Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Work done is simply defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, we can express the Workdone as:

Workdone = force × distance

Wd = F × s

With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Wd = F × s

Wd = 10 × 4

Wd = 40 J

Thus, 40 J of work was done.

Quinn accelerates her skateboard along a straight path from 0 m/s to 4.0 m/s

umka2103 [35]

initial velocity=u=0m/s
Final velocity=v=4m/s
Time=t=2.5s

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{4-0}{2.5}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{4}{2.5}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=1.6m/s^2$

6. Two light bulbs are designed for use at 120 V and are rated at 75 W and 150 W. Which light bulb has the greater filament resi

Nonamiya [84]

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

P is power
R is resistance

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}$

Hence

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto V$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto \dfrac{1}{P}$

Therefore if power is low then resistance will be high.

The first bulb has less power hence it has greater filament resistance.

The speed of light in a vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. Which gives this number in three significant digits? 299,000,000. m/s 2.99 x

dexar [7]

Answer: $2.99(10)^{-8} m/s$

Explanation:

When a number is written in scientific notation (representing the number using powers of base ten) it is expressed so that it contains a digit in the place of the units and all other digits after the decimal point, multiplied by the respective exponent.

Then, the significant figures (or significant digits) will be the digits that are before the power of ten.

Now, in the case of the number 299,792,458 if we want to write it with three significant digits, we have to write it in scientific notation as:

$2.99(10)^{-8}$

A 0.300 kg block is pressed against a spring with a spring constant of 8050 N/m until the spring is compressed by 6.00 cm. When

natita [175]

Answer:

a) $\mu_{k} = 0.704$ , b) $R = 0.312\,m$

Explanation:

a) The minimum coeffcient of friction is computed by the following expression derived from the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot x^{2} = \mu_{k}\cdot m\cdot g \cdot \Delta s$

$\mu_{k} = \frac{k\cdot x^{2}}{2\cdot m\cdot g \cdot \Delta s}$

$\mu_{k} = \frac{\left(8050\,\frac{N}{m} \right)\cdot (0.06\,m)^{2}}{2\cdot (0.3\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (7\,m)}$

$\mu_{k} = 0.704$

b) The speed of the block is determined by using the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot x^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}$

$v = x\cdot \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

$v = (0.06\,m)\cdot \sqrt{\frac{8050\,\frac{N}{m} }{0.3\,kg} }$

$v \approx 9.829\,\frac{m}{s}$

The radius of the circular loop is:

$\Sigma F_{r} = -90\,N -(0.3\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} ) = -(0.3\,kg)\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}$

$\frac{\left(9.829\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2}}{R} = 309.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$R = 0.312\,m$
