Samantha is refinishing her rusty wheelbarrow. She moves her sandpaper back and forth 45 times over a rusty area, each time movi

ng with a total distance of 0.12 m. Samantha pushes the sandpaper against the surface with a normal force of 2.6 N. The coefficient of friction for the metal/sandpaper interface is 0.92. How much work is done by the normal force during the sanding process

Answer:

W = 12.96 J

Explanation:

The force acting in the direction of motion of the sand paper is the frictional force. So, we first calculate the frictional force:

F = μR

where,

F = Friction Force = ?

μ = 0.92

R = Normal Force = 2.6 N

Therefore,

F = (0.92)(2.6 N)

F = 2.4 N

Now, the displacement is given as:

d = (0.12 m)(45)

d = 5.4 m

So, the work done will be:

W = F d

W = (2.4 N)(5.4 m)

<u>W = 12.96 J</u>

An alarm clock has a resistance of 14,000 ohms and is plugged into a 120-volt outlet. How much power does the clock use?
yan [13]

Power used by the clock=1.03 W

Explanation:

resistance= 14000 ohm

voltage=120 V

The formula for the power is given by

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

P=(120)²/14000

P=1.03 W

A plant cell is no longer capable of capturing energy from sunlight and converting it into chemical energy. Which organelle is m
Nadya [2.5K]

The chloroplast of the cell is most likely damaged if the plant cell is no longer capable of capturing energy from sunlight and converting it into chemical energy.

The chloroplast is the structure inside the leaf cell that is known for capturing light energy from the sun.

This light energy is then used to make food that has chemical energy. If a plant cell has a damaged chloroplast or the chloroplast is removed, then it will no longer be able to trap the light energy. As a result, the process of photosynthesis will not occur in the plant cell. The plant cell will not be able to make the chemical energy required for functioning.

A fox runs at a speed of 16 m/s and then stops to eat a rabbit. If this all took 120
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a = 52s²

Explanation:

<u>How to find acceleration</u>

Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction.

<u>Solve</u>

We know initial velocity (u = 16), velocity (v = 120) and acceleration (a = ?)

We first need to solve the velocity equation for time (t):

v = u + at

v - u = at

(v - u)/a = t

Plugging in the known values we get,

t = (v - u)/a

t = (16 m/s - 120 m/s) -2/s2

t = -104 m/s / -2 m/s2

t = 52 s
