A parent pushes a stroller with a 11.2 N force for 15.9 m. How much work did the parent do?

The definition of work is that it is the Force applied over a distance, times the distance. The only trick is that you have to account only for forces in the direction of movement; any forces that are normal to the movement are not taken into account. Intuitively, work is generated only by forces that contribute  to the movement (or go against it; same or opposite direction).

Let us see now: W=F*d =11.2N* 15.9m=178.1 N*m=178.1 J where J stands for Joules. This is the work that the parent did, namely how much energy he had to put in to move the stroller.

Follow these steps to solve this problem: Two identical loudspeakers, speaker 1 and speaker 2, are 2.0 m apart and are emitting
horsena [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wave length of sound from each of the  speakers = 340 / 1700 = .2 m = 20 cm

Distance between first speaker and the given point = 4 m.

Distance between second speaker and the given sound

= √ 4² + 2² = √16 +4 = √20 = 4.472 m

Path difference = 4.472 - 4 = .4722 m.

Path difference / wave length = 0.4772 / 0.2 = 2.386

This is a fractional integer which is neither an odd nor an  even multiple of half wavelength. Hence this point of neither a perfect constructive nor a perfect destructive interference.

Kristina works out seven days a week. Lately, she has been tired, and her body aches. If she is overtraining, which training pri
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As Kristina is over training, therefore, there is pain in her muscles because human body also requires rest in order to work or function properly.

That is why, gym trainers suggest to give one day off in a week for your workout sessions so that body muscles should recover.

Thus, we can conclude that if Kristina is over training, then recovery training principle should Kristina consider before continuing her program.

Two speakers, A and B, produce identical sound waves. A listener is 3.2 m away from speaker A. The listener finds the lowest fre
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

  0.83 m or 5.57 m

Explanation:

Destructive interference will occur when the distances from the speakers differ by 1/2 wavelength.

The length of 1 cycle of 72.4 Hz is ...

  λ = v/f = (343 m/s)/(72.4 Hz) ≈ 4.738 m

So, the distance of the listener from speaker B is ...

  3.2 m ± (4.738 m)/2 = {0.83 m, 5.57 m} . . . either of these distances

_____

The location could be at additional multiples of 4.738 m, but we think not. The sound intensity drops off with the square of the distance from the speaker, so identical sound waves from the speakers will sound quite different at different distances from the speakers. For best interference, the distances need to be as close to the same as possible. That will be at 3.2 m and 5.57 m.

_____

<em>Comment on the speed of sound</em>

We don't know what speed you are to use for the speed of sound. We have used 343 m/s. Some sources use 340 m/s, which will give a result different by 2 or 3 cm.

If the gas in a container absorbs 275 Joules of heat, has 125 Joules of work done on it, then does 50 Joules of work, what is th
cluponka [151]

Answer:

    The increase in the internal energy = 350 J

Explanation:

Given that

Q= 275  J

W= - 125 J

W' = 50 J

W(net)= -125  + 50 = -75 J

Sign -

1.Heat rejected by system - negative

2.Heat gain by system - Positive

3.Work done by system = Positive

4.Work done on the system-Negative

Lets take change in the  internal energy =ΔU

We know that

Q= ΔU + W(net)

275 = ΔU -75

ΔU= 275 + 75 J

ΔU=350 J

The increase in the internal energy = 350 J
