Answer:

<h2>3 m/s^2</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Mass m= 4kg

Force F= 12N

Required

Acceleration the relation between force, acceleration, and mass is Newton's first equation of motion, which says a body will continue to be at rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force

F=ma

a=F/m

a=12/4

a=3 m/s^2

While Robert was helping his father in the garden, he pushed a shovel into the ground to dig a hole in the dirt. He picked up a
makvit [3.9K]

Work done is given by the change in kinetic energy of an object

  • The kinetic energy of the shovel, the shrub, and in Robert's movement were changed, therefore, work is done in the given processes,

Reason:

Work is done when the total energy of object is affected by the application of force on the object over a distance

Therefore;

  • In option <em>A</em>, pushing the shovel into ground (to dig out the dirt) the requires the application of a force (push) over a distance, (into and out of the ground) therefore work is done
  • In option <em>B</em>, picking the shrub up gives it gravitational potential energy, therefore, work is done
  • In option <em>C</em>, carrying the shrub to the hole does visible work
  • In option <em>D</em>, holding the shrub while lowering it into the hole does work by preventing the shrub from falling randomly

Therefore, <u>work is done in the given processes</u>

A 18000 Hz wave has wavelength of 0.03 meters. How fast is this wave<br> traveling?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

540m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency of the wave = 18000Hz

Wavelength of the wave = 0.03m

Unknown:

How fast is the wave traveling = ?

Solution:

How fast the wave is traveling is a measure of the speed of the wave;

     Speed of wave  = frequency x wavelength

Now insert the given parameters and solve;

   Speed of wave  = 18000 x   0.03  = 540m/s

A solar panel is used to recharge a battery. The solar panel produces 0.80 W of electrical power. The panel is 20% efficient. Wh
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Input power, Ip = 4 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power output = 0.8 Watts

Efficiency = 20%

To find the power input of the sunlight onto the solar panel;

Mathematically, the efficiency of a machine is given by the formula;

Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; power}{In-put \; power} * 100

Substituting into the formula, we have;

20 = \frac {0.8}{Ip} * 100

20 = \frac {80}{Ip}

Cross-multiplying, we have;

20Ip = 80

Ip = \frac {80}{20}

Input power, Ip = 4 Watts
