The student 2 did the MOST work because he pushed the box to a greater height.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Force applied by Student 1 = 500 N</em>
  • <em>Height of table for student 1 = 1.2 m</em>
  • <em>Height of ramp for student 2 = 5 m</em>

The work done by student 1 is calculated as follows;

Work = P.E = mgh

P.E = 1.2mg

The work done by the student 2 is calculated as;

P.E = 5mg

where;

  • <em>m </em><em>is the </em><em>mass </em><em>of the box</em>

Thus, we can conclude that the student 2 did the MOST work.

What do echolocation and ultrasounds have in common?
Natali5045456 [20]

During which phase of the moon do neap tides occur?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

First Quarter and Third Quarter.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the Moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variates with the distance:

F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}} (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.

For example, seeing the image below, point A is closer to the Moon than point b, and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the Moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

When the Sun and the Moon are alight with respect to the Earth, then the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the Moon over the Earth. That makes the high tides even higher (spring tides).

               

However, when the Sun is not in the same line than the Moon (the Moon is at 90° with respect to the Sun), then the low tides are higher and the high tides are lower. That scenario is known as neap tides.

           

Therefore, that happens when the Moon is at First Quarter and Third Quarter.

As an intern with an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel, for rotation about an ax
AysviL [449]

Answer:

I=2.766\ kg.m^2

Explanation:

We have:

diameter of the wheel, d=0.88\ m

weight of the wheel, w_w=280\ N

mass of hanging object to the wheel, m_o=6.32\ kg

speed of the hanging mass after the descend, v_o=4\ m.s^{-1}

height of descend, h=2.5\ m

(a)

moment of inertia of wheel about its central axis:

I=\frac{1}{2} m.r^2

I=\frac{1}{2} \frac{w_w}{g}.r^2

I=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{280}{9.8}\times 0.44^2

I=2.766\ kg.m^2
