a 12,000N force for 10km, and the rope connecting the mule to the barge is at a 20 degree angle from the direction of travel, how much work did the mole do on the barge?
A. 12MJ
B. 11MJ

Answer:

W = 112.76MJ

Explanation:

the work is:

W = F_xD

where F_x is the force executed in the direction of the displacement and the d the displacement.

so:

W = 12000Ncos(20)(10000)

we use the cos of the angule because it give us the proyection in the axis x of the force, that means the force in the direction of the displacement.

W = 112.76MJ

If the box weighs 40 newtons and is lifted a distance of 2 meters, how much work is done on the box?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The work done on the box is 80 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of box = 40 N

Distance = 2 meter

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

W=F\times x

W=mg\times x

Where, x = distance

mg = weight

Put the value into the formula

W=40\times2

W= 80\ Nm

W=80\ J

Hence, The work done on the box is 80 J.

What might cause convection currents in a hot spring?
Aleks [24]

Answer and explanation;

-The cause of convention currents in a hot spring is rainwater and melted snow is cool and denser and sinks to the bottom of the hot spring where it is heated by a shallow magma chamber. The heated water expands and is less dense and rises to the top.

Explanation;

-Convention Current is the movement of fluid caused by the differences in temperature. Transference of heat from one part of a fluid to another.

-Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth. In the atmosphere, as air warms it rises, allowing cooler air to flow in underneath.

I need this ASAP<br> Name the three types of perodic maintenance with examples each.
artcher [175]

Predictive maintenance - vibration analysis.

Condition-based maintenance - monitoring pressure reading on Equipment with water systems.

Scheduled maintenance - occurring at repeating intervals is changing a bearing on a conveyor belt every 30 days or inspecting the condition of a motor every 90 days.

Hoping it helps!
