Answer:

the given statement is False

Explanation:

given,                                                          

distance of the trail = 2000 miles long          

each rider traveled = 100 miles                        

every fresh horse travel = 10 miles                    

to maintain speed of = 10 mile/hr                      

the given statement is                                            

150 horses is used for each delivery.                    

if each horse is allowed to travel 10 miles to travel

distance traveled using 150 horses = 150 x 10

                                                            = 1500 miles

to travel 2000 miles horse required is equal to 200.

so, the given statement is False

Answer:

4. 7.59276

Explanation:

Add up the x components:

Aₓ + Bₓ + Cₓ = 5 − 1.6 + 2.4 = 5.8

Add up the y components:

Aᵧ + Bᵧ + Cᵧ = -2.4 + 3.3 + 4 = 4.9

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude:

√(x² + y²)

√(5.8² + 4.9²)

√57.65

A 55 newton force applied on an object moves the object 10 meters in the same direction as the force. What is the value of work
kifflom [539]

Answer: Option D: 5.5×10²Joules

Explanation:

Work done is the product of applied force and displacement of the object in the direction of force.

W = F.s = F s cosθ

It is given that the force applied is, F = 55 N

The displacement in the direction of force, s = 10 m

The angle between force and displacement, θ = 0°

Thus, work done on the object:

W = 55 N × 10 m × cos 0° = 550 J = 5.5 × 10² J

Hence, the correct option is D.

A load of 1 kW takes a current of 5 A from a 230 V supply. Calculate the power factor.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Load = 1 Kw = 1000 watt

Current (I) = 5 A

Supply (V) = 230 V

Find:

Power factor.

Computation:

Power factor = watts / (V)(I)

Power factor = 1,000 / (230)(5)

Power factor = 1,000 / (1,150)

Power factor = 0.8695

Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)
