Which statements describe how a machine can help make work easier? Select two options.
-It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
- It can increase the amount of work performed if the output force is in the same direction as the input force.
-It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.
-It can increase the distance through which a force acts by exerting less force than was used on it.
-It can exert a greater force through a greater distance than the force used on the machine.

A50.0-n box is sliding on a rough horizontal floor, and the only horizontal force acting on it is friction. you observe that at one instant the box is sliding to the right at and that it stops in 2.25 s with uniform acceleration. what magnitude force does friction exert on this box

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the velocity is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. how far is earth from the sun? i know how to get to d = (3 x 10^8 m/s)(498 sec). i just don't know how to get from there to the answer being 1.5 x 10^11 m.

Antireflective coatings on solar cells are often made by applying a thin film of silicon nitride (sinx), which has an index of refractive of 1.2, on the top of the silicon solar cell, which has a refractive index of about 3.5. however, the sun emits radiation of various wavelengths which the solar cell absorbs, and the antireflective coating can only absolutely minimize the reflection of one of these wavelengths. the coating thickness is chosen to reduce the reflection of green/yellow light (e = 2.2 ev), which is the most intense color in the solar spectrum (shown below). which of the following coatings would minimize reflection of green/yellow light? the answer is 820 nm how? what is the angular width of the central maximum of an electron traveling at 2 x 108 m/s going through a single slit of width 1 mm.
