Answer:

1863 J

Explanation:

F = Force moving the object

f = Frictional force = 230 N

The forces in the horizontal direction have the force balance

F-f=0\\\Rightarrow F=f\\\Rightarrow F=230\ \text{N}

So, the force by which the object is being pushed is 230\ \text{N}

s = The displacement of the object = 8.1 m

Work done is given by

W=Fs\\\Rightarrow W=230\times 8.1\\\Rightarrow W=1863\ \text{J}

The work done by the mover is 1863 J.

The ratio of the output work to input force is the _ of the machine ?
Colt1911 [192]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Mechanical advantage

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Mechanical advantage is the ratio of force output from a machine divided by the force input into the machine.
  • Mechanical advantage measures the machine's force-magnifying effect. It is an advantage gained by using simple machines to accomplish work with less effort.
  • The formula is; M.A = output force/ Input force

When the temperature of the air is 50°C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately?
noname [10]

The answer is:

C. 361 m/s

The explanation:

To calculate  the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:

v = 331 + 0.6T

when V is the velocity

and T is the temperature = 50°C

by substitution:

v = 331 + 0.6(50)

v = 361 m/s

So, The correct answer is C.

because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the  sound in the air is change with temperature.

Is electrical conductivity?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

can't tell if this is question, it is not written correctly

Explanation:

Electrical conductivity is the measure of a material's ability to allow the transport of an electric charge. Its SI is the siemens per meter, (A2s3m−3kg−1) (named after Werner von Siemens) or, more simply, Sm−1. It is the ratio of the current density to the electric field strength.

Explain what causes something to be a magnet
Luden [163]
Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges.
