Work = Force x displacement
Force= 20N
Displacement= 0.75m

W= 20(0.75)
W= 15 Nm

A woman makes 50% more than her husband. Together they make $2500 each month? How much does the woman earn each month?a) $950b)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:b

Explanation:

Given

Woman earn 50% more than her husband

Total sum of their money is $=\$ 2500$

Suppose man earns $\$ P$

so women earns $P+0.5 P=P(1+0.5)=1.5 P$

Sum of their money is

$P+1.5 P=2500$

$P=\$ 1000$

Women earns $=1.5\times 1000=\$ 1500$

At a distance of 14.0 m from a point source, the intensity level is measured to be 80 dB. At what distance from the source will

Ivan

Answer:

$d_2=19.8m$

Explanation:

The problem can be solved easily, because the relationship between intensities $I_1$ and $I_2$ at distances $d_1$ and $d_2$ respectively can be written as:

$\frac{I_2}{I_1} =\frac{d_1^2}{d_2^2}$

Where:

$I_1=Intensity\hspace{3}1\\I_2=Intensity\hspace{3}2\\d_1=Distance\hspace{3}1\\d_2=Distance\hspace{3}2$

In this case:

$I_1=80dB\\I_2=40dB\\d_1=14m\\d_2=?$

Solving for $d_2$

$d_2=\sqrt{\frac{d_1^2 *I_1}{I_2} } =\sqrt{\frac{14^2*80}{40} } =\sqrt{392} =19.79898987m\approx19.8m$

describe how acceleration and velocity are related and specify if these are scalar and vector quantities

vitfil [10]

Velocity is the rate of change in distance over change in time, this can be written as:

v = Δd / Δt

While acceleration is the rate of change in velocity over change in time, this is written as:

a = Δv / Δt

<span>Both quantities are vector quantities because negative values means that the acceleration or velocity is acting on the opposite direction.</span>

Find the x-component of this<br> vector:<br> 15.3 m<br> 65.0°<br> Please help!

Harrizon [31]

Given :

Magnitude of vector, v = 15.3 m

Angle of vector from horizon, $\theta = 65^o$ .

To Find :

The x - component of the given vector.

Solution :

We know, a vector is given by :

$\vec{v} = vsin\ \theta \hat{i} + v cos \ \theta \hat{j}\\$

Now, the x - component is :

$\vec{v_x} = vcos\ \theta \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 15.3 \times cos\ 65^o \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 15.3 \times 0.42\ \hat{j}\\\\\vec{v_x} = 6.426\ \hat{j}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
