Answer:

d. N*m

Explanation:

Workdone which is measured in Joules is calculated using the formula;

Workdone = force * distance

Where;

Force is measured in Newton

Distance is measured in meters.

Therefore, workdone also has the measurement of Newton-meters.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The strength of gravity decreases.

An example of that would be if you were in space; you float around because there's no gravity.

A 2,000 g quantity of C-14 is left to undergo radioactive decay. The half-life of C-14 is approximately 5,700 years. After going

Katyanochek1 [597]

Start with 2,000 grams.
After 1 half-life, 1,000 grams are left.
After another half-life, 500 are left.
After another half-life, 250 are left.
After another half-life, 125 are left.

That was FOUR half-lifes.

X = 4 .

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level

Genrish500 [490]

Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.

Density: Two blocks, A and B, are put in a tank of water. Block A has a density of 1.21 g/cm³. Block B has a density of 1.37 g/c

stira [4]

Answer:

Block A

Explanation:

Block A will float higher in the water compared to the second Block.

The density of water is 1g/cm³.

According to the principle of floatation "an object that floats in a liquid will displace equal amount of fluid to the weight of the object".

A body will become more submerged in water if it has more density because density is the mass per volume of body.

An object with a higher density than another will sink in the liquid of the one with lesser density.

Object A has lesser density and will float higher up and displace very little water.
Object B has higher density and will be more submerged.

three girls were pushing the same car with a net force of 450 N [N48°E]. Two of the girls were pushing with forces of 310 N [N25

ElenaW [278]

The net force is the vector

∑ F = (450 N) (cos(42°) i + sin(42°) j)

and two of the forces provided by the girls are

F₁ = (310 N) (cos(115°) i + sin(115°) j)

F₂ = (250 N) (cos(285°) i + sin(285°) j)

Then the force provided by the third girl is the vector

F₃ = ∑ F - F₁ - F₂

F₃ = ((450 N) cos(42°) - (310 N) cos(115°) - (250 N) cos(285°)) i

… … … + ((450 N) sin(42°) - (310 N) sin(115°) - (250 N) sin(285°)) j

F₃ ≈ (400.722 N) i + (261.635 N) j

So, the third girl provided a force of magnitude

||F₃|| = √((400.722 N)² + (261.635 N)²) ≈ 478.572 N ≈ 480 N

pointing in a direction

arctan((261.635 N)/(400.722 N)) ≈ 33.1409° ≈ 33°

relative to East which refers to 0°; that is, 33° N of E or E33°N. Since the other forces are given relative to North or South, we can write this direction as N57°E.

So, the third girl pushed with force 480 N [N57°E].
