Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 6 \ meters}}$

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance.

$W=F*d$

We know that 96 Joules of work were done and a 16 Newton force was applied to the object.

W= 96 J
F= 16 N

Substitute the values into the formula.

$96 \ J= 16 \ N * d$

First, let's convert the units. This will make cancelling units easier later in the problem. 1 Joule (J) is equal to 1 Newton meter (N*m), so the work of 96 Joules equals 96 Newton meters.

$96 \ N*m= 16 \ N * d$

Now, solve for distance by isolating the variable, d. It is being multiplied by 16 Newtons and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 16 N.

$\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}= \frac{16 \ N *d}{16 \ N}$

$\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}=d$

The units of Newtons cancel.

$\frac {96}{16} \ m = d$

$6 \ m = d$

The object moved a distance of <u>6 meters.</u>

galben [10]

The frequency of a wave is the number of complete oscillations passing a given point per second.

In this case, assuming the duck is stationary, we have 4 complete waves passing the duck in one second: therefore, the frequency of the wave is
$f= \frac{4}{1 s}=4 Hz$

A distant planet with a mass of (7.2000x10^26) has a moon with a mass of (5.0000x10^23). The distance between the planet and the

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:

$F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$ where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.

Filling in:

$F_g=\frac{(6.67*19^{-11})(7.2000*10^{26})(5.0000*10^{23})}{(6.10*10^{11})^2}$ I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.

$F_g=\frac{2.4012*10^{40}}{3.721*10^{23}}$ and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:

$Fg=$ 6.45 × 10¹⁶ N

A low resistance light bulb and a high resistance light bulb are connected in parallel with each other. Which bulb is brighter i

sweet [91]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The bulb with low resistance will be brighter.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The brightness of a bulb is a function of both the voltage across the bulb and current flowing through the bulb. The higher the voltage, the higher the current. Hence the brighter the bulb.

Now, according to the question, the bulbs (the high resistance bulb and the low resistance bulb) are connected in parallel with each other. This means that the same voltage passes across them.

Also, we know that according to Ohm's law, the voltage (V) and current (I) through a conductor are related by the following equation;

V = I x R -------------------(i)

Where;

R is the resistance of the conductor.

We can re-write equation (i) as follows;

I = V / R -----------------------(ii)

According to equation (ii), at fixed voltage (V), the current (I) will increase as the resistance (R) decreases.

Now, since the two bulbs have the same voltage, the bulb with the low resistance will allow a larger flow of current than the bulb with high resistance. Therefore, as said earlier that brightness is dependent on voltage and current, the bulb with the low resistance (and having larger current at some voltage) will be brighter than the bulb with the high resistance (having smaller current at same voltage).
