Answer: work done = 64,000J or 64KJ.

Explanation:

Work is said to be done if a force applied makes the object to move through a distance in the direction of the applied force. Work is the product of force and perpendicular distance in the direction of the applied force. It is represented by W, measured in Joules(J) and a scalar quantity.

Thus, work done(J)= force(N) × distance(m)

From the the question,

applied force= 1600N

distance=40m

Therefore, work= 1600 × 40

W= 64,000J

But, 1 kilojoules = 1000J

Therefore, 64,000J = 64,000 ÷ 1000

= 64KJ

Work done is 64KJ

What is the minimum number of vectors lying in the same plane required to givs zero resulant

alexgriva [62]

Well the trivial answer is zero, since there is indeed a "zero vector". Assuming you aren't allowed to use the zero vector you would need at least two. They would be antiparallel and of equal magnitude. (That is be pointing in opposite directions and have the same length)

2. A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 X 103

skad [1K]

Correct Question:-

A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 × 10³

newtons to raise a car 0.25 meter. How much

work is done by the jack?

$\\ \\$

Given :-

$\star \sf \small force = 4.5 \times {10}^{3} \: newton$

$\star \sf \small distance = 0.25 \: meter$

$\\ \\$

To find:-

$\sf \star \: work = \: ?$

$\\ \\$

Solution:-

we know :-

$\bf \dag \boxed{ \rm work = force \times distance}$

$\\ \\$

So:-

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = force \times distance$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times 0.5 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{0 \cancel.5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \cancel \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{4\cancel.5}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{3 - 1} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{1} \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times \cancel{10}}{ \cancel2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times 5}{ 1} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work =225 \times 10$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \bf work =\red{2250\: joule}$

A tourist bus is carrying passengers from the bottom of a hill to the top. the people, the bus, and the luggage can be analyzed

WINSTONCH [101]

The friction between the tires and the road causes loss of energy in the form of heat-energy.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The term kinetic energy refers to the energy of an object that is in motion. The pasengers that are sitting at a point possess potential energy. If the bus stops suddenly, the potential energy of the passengers is converted to kinetic energy as they move forward.

Since friction causes loss of energy, the friction between the tires and the road causes looss of energy in the form of heat-energy.

4. Which of the following is the DNA sequence that a restriction enzyme binds to?

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

DNA ligase

Explanation:

DNA Ligase is the enzyme that binds fragments of DNA together by forming two phosphodiester bonds between the 3' hydroxyl end of one nucleotide with the 5' phosphate end of the other. This reaction requires the hydrolysis of ATP.
