Answer:

5) Displacement = +3.125 m

Displacement is in the same direction as the force vector.

6) Force = -53.89 N

Force is in an opposite direction relative to the displacement.

Explanation:

5) We are given;

Force; F = 160 N.

Workdone; W = +500 J

Now, formula for workdone is;

W = Force × displacement

Thus, displacement = Work/force

Displacement = 500/160

Displacement = +3.125 m

Thus, displacement is in the same direction as the force vector.

6) We are given;

Displacement; d = 18 m.

Workdone; W = -970 J

Like in the first answer above,

Workdone = Force × Displacement

Thus;

Force = Workdone/Displacement

Force = -970/18

Force = -53.89 N

Since force is negative and displacement is positive, it means force is in an opposite direction relative to the displacement.

You are in Paris, 60 m up in the Eiffel Tower. If you throw a euro downward at a velocity of 2.0 m/s, how long would it take the

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

t = 3.29 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the Eiffel tower is 60 m

Initial speed of a euro, u = 2 m/s

It will move under the action of gravity in the downward direction. Firstly, we can find the final velocity as follows :

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\v=\sqrt{u^2+2ad} \\\\v=\sqrt{(2)^2+2\times 9.81\times 60} \\\\v=34.36\ m/s$

Let t is the time taken by the euro to hit the ground. It can be calculated as :

$v=u+at\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{34.36-2}{9.81}\\\\t=3.29\ s$

Hence, it will take 3.29 seconds to hit the ground.

By what factor will the acceleration of an object change its mass stays constant but the force acting on it triples

Viktor [21]

Answer:

lacceleration is given by

a=F/m

With force acting on the object remained constant ,the acceleration is inversly proportional to mass of the object i.e with increase in mass =>acceleration decreases and with decrease in mass => acceleration increases.

acceleration decreases

acceleration increase

A simple experiment to measure the speed of sound doesn't involve a stopwatch. You can fill up along tube with water and put a t

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this problem you have to know the depth of the column, we say R, this information is important because allows you to compute some harmonic of the tube. With this information you can compute the depth of the colum of air, by taking tino account that the new depth is R-L.

To find the fundamental mode you use:

$f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}$

n: mode of the sound

vs: sound speed

L: length of the column of air in the tube.

A) The fundamental mode id obtained for n=1:

$f_1=\frac{v_s}{4L}$

B) For the 3rd harmonic you have:

$f_3=\frac{3v_s}{4L}$

C) For the 2nd harmonic:

$f_2=\frac{2v_s}{4L}$

What is the function (job) of the genes in protein synthesis (how proteins are made in the cell)?

Alborosie

Answer:Most genes contain the information needed to make functional molecules called proteins. (A few genes produce regulatory molecules that help the cell assemble proteins.) The journey from gene to protein is complex and tightly controlled within each cell. It consists of two major steps: transcription and translation.
