The linear scale is applicable only as it moves in one dimension. From the word "linear" it means it deals with one equation only. Unlike the other options, the dimensions are many because it involves 2 or more variables for its equation.
Answer:
a) 1504.8 J
b) 991.76 J
c) 0J
d) 0J
Explanation:
(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

P: applied force = 171N
x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m
you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250
M: mass of the box = 46.0kg
g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

(c) The Normal force is

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

(d) the same as before:

The sound is perceived as louder if the amplitude increases, and softer if the amplitude decreases. ( for amplitude)
Since sound at all frequencies has the same speed in air, a change in frequency means a change in wavelength. ( for frequency)
<span>The component most affected by the collisions is vertical. The ball's vertical will either decrease or increase due to the collision. If the velocity is high during the collsion the ball's vertical will likely be higher and if the ball's velocity is low the vertical will be as well.</span>
