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>

If a ball is given a push so that it has an initial velocity of 5 m/s down a certain inclined plane, then the distance it has ro
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

v= 13 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the derivative of displacement with respect to time

v= ds/dt

Known data

s(t) = 5t + 2t²  : distance that the ball has rolled after t seconds

vi= 5 m/s : initial velocity

t= 2 s

Problem develoment

s(t) = 5t + 2t²

v= ds/dt= 5 + 4t : velocity of the ball in function of the time

We replace t =2 s in the equation of velocity

v= 5 + 4(2)

v= 13 m/s : velocity after 2 seconds

What are some possible materials you could use to make your battery? DON’T FORGET TO include information about why it is importa
Dima020 [189]

Explanation:

Commercially available batteries use a variety of metals and electrolytes. Anodes can be made of zinc, aluminum, lithium, cadmium, iron, metallic lead, lanthanide, or graphite. Cathodes can be made of manganese dioxide, mercuric oxide, nickel oxyhydroxide, lead dioxide or lithium oxide. Potassium hydroxide is the electrolyte used in most battery types, but some batteries use ammonium or zinc chloride, thionyl chloride, sulfuric acid or lithiated metal oxides. The exact combination varies by battery type. For example, common single-use alkaline batteries use a zinc anode, a manganese dioxide cathode, and potassium hydroxide as the electrolyt
