A woman steps in front of a child to keep him from running off. which term best describes this example? negative work positive w

lana [24]

Answer:

negative force

Explanation:

Here woman is applying the force to stop the child or to prevent him from running.

Here we know that the force applied by the woman is opposite to the motion of child but here the child is not displaced by this applied force but the child is only prevented his running.

So here the work done by the woman is zero as there is no displacement by this force.

But here we can say that the the force of woman is against the motion of child so here this force is opposite force and hence it is termed as negative force here.

so correct answer will be

negative force

A wire has a cross sectional area of 4.00 mm2 and is stretched by 0.100 mm by a certain force. How far will a wire of the same m

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: $0.05\ mm$

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of wire $A_1=4\ mm^2$

Extension of wire $\delta l=0.1\ mm$

Extension in a wire is given by

$\Rightarrow \delta l=\dfrac{FL}{AE}$

where, $E=\text{Youngs modulus}$

$\Rightarrow \delta_1=\dfrac{FL}{A_1E}\quad \ldots(i)$

for same force, length and material

$\Rightarrow \delta_2=\dfrac{FL}{A_2E}\quad \ldots(ii)$

Divide (i) and (ii)

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.1}{\delta_2}=\dfrac{A_2}{A_1}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.1\times \dfrac{4}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.05\ mm$

What is mass times acceleration?

frozen [14]

Answer:

Force

Explanation:

The mass of an object is the quantity of matter it contains. It is measured in kilograms.

Acceleration is the ratio of the change in the velocity of an object to the change in time. It is measured in m/ $s^{2}$ .

When the mass of an object is multiplied with its acceleration, this gives the average force applied on the object. As force is defined as agent that can change the state of an object.

i.e F = m × a

where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.

The two major classes of force are; contact force and field force.

What two factors are a part of thermohaline circulation

Margarita [4]

Answer:

These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.
