Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻² ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻² ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.

An inclined plane is made out of a short plank of wood. It is used to move a 300N box up onto a tabletop 1m above the floor. Wha

Ronch [10]

Answer:

<em>The purpose of an inclinded plane is to make easier to move objects to a certain height.</em>

The technology behind this is about the Work you need to use to move the object upwards. Basically, when we use an inclined plane, we are splitting the net force, making easier to move. All this means, the force needed to move the objecto up will be lower, due to the inclined plane.

So, if the force needed is lower, then the work is also lower, because the work done is defined as the product between the force applied and the distance traveled.

<em>In addition, if we have a longer inclined plane, that means the force needed is even lower,</em> beacuse the distance is increased, but the Work is the same, because it only depends on the initial and final point.

Therefore, in this case, the work would remain the same and the mechanical advantage would increase. As we said before, the work needed will be the same despite the force decreases, because the distance increases, remaining the work as a constant. And the mechanical advantage increases, because it's easier to move if the inclined plane is longer.

Our two intrepid relacar drivers are named Pam and Ned. We use these names to make it easy to remember: measurements made by Pam

zhannawk [14.2K]

The velocity of Ned as measured by Pam is the interpretation of v.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to question, we know that this is an issue depending on the logical and translation of the factors. From the measured information taken what is gathered by the two people is communicated and we have given as:

The Ned reference framework : (x, t)

The Pam reference framework : $\left(x^{\prime}, t^{\prime}\right)$

From the reference framework, we realize that ν is the speed of Pam (the other reference framework) as estimation by Ned.

At that point, $v^{\prime}$ is the speed of Ned (from the other arrangement of the reference) as estimation by Pam.

What is the threshold frequency for sodium metal if a photon with frequency 6.66 × 1014 s−1 ejects a photon with 7.74 × 10−20 J

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

5.5 × 10^14 Hz or s^-1

no orange light has less frequency so no photoelectric effect

Explanation:

hf = hf0 + K.E

HERE h is Planck 's constant having value 6.63 × 10 ^-34 J s

f is frequency of incident photon and f0 is threshold frequency

hf0 = hf- k.E

6.63 × 10 ^-34 × f0 = 6.63 × 10 ^-34× 6.66 × 10^14 - 7.74× 10^-20

6.63 × 10 ^-34 × f0 = 3.64158×10^-19

f0 = 3.64158×10^-19/ 6.63 × 10 ^-34

f0 = 5.4925 × 10^14

f0 =5.5 × 10^14 Hz or s^-1

frequency of orange light is 4.82 × 10^14 Hz which is less than threshold frequency hence photo electric effect will not be observed for orange light

Un tren emplea cierto tiempo en recorrer 240 km. Si la velocidad hubiera sido 20 km por hora mas que la que llevaba hubiera tard

podryga [215]

Answer:

A train takes some time to travel 240 km. If the speed had been 20 km per hour more than the one it was carrying, it would have taken 2 hours less to travel this distance. In what time did he cover the 240 km

Explanation:

Given that,

A train travelled a distance of 240km

Let the initial speed be

S_1 = x km/hr

Let assume the time spent on the first journey is

t_1 = a

Now if he increase the speed to

S_2 = (x + 20) km/hr

Then, he would have take 2hrs less time

Then, time t_2 = a - 2

The common data fore the two journey is the distance

Speed = distance / time

For the first stage

S_1 = d / t_1

d = S_1 × a

d = x × a

240 = x•a

x = 240 / a Equation 1

For stage two

d = S_2 × t_2

d = (x+20) × (a - 2)

240 = (x+20) × (a - 2). Equation 2

Substitute equation 1 into 2

240 = (240/a + 20) × (a -2)

240 = 240 - 480/a + 20a - 40

240 - 240 + 40 = - 480/a + 20a

240 - 240 + 40 = (-480 + 20a²) / a

40 = (-480 + 20a²) / a

40a = -480 + 20a²

20a² - 40a -480 = 0

Divided through by 20

a² - 2a - 24 = 0

a² + 4a - 6a - 24 = 0

a(a+4) -6(a+4) = 0

(a-6)(a+4) = 0

(a-6) = 0 or (a+4) = 0

So, a = 6 or a = -4

The time cannot be negative, then, the time is a = 6hours

So, t_1 = a = 6hours,

So, the time used in the first journey is 6hours

So, in the second journey the time use is 2hours less than the first journey

Then, t_2 = 6 - 2 = 4 hours

t_1 = 6 hours

t_2 = 4 hours

Un tren recorrió una distancia de 240 km.

Deje que la velocidad inicial sea

S_1 = x km / h

Supongamos que el tiempo dedicado al primer viaje es

t_1 = a

Ahora si aumenta la velocidad a

S_2 = (x + 20) km / h

Entonces, habría tomado 2 horas menos de tiempo

Entonces, el tiempo t_2 = a - 2

Los datos comunes para los dos viajes son la distancia.

Velocidad = distancia / tiempo

Para la primera etapa

S_1 = d / t_1

d = S_1 × a

d = x × a

240 = x • a

x = 240 / a Ecuación 1

Para la etapa dos

d = S_2 × t_2

d = (x + 20) × (a - 2)

240 = (x + 20) × (a - 2). Ecuación 2

Sustituye la ecuación 1 en 2

240 = (240 / a + 20) × (a -2)

240 = 240 - 480 / a + 20a - 40

240 - 240 + 40 = - 480 / a + 20a

240 - 240 + 40 = (-480 + 20a²) / a

40 = (-480 + 20a²) / a

40a = -480 + 20a²

20a² - 40a -480 = 0

Dividido entre 20

a² - 2a - 24 = 0

a² + 4a - 6a - 24 = 0

a (a + 4) -6 (a + 4) = 0

(a-6) (a + 4) = 0

(a-6) = 0 o (a + 4) = 0

Entonces, a = 6 o a = -4

El tiempo no puede ser negativo, entonces, el tiempo es a = 6 horas

Entonces, t_1 = a = 6 horas,

Entonces, el tiempo utilizado en el primer viaje es de 6 horas

Entonces, en el segundo viaje, el uso del tiempo es 2 horas menos que el primer viaje

Entonces, t_2 = 6 - 2 = 4 horas

t_1 = 6 horas

t_2 = 4 horas
