On Monday while Johnny was getting ready for school, he was in the bathroom holding his comb when he got an itch on his head. Jo

hnny used the comb to rub his itch away and when he did his hair was a mess. He turned on the faucet so there was a small stream of water flowing and as he brought the comb near the water to dampen it, he noticed that the water was pulling towards the comb. Thinking he was seeing things, he pulled the comb back and the water was flowing straight down. He again moved the comb near the stream of water and the water again was pulling towards the comb. He repeated this process many times and the water continued to move towards the comb when the comb was near the water.
What do you think is happening to the stream of water flowing from the faucet?
Support you claim in Question 1, by explaining why you think it is happening.

suppose that 273 g of one of the substances listed above displaces 26 mL of water. What is the substance?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The unknown substance is silver. I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so 273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following: 10.07 Actinium 10.22 Molybdenum 10.5 Silver 11.35 Lead And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>

A boat radioed a distress call to a Coast Guard station. At the time of the call, a vector A from the station to the boat had a
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

d = 39.7 km

Explanation:

initial position of the boat is 45 km away at an angle of 15 degree East of North

so we will have

r_1 = 45 sin15 \hat i + 45 cos15 \hat j

r_1 = 11.64 \hat i + 43.46\hat j

after some time the final position of the boat is found at 30 km at 15 Degree North of East

so we have

r_2 = 30 cos15\hat i + 30 sin15 \hat j

r_2 = 28.98\hat i + 7.76 \hat j

now the displacement of the boat is given as

d = r_2 - r_1

d = (28.98\hat i + 7.76 \hat j) - (11.64 \hat i + 43.46\hat j)

d = 17.34 \hat i - 35.7 \hat j

so the magnitude is given as

d = \sqrt{17.34^2 + 35.7^2}

d = 39.7 km

Solve for work when
BlackZzzverrR [31]

So, <u>the value of the work is approximately 84.65 J</u>.

<h2>Introduction</h2>

Hi ! Here I will help you to discuss the subject about work that caused by force in amount value of angle. Work is affected by the force and displacement.

  • If related to the magnitude of the force, the amount of work will be proportional to the magnitude of the applied force. Thats mean, if the value of the force that applied on it is greater, then the value of the work will be greater.
  • If related to the magnitude of shift, the amount of work will be proportional to the magnitude of shift of object. Thats mean, if the value of the shift on it is greater, then the value of the work will be greater.
<h3>Formula Used</h3>

The work done by a moving object can be expressed in the equation:

If the Angle Is Ignored

\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times s}}}

If the Angle Effect on Work

\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times s \times \cos(\theta)}}}

With the following condition:

  • W = work that done by object (J)
  • F = force that applied (N)
  • s = shift or distance (m)
  • \sf{\theta} = angle of elevation (°)

<h3>Solution</h3>

We know that :

  • F = force that applied = \sf{1.41 \times 10^4} N
  • s = shift or distance = 84.9 m
  • \sf{\theta} = angle of elevation = 45°

What was asked ?

  • W = work that done by object = ... J

Step by step :

\sf{W = F \times s \times \cos(\theta)}

\sf{W = (1.41 \cdot 10^4) \times 84.9 \times \cos(45^o)}

\sf{W = (1.41 \cdot 10^4) \times 84.9 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}

\sf{W = 119.709 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}

\sf{W = 59.8545 \sqrt{2}}

\boxed{\sf{W \approx 84.65 \: J}}

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the value of the work is approximately 84.65 J.
