Answer:

The work done on the suitcase is, W = 1691 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The force on the suitcase is, F  = 89 N

The distance Russell dragged the suitcase, S = 19 m

The work done on the suitcase by Russell is equal to the work done on the suitcase to overcome the friction

The work done on the suitcase by Russell is given by the formula

                          W = F · S

Substituting the given values,

                           W = 89 N x 19 m

                           W = 1691 J

Hence, the work done on the suitcase is, W = 1691 J

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?
RoseWind [281]
I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

What is the origin of magma
sveta [45]
Magma forms by partial melting of upper mantle and crust. Partial melt means that only a fraction of the available material forms a melt, and that the remainder stays solid. The partial melt rises because of its lower density and ascends through he crust.

A power plant running at 39 % efficiency generates 330 MW of electric power. Part A At what rate (in MW) is heat energy exhauste
marusya05 [52]

516.154 megawatts of heat are <em>exhausted</em> to the river that cools the plant.

By definition of energy efficiency, we derive an expression for the energy rate exhausted to the river (Q_{out}), in megawatts:

Q_{out} = Q_{in} - W

Q_{out} = \left(\frac{1}{\eta}-1 \right)\cdot W(1)

Where:

  • \eta - Efficiency.
  • W - Electric power, in megawatts.

If we know that \eta = 0.39 and W = 330\,MW, then the energy rate exhausted to the river is:

Q_{out} = \left(\frac{1}{0.39}-1 \right)\cdot (330\,MW)

Q_{out} = 516.154\,MW

516.154 megawatts of heat are <em>exhausted</em> to the river that cools the plant.

What are the two ost important processes in the oxygen in and out of the atmospher
BaLLatris [955]
Decomposing - When plants and animals die, they decompose. This process uses up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Rusting - This is also called oxidation. When things rust they use up oxygen.

Monochromatic light falls on two very narrow slits 0.046 mm apart. Successive fringes on a screen 6.20 m away are 8.9 cm apart n
Elanso [62]

Answer:

λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m

Explanation:

In a double-slit interference experiment, the distance y of the maximum of order m from the center of the observed interference pattern on the screen is given as ;

y = mλD/d

Where;

D is the distance of the screen from the slits = 6.2 m

d is the distance between the two slits = 0.046 mm = 0.046 x 10^(-3) m

The fringes on the screen are 8.9 cm = 0.089 m apart from each other, this means that the first maximum (m=1) is located at y = 0.089 m from the center of the pattern.

Therefore, from the previous formula we can find the wavelength of the light:

y = mλD/d

So, λ = dy/mD

Thus,

λ = (0.046 x 10^(-3) x 0.089)/(1 x 6.2)

λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
