1. What is work done in holding a 15kg suitcase while waiting for a bus for 15 minutes?

1 answer:

6 0

Work is (force applied) x (distance through which the force moves).

Since the suitcase doesn't move up or down during the 15 minutes,
no work is done ... zero, zip, nada ... according to the real Physics
definition of 'work'.

All electromagnetic waves travel in vacuum at the speed of c=3×10^8 m/s. Find the wavelength of microwaves of frequency 10^10 Hz

erica [24]

Recall the wave equation, $c=f\lambda$ where c is the speed of the wave (m/s), f is the frequency of the wave (Hz) and λ is the wavelength of the wave (m).

$c=f\lambda \Rightarrow \lambda = \frac{c}{f}$ so $\lambda = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{10^{10}} = 0.03 \text{m}$

You and a friend each carry identical boxes from the first floor of a building to a room located on the second floor, farther do

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Work done in both the cases will be same

Explanation:

As we know that the work done against gravity is given as

$W = F_g .d$

here we know that gravitational force is a conservative force and the work done against gravitational force is independent of the path

So here the work done by person to move the object between two different heights will be independent of the path they choose

So for the first person and second person will be same in both the cases because the height through which the boxes are transferred will be same in both the cases

The stars in the sky are organized into groups of stars called constellations which appear near each other in the sky but are no

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has accepted 88 constellations in the sky.

Explanation:

Constellations has been used since the beginnings of civilizations and each one of them named them as they considered appropiate. It means Greeks' constellations were different than the ones described by Chinese, so it was necessary to gather all these constellations and make a great record with all of them, but there was a problem: Some constellations from different civilizations overlaped because they shared the same stars. There was necessary to put some order on this and that is when in 1922 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defned a set of 88 moderm constellations that would become the international standard to look at the night sky. Each one of them is unique and does not share stars with the other constellations.
