48J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the book = 16N

Height of the shelf = 3m

Unknown:

Work done to raise the book = ?

Solution:

Work done is defined as the product of force and distance. The force here is the weight of the book which signifies that it was carried in the vicinity of gravitational force.

Work done = Force x distance = weight x distance

Weight is a type of force;

Input the parameters;

Work done = 16 x 3 = 48J

The unit of workdone is in Joules

A 500 500500- kg kgstart text, k, g, end text object is accelerating to the right at 10 cm / s 2 10 cm/s 2 10, start text, space

enyata [817]

Given Information:

Mass = m = 500 kg

Acceleration = a = 10 cm/s²

Required Information:

Magnitude of rightward net force = F = ?

Answer:

Magnitude of rightward net force = 50 N

Explanation:

From the Newton's second law of motion

F = ma

Where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

To get force in Newtons first convert 10 cm/s² into m/s²

10/100 = 0.1 m/s²

F = 500*0.1

F = 50 N

Therefore, the magnitude of rightward net force acting on it is 50 Newtons.

Write down an equation describing a sinusoidal traveling wave (in 1-D). Tell us (words and/or equations) what in your equation t

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The standard equation of the sinusoidal wave in one dimension is given by

$y = A Sin\left ( \frac{2\pi }{\lambda }\left ( vt-x \right )+\phi \right )$

Here, A be the amplitude of the wave

λ be the wavelength of the wave

v be the velocity of the wave

Φ be the phase angle

x be the position of the wave

t be the time

this wave is travelling along positive direction of X axis

The frequency of wave is f which relates with velocity and wavelength as given below

v = f x λ

The relation between the time period and the frequency is

f = 1 / T.

A charge +1.9 μC is placed at the center of the hollow spherical conductor with the inner radius 3.8 cm and outer radius 5.6 cm.

Archy [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to load balancing. We will begin by defining what charges are acting inside and which charges are placed outside.

PART A)

The charge of the conducting shell is distributed only on its external surface. The point charge induces a negative charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell:

$Q_{int}=-Q1=-1.9*10^{-6} C$ . This is the total charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell.
