Answer:

2100 J

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Force acting on the object, F = 420 N

Distance moved by object, d = 5m

The change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work done by a force acting on the object:

W = F * d

∆KE = F * d

∆KE = 420 * 5

∆KE = 2100 J

Answer:

∆KE = 2100 J

Explanation:

Given:

Force of person pushes against the wagon=  F = 420 N

Distance = d = 5.0 m

When you accelerate an object, you are doing work against inertia. It is proven that work equals the change in kinetic energy of the object.

therefore, W = ΔKE

where,

W is the work done against the resistance of inertia

ΔKE is the change in kinetic energy (Δ is Greek letter capital delta)

Also, W = F x d

∴∆KE = F x d

∆KE = 420 x 5

∆KE = 2100 J

The change in kinetic energy for the wagon is 2100 J

Does a fish appear closer or farther from a person wearing swim goggles with an air pocket in front of their eyes than the fish
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

In this case, the index of seawater replacement is 1.33, the index of refraction of air is 1, which is why the angle of replacement is less than the incident angle, so the fish seems to be closer

In the opposite case, when the fish looked at the face of the man, the angle of greater reason why it seems to be further away

Explanation:

This exercise can be analyzed with the law of refraction that establishes that a ray of light when passing from one medium to another with a different index makes it deviate from its path,

      n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where n₁ and n₂ are the refractive indices of the incident and refracted means and the angles are also for these two means.

In this case, the index of seawater replacement is 1.33, the index of refraction of air is 1, which is why the angle of replacement is less than the incident angle, so the fish seems to be closer

1 sin θ₁ = 1.33 sin θ₂

        θ₂ = sin⁻¹ ( 1/1.33 sin θ₁)

In the opposite case, when the fish looked at the face of the man, the angle of greater reason why it seems to be further away

A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are then slowly pulled apart. What happens to
White raven [17]

Answer:

<h2>The potential difference increases </h2>

Explanation:

from the relation E= \frac{V}{d}

where E= electric field (force per coulomb)

            V= voltage

            d= distance

Hence the voltage is going to be V= E×d.

Therefore this means that increasing the distance increases the voltage.

a partially inflated weather balloon has a volume of 1.56 * 10^3 L and a pressure of 98.9 lPa. What is the volume of the balloon
e-lub [12.9K]
To solve the problem, we enumerate all the given first. Then the required and lastly the solution.

Given:

V1= 1.56x10^3 L = 1560 L                P2 = 44.1 kPa
P1 = 98.9 kPa

Required:  V2

Solution:

Assuming the gas is ideal. Ideal gas follows Boyle's Law which states that at a given temperature the product of pressure and volume of a gas is constant. In equation,

PV = k

Applying to the problem, we have
 
P1*V1 = P2*V2
(98.9 kPa)*(1560 L) = (44.1 kPa)*V2
V2 = 3498.5 L

<em>ANSWER: V2 = 3498.5 L</em>

Two wires are stretched between two fixed supports and have the same length. One wire A there is a second-harmonic standing wave
lina2011 [118]

(a) Greater

The frequency of the nth-harmonic on a string is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency, f_1:

f_n = n f_1

So we have:

- On wire A, the second-harmonic has frequency of f_2 = 660 Hz, so the fundamental frequency is:

f_1 = \frac{f_2}{2}=\frac{660 Hz}{2}=330 Hz

- On wire B, the third-harmonic has frequency of f_3 = 660 Hz, so the fundamental frequency is

f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}=\frac{660 Hz}{3}=220 Hz

So, the fundamental frequency of wire A is greater than the fundamental frequency of wire B.

(b) f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}

For standing waves on a string, the fundamental frequency is given by the formula:

f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}

where

v is the speed at which the waves travel back and forth on the wire

L is the length of the string

(c) Greater speed on wire A

We can solve the formula of the fundamental frequency for v, the speed of the wave:

v=2Lf_1

We know that the two wires have same length L. For wire A, f_1 = 330 Hz, while for wave B, f_B = 220 Hz, so we can write the ratio between the speeds of the waves in the two wires:

\frac{v_A}{v_B}=\frac{2L(330 Hz)}{2L(220 Hz)}=\frac{3}{2}

So, the waves travel faster on wire A.
