Help me with this homework

Physics
1 answer:
Aleks [24]3 years ago

Answer:

4. The reading decreases because part of your weight is applied to the table and the table exerts a matching force on you that acts in the direction opposite to your weight.

Explanation:

When you push on anything, Newtons Third Law comes into effect: "when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction." So pretty much, the table you are putting some of your weight on is taking some of the downward force and in return the scale isn't going to push up with as much force.

I'm not the best at explaining, but im in physics right now and thats somewhat how my teacher explained it.

A father pushes his child on a swing. He pushes with a force of 20 N or a distance of 1 m, with the force always maintained para
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

20 Joules

Explanation:

Work is done whenever a force moves a body through a certain distance in the direction of the force. So, work done is the product of force and distance moved.

Therefore, we have;

Work done = Force x distance

i.e   Wd = Fs

Given that: F = 20 N and s = 1 m, then;

Wd = 20 N x 1 m

     = 20 Nm

The work done by the father is 20 Joules(Nm).

Two resistors, R1 and R2, are
dlinn [17]

The reciprocal of the total resistance is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of the component resistances:

1/(120.7 Ω) = 1/<em>R₁</em> + 1/(221.0 Ω)

1/<em>R₁</em> = 1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)

<em>R₁</em> = 1 / (1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)) ≈ 265.9 Ω
