What is the net force on a car if the force of friction is 15 N and the forward force due to the engine is 20 N?

ICE Princess25 [194]

5 newton forward because the force of the engine is greater than the force of friction so that means the car is going forward.
You can think of this: when friction is greater than the force of an object its slowing down but when the force of the car is greater than the force of friction its speeding up.
Hope this helps

According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave lengt

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:1.55 times

Explanation:

Given

First wavelength $(\lambda _1)=450 nm$

Second wavelength $(\lambda _2)=700 nm$

According wien's diplacement law

$\lambda T=constant$

where $\lambda =wavelength$

T=Temperature

Let $T_1 and T_2$ be the temperatures corresponding to $\lambda _1 & \lambda _2$ respectively.

$\lambda _1\times T_1=\lambda _2\times T_2$

$\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{\lambda _2}{\lambda _1}$

$\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{700}{450}=1.55$

Thus object with $\lambda 450 nm$ is 1.55 times hotter than object with wavelength $\lambda =700 nm$

Jeff is a landscaping contractor and lifts a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging a board under the rock. Jeff weighs 150 pounds

jonny [76]

Answer: 4

The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force exerted by the object to the force applied to do work on it.

Here, Jeff tried to lift a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging board under the rock. Jeff who weighs 150 pounds uses all his weight to exert force on lever and lift rock.

Mechanical advantage, $M.A.=\frac{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}rock}{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}Jeff}=\frac{600 pounds}{150 pounds}=4.$

Therefore, the mechanical advantage that lever provided to Jeff in lifting rock is 4.

1. A car travels along a straight road to the east for 100 meters in 4 seconds, then go the west for 50 meters in 1 second.

Alla [95]

Answer:

a.Distance = 150 m

b. Displacement = 50 m

Time lapsed = 5 seconds

Explanation:

a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.

The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50

= 150 m

b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,

Displacement of the car = 100 - 50

= 50 m due east

c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.

Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1

= 5 seconds
