2. A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 X 103

skad [1K]

Correct Question:-

A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 × 10³

newtons to raise a car 0.25 meter. How much

work is done by the jack?

$\\ \\$

Given :-

$\star \sf \small force = 4.5 \times {10}^{3} \: newton$

$\star \sf \small distance = 0.25 \: meter$

$\\ \\$

To find:-

$\sf \star \: work = \: ?$

$\\ \\$

Solution:-

we know :-

$\bf \dag \boxed{ \rm work = force \times distance}$

$\\ \\$

So:-

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = force \times distance$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times 0.5 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{0 \cancel.5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \cancel \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{4\cancel.5}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{3 - 1} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{1} \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times \cancel{10}}{ \cancel2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times 5}{ 1} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work =225 \times 10$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \bf work =\red{2250\: joule}$

What causes a satellite to move tangentially to a circular path?

yawa3891 [41]

Explanation : We know that two forces acting on the satellite.

The speed of the satellite and the force of the gravity on the satellite then the result , the satellite moves around the earth in a circular motion.

A satellite to move tangentially to a circular path, while revolving around the circular path because the centripetal force is acting on it.

So, we can say gravity is responsible for the motion of the satellite in a circular path.

GP A sinusoidal wave traveling in the negative x direction (to the left) has an amplitude of 20.0 cm, a wavelength of 35.0 cm, a

SIZIF [17.4K]

The period of the wave is determined as 0.083 seconds.

<h3>What is period of a wave?</h3>

The period of a wave is the time taken by a particle of the medium to complete one vibration.

<h3>Period of the wave</h3>

The period of the wave is calculated as follows;

T = 1/f

where;

T is the period of the wave
f is frequency of the wave

T = 1/12

T = 0.083 seconds

Thus, the period of the wave is determined as 0.083 seconds.
