The work that you do on the lever will be the same as the work done by the lever on the rock. This aligns with the Law of the Conservation of Energy which states that energy can not be created nor destroyed. Since work can be calculated as force applied over a distance, you will apply a smaller force but your distance will be longer. The lever will apply a greater force over a shorter distance in proportion to yours. Therefore, the same amount of work is done on both sides of the lever.

A series of pulses of amplitude 0.25 m are sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflected at
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

0m

Explanation:

since the string is rigidly attached to the post, the reflected and incident pulses are of the same amplitude but different polarities. At the point where the two pulses meet, the amplitude will be the addition of that of the incident and the reflected pulses. i.e Amplitude= 0.25 + -0.25=0m

Flying insects such as bees may accumulate a small positive electric charge as they fly. In one experiment, the mean electric ch
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

a) True

Explanation:

There are several possible explanations for this positive charge

* The explanation of the small positive charge in the plant when the bee approaches is like a defense system of the plants,

to prevent the bees from taking the pollen, but the flowers need the bees to transport the pollen for fertilization, so this possibility is not correct

* The air is conductive so the bee indexes a charge in the nearby air, this charge must be negative and this charge induced in the air induces a charge on the flower that must be positive.

When reviewing the different statements we have

a) True, it agrees with the second explanation of the phenomenon

b) False. The earth is a deposit of negative charge

c) false. If this is the case the charge should be negative

d) False. This residual charge from the other bees is quickly neutralized by the charge from the Earth.

A 75.0 kg object decelerates from a speed of 100 m/s to 50 m/s over an interval of 25 seconds. What was the net force acting upo
lukranit [14]

Assuming constant acceleration <em>a</em>, the object has undergoes an acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (50 m/s - 100 m/s) / (25 s) = -2 m/s²

Then the net force has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that, by Newton's second law,

<em>F</em> = (75.0 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>F</em> = (75.0 kg) (-2 m/s²)

<em>F</em> = -150 N

meaning the object is acted upon by a net force of 150 N in the direction opposite the initial direction in which the object is moving.

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 4.5 107 m/s to the right through a magnetic field that is 1.6 T and poi
pickupchik [31]
The answer is letter C. 1.2 10^-11 N up
Solution:
F= Bqvsin(theta)
theta = sin 90 = 1
F= 1.4 T * 1.6x10^-19 * 5.2x10^7 ms^-1
F= 1.16 x 10^-11 N
Then the direction is upward.
