The work done is 461.5 J.

<u>Explanation: </u>

According to Kinetics, the work done is calculated as the product of force which has done work, and the displacement it has imposed. Hence,

$\text {Work done}=F \times s$

In the problem, the given data, F = 710 N and s = 0.65 m

By applying the given values to the work done equation, we get as follows,

$\text { Work done } = 710 \times 0.65 = 461.5 \mathrm{J}$

The unit is same as the energy, work done defines when 1 N force acts in a 1 m distance along the force’s direction.

The work done is 6958 J

Explanation:

The work done by the man to raise the weight is the equal to the increase in gravitational potential energy of the weight, so we can write:

$W=mg \Delta h$

where

(mg) is the weight, with m being the mass and g the acceleration of gravity

$\Delta h$ is the change in height of the weight

In this problem, we have

mg = 710 N (weight)

$\Delta h = 0.65 m$

Therefore, the work done is

$W=(710)(9.8)=6,958 J$

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

A force of 30 N stretches a very light ideal spring 0.73 m from equilibrium. What is the force constant (spring constant) of the

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = k*n

F = 30N

k = ???

N = 0.73 M

F = k* N

30N = k * 0.73

k = 30N / 0.73

k = 41.1

A vehicle moving with a uniform a acceleration of 2m/s and has a velocity of 4m/s at a certain time .

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1 second later the vehicle's velocity will be:

$v(1)= 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\$

5 seconds later the vehicle's velocity will be:

$v(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Recall the formula for the velocity of an object under constant accelerated motion (with acceleration " $a$ "):

$v(t)=v_0+a\,t$

Therefore, in this case $v_0=4\,\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $a=2\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

so we can estimate the velocity of the vehicle at different times just by replacing the requested "t" in the expression:

$v(t)=v_0+a\,t\\v(t)=4+2\,\,t\\v(1)=4+2\,(1) = 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\v(5)=4+2\,(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}$

Nuclear _________ reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun. A) fission

Bogdan [553]

Nuclear fusion reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fusion reaction is one among the two nuclear reactions in which the atoms nucleus interact with each other to produce the products. In nuclear fusion, two smaller atoms react together to form a new atom with bigger size.

So large amount of energy is required to start the nuclear fusion reaction. The fusion reactions mostly occurs in stars. The illumination in Stars even the Sun is due to nuclear fusion reaction occurring with the atoms present in them.

Mostly the energy radiated by Sun is due to the protons-protons chain reaction. In this chain reaction, the protons get converted into helium due to nuclear fusion reaction, thus becoming the source of all energy radiated by the Sun.
