Considering the definition of work and power, 157.5 W of power was developed.  

<h3>Power</h3>

Power is defined as how fast work is done. That is, power is the amount of work done per unit of time:

Power=\frac{work}{time}

P is the power developed by the force that performs the work and its unit of measurement in the International System is Watts (W).

The unit of measurement of work in the International System is the Joule (J). The time during which the work is developed has the unit of measurement in the International System of seconds (s).

<h3>Work </h3>

On the other side, work is defined as the force that is applied on a body to move it from one point to another.  

When a net force is applied to the body or a system and this produces displacement, then that force is said to perform mechanical work. This work can be positive if the system gains energy or negative if the system loses energy.

The work is equal to the product of the force by the distance and by the cosine of the angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction that travels the point or the object that moves.

<h3>This case </h3>

In this case, the angle between the force and the displacement is 0 degrees. This is because the force and the displacement are in the same direction and sense, in the horizontal direction. So the cosine of 0 degrees will have a value of 1. Then work is equal to:

Work= force× distance

Being the force 105 N and the distance 15 meters, the work can be calculated as:

Work= 105 N× 15 meters

Solving:

<u><em>Work=  1,575 J</em></u>

Finally, being the time 10 seconds, the power can be calculated as:

Power=\frac{1,575 J}{10 s}

Solving:

Power= 157.5 W

In summary, 157.5 W of power was developed.

Which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply.
lidiya [134]

We have 6 levels and we will verify which of them is true.

<em>A ) Electric charge is conserved </em>

According to the conservation of charge, an electric charge can neither be created nor be destroyed.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

<em>B ) A positive charge and negative charge attract each other</em>

According to the properties of charges, the opposite charges attract each other and similar charges repel each other

Therefore this statement is  TRUE

<em>C) Two positive charges attract each other.</em>

Using the previous law, we can observe that this statement is false, because equal charges repel each other.

Therefore this statement is FALSE.

<em>D ) Two negative charges repel each other.</em>

Using the same principle as the two previous statements, two equal charges repel each other.

Therefore this statement is TRUE

<em>E) Electric charge is quantized.</em>

According to the quantization of charge, charges can take values only in integral multiples of a fundamental unit of charge.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

<em>F) A neutral object contains no charge.</em>

A neutral object contains equal amount of negative and positive charge. Thus, in totality a neutral object contains no charge.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

On a dry day, just after washing your hair to remove natural oils and drying it thoroughly, run a plastic comb through it. Small
Hitman42 [59]
When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.
