Answer: 588 joules

Explanation:

Work is done when force is applied on an object over a distance ( whether vertical or horizontal). It is measured in joules.

Thus, Workdone = Force X distance

- Vertical distance to be moved by the brick = 12 metres

- Mass of box = 5kg

- Acceleration due to gravity when box was lifted represented by g is a constant with value of 9.8m/s^2

Now, recall that Force = Mass x acceleration due to gravity

i.e Force = 5kg x 9.8m/s^2

Force = 49 Newton

So, Workdone = Force X Distance

Workdone = 49 Newton X 12 metres

Workdone = 588 joules

Thus, 588 joules of work was done.

A bag of cement weighing 325 N hangs in equilibrium from three wires. Two of the wires make angles of theta1=60.0 degrees and th
Murljashka [212]
The sketch of the system is: two strings, 1 and 2, are attached to the ceiling and to a third string, 3.The third string holds the bag of cement. 

The free body diagram of the weight with the string 3, drives to the tension T3 = weihgt => T3 = 325 N

The other free body diagram is around the joint of the three strings.

In this case, you can do the horizontal forces equilibrium equation as:

T1* cos(60) - T2*cos(40) = 0

And the vertical forces equilibrium equation:

Ti sin(60) + T2 sin(40) = T3 = 325 N

Then you have two equations with two unknown variables, T1 and T2

0.5 T1 - 0.766 T2 = 0

 0.866 T1 + 0.643T2 = 325

When you solve it you get, T1 = 252.8 N and T2 = 165 N

Answer: T1 = 252.8 N, T2 = 165N, and T3 = 325N

a hiker walks 200 m west and then walks 100 m north in what direction is her resulting displacement draw to show your answer​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The direction of the displacement is in North-West.

Explanation:

Resultant displacement D is

=\sqrt{(200)^{2} + (100)^{2} } \\=223.60m                        

Here the direction is

\Theta =tan^{^{-1}}\left ( \frac{100}{200} \right )\\\Theta =26.6^{o}

Then the direction is 26.6^{o} North-west.

A motorcycle running on gasoline wastes a large amount of energy mainly as A) heat energy and sound energy. B) light energy and
vlada-n [284]

A motorcycle mainly wastes energy as heat <u>energy</u> and <u>sound</u> energy. In the engine, chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. However, the engine is inefficient and much of the chemical energy is lost as heat energy. Also, some of the energy is transformed to sound energy. This explains why the motorcycle is noisy and has an exhaust pipe.
