Answer:

5.92×10⁷ J

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 15 tons to Newton. This can be obtained as follow:

1 ton = 9806.65 N

Therefore,

15 ton = 15 ton × 9806.65 N / 1 ton

15 ton = 147099.75 N

Next, we shall convert one-quarter (¼) or 0.25 mile to metre. This can be obtained as follow:

100 mi = 160934 m

0.25 mi = 0.25 mi × 160934 / 100 mi

0.25 mi = 402.335 m

Finally, we shall determine the Workdone. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 147099.75 N

Distance (d) = 402.335 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Wd = F × d

Wd = 147099.75 × 402.335

Wd = 5.92×10⁷ J

Thus, the Workdone is 5.92×10⁷ J

A 40-W lightbulb is 1.7 m from a screen. What is the intensity of light incident on the screen? Assume that a lightbulb emits ra
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Intensity, I=1.101\ W/m^2

Explanation:

Power of the light bulb, P  = 40 W

Distance from screen, r = 1.7 m

Let I is the intensity of light incident on the screen. The power acting per unit area is called the intensity of the light. Its formula is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{A}

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

I=\dfrac{40\ W}{4\pi (1.7\ m)^2}

I=1.101\ W/m^2

So, the intensity of light is 1.101\ W/m^2.

How the season affects the price quality and availability of vegetables?
emmainna [20.7K]
Each vegetables and fruits will have different response to the varying temperature and atmospheric condition of the surrounding. Some may become rotten in a shorter period of time. In this regard the price would get lower in order for the goods to get sold easily.

Cora, an electrician, wraps a copper wire with a thick plastic coating. What is she most likely trying to do?
alukav5142 [94]
The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. Cora wrapping the copper wire with a thick plastic coating keeps a current from passing out a wire. The plastic wire here serves as an insulator. An insulator is a material that prevents electricity or current to flow out the circuit. In order to lessen the loss of energy.
