Answer :-

The person who is exerting 55N will move the box 20N to the right (option B).

Reason :-

The total force by the two people in the left side is .. 17 N + 16N = 33N.
So, the net force acting on the box is, 55N - 33N = 20N.
The box will move towards the right because greater force is acting there.

Microplastics contain harmful chemicals that can accumulate in the food chain. The other chemicals released into the water when the plastic breaks down also has a negative impact on the sealife around. And with humans consuming contaminated fish and seafood, plastic pollution is certainly a human health issue too. microplastics were providing a medium to facilitate the transport of other toxic compounds such as heavy metals and organic pollutants.

How has God designed sound waves so that a person is able to hear all the different instruments in a musical piece at the same t

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: when the wave encounters something, it can bounce (reflection) or be bent (refraction). In fact, you can "trap" waves by making them bounce back and forth between two or more surfaces. Musical instruments take advantage of this; they produce pitches by trapping sound waves.

Explanation: Any bunch of sound waves will produce some sort of noise. But to be a tone - a sound with a particular pitch - a group of sound waves has to be very regular, all exactly the same distance apart. That's why we can talk about the frequency and wavelength of tones.

A 10 kg rock that has been dropped from a 60 meter high cliff experiences an average force of air resistance of 30 N. Calculate

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4086 J

Explanation:

The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff

Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance

$mgh-Fh= 0.5mv^{2}= KE$

Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be

KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J
