A sailboat moves north for a distance of 10.00 km when blown by a wind from the exact south with a force of 5.00 x 10^4 N. How much work was done by the wind?

5 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

Recall that

Work Done = Force x Distance Traveled in the direction of the force

We are given :

Force = 5.00 x 10⁴ = 50,000 N

Distance Travelled in the direction of the force = 10.00 km = 10,000 m

Hence,

Work Done = 50,000 N x 10,000 m

= 500,000,000 J

= 5 x 10⁸ J

- measure reactants precisely. ( first choice)

- stir to the reaction take place. ( second choice)

- wait patiently until the reaction completes. ( fourth choice)

- make sure to recover as much copper as possible. ( last choice)

explanation:

as the height from which the ruler was dropped increased, the speed of the ruler at ryan's hand increased.
