Answer:

○ 0 $\checkmark$

Explanation:

Even if the athelete runs four laps of a 400 m track, its displacement will be 0 because the displacement is the shortest distance from its to final position. And, here the final and initial position is same since he comes to its initial position after covering certain distance. So, displacement is 0.

You drag a crate across a floor with a rope. The force applied is 750 N and the angle of the rope is 25.0° above the horizontalH

frez [133]

The work done by a constant force along a rectilinear motion when the force and the displacement vector are not colinear is given by:

$W=F\cos\theta\cdot d$

where F is the magnitude of the force, theta is the angle between them and d is the distance.

The problen gives the following data:

The magnitude of the force 750 N.

The angle between the force and the displacement which is 25°

The distance, 26 m.

Plugging this in the formula we have:

$\begin{gathered} W=\left(750\right)\left(\cos25\right)\left(26\right) \\ W=17673 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the work done is 17673 J.

The power is given by:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

the problem states that the time it takes is 6 s. Then:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{17673}{6} \\ P=2945.5 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the power is 2945.5 W

the height of seven falls in colorado is 5/2 the height of twin falls in idahi. the sum of the two heights is 420 ft. find the h

Masja [62]

Let height of twin falls = x
height of seven falls = 2.5x

x + 2.5x = 420
3.5x = 420
x = 420/3.5 = 120

so twin falls = x = 120 ft
seven falls = 2.5x = 300 ft

2. What do you understand by balanced and unbalanced force

labwork [276]

Answer:

forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction. Balanced forces do not result in any change in motion. unbalanced. forces: forces applied to an object in opposite directions that are not equal in size. Unbalanced forces result in a change in motion.
