A woman does 236 J of work

Physics
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

work-done in dragging the trash= 236J

applied force= 18.9N

distance moved= 24.4m

Required

The angle of the applied force

Step two:

We know that work done is

WD= F * distance

<em>The work is the product of the horizontal component of the force and the distance. </em>

Horizontal force = 236 ÷ 24.4

= 9.67 N

Cos θ = Horizontal force ÷ Actual force

Cos θ = (236 ÷ 24.4) ÷ 18.9 = 236 ÷ 461.16

The angle is approximately 59˚

A diagram of a closed circuit with a power source on the left labeled 6 V. There are 3 resistors in parallel, separate paths, co
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Current: 1.0 Amperes

The minimum current is flowing through path D

Explanation:

We first find the equivalent resistance to the three resistors in parallel ( which is the total resistance of the circuit) via the equation:

\frac{1}{R_e} =\frac{1}{R_B}+\frac{1}{R_C}+\frac{1}{R_D}\\\frac{1}{R_e} =\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{50}=0.17\\R_e=(1/0.17)\Omega\\R_e=5.88 \Omega

with this info, we can estimate the current going through branch A using Ohm's Law, and the information that the power source is 6 V:

V=I*R\\6V=I*5.88\Omega\\I=\frac{6}{5.88} Amp\\I=1.02A

where the current comes in units of Amperes since all other the quantities are given in the SI system, and we can round this answer to 1.0 Amp following the request to round it to the tenth.

The current will be the lowest through the branch with the largest resistor due to the fact that less current will flow through the path of more resistance.

Than means that the lowest current will be registered through branch D where the 50 \Omega resistor is.

Determine the volume of a cube whose width is 32.1 cm. Round your answer to the correct number significant figures.
Romashka [77]

The volume of a cube is given by:

V=L^3

where L is the measure of each side (which corresponds to its width, since all sides of a cube are equal).

Plugging the data of the problem, L=32.1 cm, inside the equation, we find the volume:

V=L^3 =(32.1 cm)^3 =33076.2 cm^3

Ship A is 32 miles north of ship B and is sailing due south at 16 mph. Ship B is sailing due east at 12 mph. At what rate is the
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

\dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h

Explanation:

distance between ship A and B = 32 mile

Ship A velocity in south, dx/dt = -16 mph

Ship B is sailing toward east with speed, dy/st = 12 mph

time = 1 hour

rate of change of distance between them = ?

x be the distance travel after t time

X = 32 + x

Let distance between them be z

now, using Pythagoras theorem to calculate distance between ships after 1 hours

z² = x² + y²

z² = (32 + x)² + 12²

z² = (32 - 16)² + 12²

z = √400

z = 20 miles

now, calculation of rate of change of distnace

z² = (32 + x)² + y²

differentiating both side w.r.t. time

2 z \dfrac{dz}{dt} = 2(32+x)\dfrac{dx}{dt} + 2 y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

z \dfrac{dz}{dt} =(32-16)\dfrac{dx}{dt} +y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

20\times \dfrac{dz}{dt} =16\times (-16) +12\times 12

\dfrac{dz}{dt} =\dfrac{-112}{20}

\dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h

hence, the rate is the distance between them changing at the end of 1 hour is equal to \dfrac{dz}{dt} =-5.6\ mile/h

Which set of terms best defines what affects kinetic energy and potential energy, respectively?
aleksley [76]
<span>The correct answer is "velocity, height". Kinetic energy is affected by: mass and velocity, while potential energy by: mass, gravity and height (or "position"). Considering these combinations, only the third choice is the correct one: a) position, gravity describe only potential energy, B) gravity, position describe only potential energy, C) velocity, height describe respectively kinetic and potential energy, D) height, velocity would respectively describe potential energy first and then kinetic energy, it is in the wrong order, thus the correct answer is C.</span>

The two ends of a coiled wire are connected to the electrodes of a lightbulb.
barxatty [35]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The bar magnet moves downward with respect to the wire loop, so that the number of magnetic field lines going through the loop decreases with time. This causes an emf to be induced in the loop, creating an electric current.

in other words, the magnets motion creates a current in the loop
