150)(30)

Simplification

                    ΔL = 0054 m = 5.4 cm

Where would a new neuron come from
erica [24]
Neurogenesis does not occur everywhere in the brain but is evident in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb and perhaps in the cerebral cortex. New neurons are born not from mature nerve cells but rather develop from neural stem cells that remain in our brains throughout life.

a typical cmall flashlight contains two batteries each having na emf of 2.0 v connected in series with a bulb havin ga resistanc
Helen [10]

Answer:

P = 0.25 W

Explanation:

Given that,

The emf of the battry, E = 2 V

The resistance of a bulb, R = 16 ohms

We need to find the power delivered to the bulb. We know that, the formula for the power delivered is given by :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\P=\dfrac{2^2}{16}\\\\=0.25\ W

So, 0.25 W power is delivered to the bulb.
