masha68 [24]

Answer:

Both A and B

Explanation:

The interaction of magnetic fields and armature results into a rotational force of the armature hence turning motion. It's important to note that you will always need two magnetic fields in order to experience the force since one magnetic field is at the rotating armature and another at the casing. Considering the arguments of these two technicians, both of them are correct in their arguments.

On the way to school, the bus speeds up from 20 m/s to 36 m/s in 4 seconds. What distance
Tresset [83]
Answer B. 112 m



Step-by-Step Explanation

initial velocity u = 20 m /s
final velocity v = 36 m /s
time taken t = 4 s
acceleration = (v - U) / t
= (36 - 20) / 4
a=4m/s2
from the formula
7-u2=2as , sis distance covered
putting the values
362-202=2×4×s
1296 - 400 = 8 x S
S= 112 m

Thing 1 and Thing 2 push with a force of 2000 N to move a rather small 500 kg elephant 30 m across the kitchen floor. How much w
Amanda [17]

Answer:

60000 J

Explanation:

Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is

W=Fd

where

F = 2000 N is the force applied

d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(2000 N)(30 m)=60,000 J
