A tornado moving cross a street with a force of 600 N pushes a trailer a distance of 25 m.

Physics

Answer:

<em>W = 15,000 Joule</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Work </u>

Mechanical work is the amount of energy transferred by a force. It's a scalar quantity, with SI units of joules.

If both the force and displacement are parallel, then we can use the scalar formula:

W=F.s

Where

F =Magnitude of the force

s = magnitude of the displacement

The tornado moved a trailer with a force of F=600 N for a distance of s=25 m. The work done was:

W = 600 N * 25 m

W = 15,000 Joule

Answer:

1) D, 2) D, 3) B, 4) B, 5) C

Explanation:

You are asked to select the correct answer

1)  The conservation of energy is one of the most important principles of physics that allows solving countless problems in life.

the correct answer is D

2) when a body falls, the gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy and both are transformed into thermal energy

the correct answer is D

3) When the gravitational potential energy is maximum, the kinetic energy is minimum and when the kinetic energy is maximum, the gravitational energy is minimum.

Correct answer B

4) speed is defined by

         v = x / t

so the correct answer is B in the SI system

5) when we repeat a measurement several times, the random or statistical errors decrease, therefore the confidence of the measurement increases.

The correct answer is C

Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units and points in the positive x direction. A second vector, B , has a magnitude of 120 units a
Alex Ar [27]

A) Vector A

The x-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

v_x = v cos \theta

where

v is the magnitude of the vector

\theta is the angle between the x-axis and the direction of the vector

- Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so \theta_A = 0^{\circ}. So its x-component is

A_x = A cos \theta_A = (50) cos 0^{\circ}=50

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is \theta_B = -70^{\circ} (negative since it is below the x-axis), so the x-component is

B_x = B cos \theta_B = (120) cos (-70^{\circ})=41

So, vector A has the greater x component.

B) Vector B

Instead, the y-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

v_y = v sin \theta

Here we have

- Vector B has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so \theta_A = 0^{\circ}. So its y-component is

A_y = A sin \theta_A = (50) sin 0^{\circ}=0

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is \theta_B = -70^{\circ}, so the y-component is

B_y = B sin \theta_B = (120) sin (-70^{\circ})=-112.7

where the negative sign means the direction is along negative y:

So, vector B has the greater y component.

A wire of radius 5 x 10⁻⁴ m is needed to prepare a coil of resistance 40 Ω. The resistivity of the material of the wire is 3.14x
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

100 m

Explanation:

From the question,

R = Lρ/A.................... Equation 1

Where R = resistance of the wire, L = length of the wire, ρ = resistivity of the wire, A = cross sectional area of the wire.

But,

A = πr².................... Equation 2

Where r = radius of the wire.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

R = Lρ/πr²

Make L the subject of the equation

L = Rπr²/ρ...................... Equation 3

Given: R = 40 Ω, r = 5×10⁻⁴ m, ρ = 3.14×10⁻⁷ Ωm

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 3

L = [40×3.14×( 5×10⁻⁴)²]/ (3.14×10⁻⁷)

L = 40×3.14×25×10⁻⁸/(3.14×10⁻⁷)

L = 100 m

Hence the length of the wire is 100 m
