Which of the following is NOT a good way to reduce fuel consumption?

How much work is done when a 4.0-newton box is carried horizontally a distance of 2.0 meters at a constant velocity?

monitta

Answer: Work done by the box will be 8 Joules.

Explanation:

Work done by a substance is the product of the force applied on it and the displacement of a substance.

Mathematically,

$W=F.s$

Where,

W = work done = ? J

F = Force applied = 4 N

s = displacement = 2 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$W=4N\times 2m=8Nm=8J$

Hence, work done by the box will be 8 Joules.

Question 3 (1 point)

FrozenT [24]

The force of friction is equal to the pushing force, and the acceleration is zero

Explanation:

In this problem, we are pushing a piano along the floor, in the horizontal direction.

There are 2 forces acting in the horizontal direction on the piano:

The applied force, $F_a$ , acting forward
The force of friction, $F_f$ , acting backward

Therefore, the net force in the horizontal direction is

$\sum F = F_a - F_f$

According to Newton's second law, the net force is equal to the product between the piano's mass (m) and its acceleration:

$\sum F = ma$

Combining the two equations,

$F_a - F_f = ma$

However, we are also told that the piano moves at constant speed, therefore the acceleration is zero:

$a=0$

And so,

$F_a - F_f = 0\\F_f = F_a$

which means that the force of friction is equal to the applied force.

Which describes the two parts of a measurement? a unit and a symbol a conversion factor and a number a symbol and a conversion f

wariber [46]

<h2>Right answer: a number and a unit</h2>

The measurement consists in <em>comparing a selected pattern with the object or phenomenon whose physical magnitude is going to be measured, to find out how many times the pattern is contained in that magnitude.</em> That is, it is about identifying or quantifying a particular characteristic or aspect of a particular object or construct.

Now, a well done measurement has two parts:

-The number gives us information about the quantity of the measurement, or in other words, the magnitude of the measurement and its precision.

-The units gives us information about the property that is being measured. This is quite important, because a measurement or result with no units is useless.

Note the units may be expressed with letter or symbols, depending on what we are measuring.

A car speeds up from 14 meters per second to 21 meters per second in 6 seconds. Whats the acceleration and the distance passed w

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

a = 1.666... m/s²

Explanation:

a = v2 - v1 / t2 - t1

a = 21m/s - 14m/s / 6s - 0s

a = 7m/s / 6s

a = 1.666... m/s²

PLEASE HELP A student climbs to the top of a press box where the cameras are. He wonders how many meters he is off of the ground

Feliz [49]

The height of the rail on top of the press box where the ball was dropped from is 11.025 m.

The given parameters:

Time of motion of the ball, t = 1.5 s
Let the height of the rail = h

<h3>Maximum height of fall;</h3>

The maximum height through which the ball was dropped from is calculated by applying second equation of motion;

$h = v_0_y t + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = \frac{1}{2} (9.8) (1.5)^2\\\\h = 11.025 \ m$

Thus, the height of the rail on top of the press box where the ball was dropped from is 11.025 m.
