Answer:

<em>The student 1 pushes to the left, the student 2 pushed to the right</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Work</u>

The work done by a force F on an object moving a distance X and making an angle \theta with the force is given by

W=F.X.cos\theta

If the force and the distance point in the same direction, the angle is 0 and the work is positive.

If the force and the distance point in opposite directions, the angle is 180° and the work is negative.

We know the glider moves to the left and the student 1 always does positive work, thus he must be pushing the block to the left to have the same direction.

The same can be applied to the second student who does a negative work when the block goes to the left, so he must be pushing to the right direction.

Summary: The student 1 pushes to the left, the student 2 pushed to the right

Your friends sit in a sled in the snow. If you apply a force pf 75 N to them, they have an acceleration of 0.9 m/s ^ 2. What is
Elza [17]

Answer:

Mass of the sled in the snow 83.33 kg.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,  

Force applied to move the sled in the snow (F) = 75N

\text { Acceleration }(a)=0.9 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

We know that

Newton's second law of motion is  

\text { Force }=\text { mass } \times \text { acceleration }

F = ma (Or "force" is equal to "mass" times "acceleration".)

So if we move this around we can isolate mass and get mass

\text { Mass }=\frac{\text { force }}{\text { accelearation }}

\mathrm{M}=\frac{75}{0.9}

M = 83.33 kg

Mass of the sled in the snow <u>83.33 kg.</u>

A generator uses a coil that has 100 turns and a 0.50-T magnetic field. The frequency of this generator is 60.0 Hz, and its emf
lana [24]

Answer:

38 m

Explanation:

Number of turns=N=100

Magnetic field=B=0.50 T

Frequency of the generator=f=60 Hz

Rms value of emf=E_{rms}=120 V

We have to find the length of the wire from which the coil is made.

Peak value of emf=E_0=E_{rms}\sqrt 2=120\times \sqrt 2=169.7 V

Length of wire=4\sqrt{\frac{NE_0}{2\pi fB}}

Substitute the values

Length of wire=4\times \sqrt{\frac{169.7\times 100}{0.50\times 2\pi\times 60}}

Length of wire=38 m

Hence, the length of wire from which the coil is made=38 m

Hey!!

here is your answer >>>

We know that, acids and strong bases are good conductors of electricity!. And gold conducts electricity , while the best is silver and niext comes gold!. And H20 which is water contains less ions , so it is not a good conductors , it is a conductors but not a good conductor!. Salt in it's solid for cannot produce ions, hence, it cannot conduct electricity , but when this salt is mixed with water or when it is in it's molten state it can conduct electricity!. So now,the answer for the question is ,

B) III and IV only!.

Hope my answer helps!
