The work done is B. 1.2\cdot 10^4 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

For the boat in this problem, we have:

F = 250 N (force applied)

d = 50 m (displacement)

\theta=8.0^{\circ}

Substituting, we find the work done:

W=(250)(50)(cos 8^{\circ})=1.2\cdot 10^4 J

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The population will increase because grasshoppers are the prey.

Explanation:

If there has been a significant decrease in the praying mantis population in recent years. This most likely affect the grasshopper population over time by the population will increase because grasshoppers are the prey. If there is less praying mantis then grasshoppers won't be eaten as much so the population of the grasshoppers will thrive

Voltage needed to raise current to 3.75a using 20,20,200 resistor set
Varvara68 [4.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The voltage needed is 35.7 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

Assuming that the resistors are arranged in parallel combination.

For the resistors arranged in parallel combination:

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

We are given:

R_1=20\Omega\\R_2=20\Omega\\R_3=200\Omega

Using above equation, we get:

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{200}\\\\\frac{1}{R}=\frac{10+10+1}{200}\\\\R=\frac{200}{21}=9.52\Omega

Calculating the voltage by using Ohm's law:

V=IR         .....(1)

where,

V = voltage applied

I = Current = 3.75 A

R = Resistance = 9.52\Omega

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

V=3.75\times 9.52\\\\V=35.7V

Hence, the voltage needed is 35.7 V

Nuclear decay occurs according to first-order kinetics. How long will it take for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams t
dedylja [7]

It will take 267 milliseconds for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams to 0. 50 grams.

We know that half life of a first order reaction is given by: t_{1/2} = 0.693/k

where k = rate of reaction

Given half life = 35 milliseconds

So from this we get k = 0.0198

Now we know that rate of first order reaction is given by: kt= 2.303 * log(R'/R)

where t= time

R'= initial amount = 99 g

R= final amount= 0.50 g

k= rate of reaction = 0.0198

Putting values of these in above equation we get t=267 milliseconds.

i.e. It will take 267 milliseconds for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams to 0. 50 grams.

If a car is traveling at an average speed of 60 kilometers per hour how long does it take to travel 12 kilometers
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes

Explanation:

Given data,

The speed of the car, v = 60 km/h

The distance of travel, d = 12 km

The time taken for the travel is t = ?

The speed is defined as the distance divided by the time taken to travel. The formula for speed is,

                                  v = d/t

∴                                  t = d/v

                                    t = 12 km / 60 km/h

                                    t = 0.2 h

                                     t = 12 minutes

Hence, the time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes.
