The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement vector d = (15m)i - (12m)j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which exerts a force vector F = (210N)i - (150N)j on the block. How much work does the force do on the block during displacement?

Answer: W = 4950J

Explanation: <u>Work</u> (W), in physics, is done when a force acts on an object that has a displacement form a place to another:

W = F · d

As the formula shows, Work is a scalar product, i.e, it results in a number, so, Work only has magnitude.

Force and displacement for the ice block are in 2 dimensions, then work will be:

W = (210)i - (150)j · (15)i - (12)j

W = (210*15) + (150*12)

W = 3150 + 1800

W = 4950J

During the displacement, the ice block has a work of 4950J

Una bola de acero rueda y cae por el borde de una mesa desde 4ft por encima del piso. Si golpea el suelo a 5ft de la base de la
SashulF [63]

Answer:

     \large\boxed{\large\boxed{10ft/s}}

Explanation:

The question, translated, is:

  • <em>A steel ball rolls and falls off the edge of a table from 4ft above the floor. If you hit the ground 5ft from the base of the table, what was your initial horizontal velocity?</em>

<em />

<h2>Solution</h2>

<em />

This is a projectile motion, for which, the equations that you will need are:

    V_x_0= V_x=x\cdot t

     y=y_0+Vy_o\cdot t-g\cdot t^2/2

<u />

<u>1. Calculate the time that it takes the ball to fall 4ft</u>

    0=4ft-g\cdot t^2/2\\\\t^2=2\times 4ft/( 32.174ft/s^2)=0.24865s^2\\\\t=0.4986s

<u />

<u>2. Calculate the horizontal velocity:</u>

     V_x_0= V_x=x\cdot t\\\\V_x_0=5ft/0.4986s=10.027ft/s\approx 10ft/s

Calculate the average speed in metres per second from Glasgow to Edinburgh
mariarad [96]
This is the same question as the one previously but with more details, so I will just use my previous answer.

1800 to 1820 is 20 minutes.1830 to 1838 is 8 minutes.1840 to 1905 is 25 minutes.
The total time travelled is 20+8+25 = 53 minutes = 3180 seconds.
The distance between Glasgow and Edinburgh is 28 + 12 + 34 = 74 km = 74000 m.

So, the average speed is 74000m/3180s = 23.27 m/s (4 s.f.)

A disk between vertebrae in the spine is subjected to a shearing force of 600 N. Find its shear deformation, taking it to have t
Art [367]

Answer:

3.34×10^-6m

Explanation:

The shear modulus can also be regarded as the rigidity. It is the ratio of shear stress and shear strain

can be expressed as

shear stress/(shear strain)

= (F/A)/(Lo/ . Δx)

Stress=Force/Area

The sheear stress can be expressed below as

F Lo /(A *Δx)

Where A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

F=shearing force force= 600N

Δx= distance

S= shear modulus= 1 x 109 N/m2

Lo= Lenght of the cylinder= 0.700 cm=7×10^-2m

If we make Δx subject of the formula we have

Δx= FLo/(SA)

If we substitute the Area A we have

Δx= FLo/[S(πd^2/4]

Δx=4FLo/(πd^2 *S)

If we input the values we have

(4×600×0.7×10^-2)/10^9 × 3.14 ×(4×10^-2)^2

= 3.35×10^-6m

Therefore, its shear deformation is 3.35×10^-6m

A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

= [3.142×(4×10^-2)^2]/4
