Answer:
Work done on an object is equal to
FDcos(angle).
So, naturally, if you lift a book from the floor on top of the table you do work on it since you are applying a force through a distance.
However, I often see the example of carrying a book through a horizontal distance is not work. The reasoning given is this: The force you apply is in the vertical distance, countering gravity and thus not in the direction of motion.
But surely you must be applying a force (and thus work) in the horizontal direction as the book would stop due to air friction if not for your fingers?
Is applying a force through a distance only work if causes an acceleration? That wouldn't make sense in my mind. If you are dragging a sled through snow, you are still doing work on it, since the force is in the direction of motion. This goes even if velocity is constant due to friction.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy=1/2mv^2
=1/2(142*10^-3)(42.9)^2=130.6=131J
Answer:
4.7 GHz
Explanation:
Applying,
v = λf................. Equation 1
Where v = velocity of the radio wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency
make f the subject of the equation
f = v/λ.............. Equation 2
Note: A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, as such it moves with a velocity of 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s
From the question,
Given: λ = 0.0644 meters
Constant: v = <em>3.00 x 10⁸ m/s</em>
Substitute these values into equation 2
f = (3.00 x 10⁸)/0.0644
f = 4.66×10⁹ Hz
f = 4.7 GHz
Answer:
An element is a pure substance and is made of only one type of atom.
