Answer:

She does a work of 689.44 J in the snow.

Explanation:

A force is said to do work when it alters the state of motion of a body. The work of the force on that body will be equivalent to the energy needed to move it.

In other words, Work is a form of energy transmission between bodies. In order to carry out work, a force must be exerted on a body and it must move.

The work is equal to the product of the force times the distance and the cosine of the angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction that the moving point or object travels:

W= F*d* cos Ф

Work W is measured in joules (J), force is measured in newtons (N), and displacement in meters (m).

In this case:

  • F= 180 N
  • d=5 m
  • Ф= 40 degrees

Replacing:

W= 180 N*5 m* cos 40

Solving:

W= 689.44 J

<u><em>She does a work of 689.44 J in the snow.</em></u>

Why is a frame of reference important in Physics?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

A “frame of reference” is a standard relative to which motion and rest may be measured; any set of points or objects that are at rest relative to one another enables us, in principle, to describe the relative motions of bodies.

Explanation:

When you see a ball roll down a street, you can tell the ball is moving because the frame of reference is the streets, whatever may be on the side of the roads, or the Earth. All of these are frames of reference. All measurements of motion will be compared to a frame of reference.

The speed of a certain proton is 350 km/s. If the uncertainty in its momentum is 0.100%, what is the necessary uncertainty in it
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

\Delta x = 1.807 \times 10^{-10}m

Explanation:

mass of proton, m = 1.67 x 10^-27 kg

speed of proton, v = 350 km/s = 350,000 m/s

Momentum of proton, p = mass x speed

p =  1.67 x 10^-27 x 350000 = 5.845 x 10^-22 kg m /s

uncertainty in momentum, Δp = 0.1 % of p

Δp = \frac{0.1\times 5.845 \times 10^{-22}}{100}=5.845 \times 10^{-25}

According to the principle

\Delta x\times \Delta p \geq  \frac{h}{2\pi }

where, Δx be the uncertainty in position

\Delta x\times 5.845 \times 10^{-25}=  \frac{6.634 \times 10^{-34}}{2\times 3.14}

\Delta x = 1.807 \times 10^{-10}m
