The first statement is true, because the US worker can produce 10 more caps in the same amount of time as the French worker, the US has a comparative advantage when making caps.

Explanation :

It is considered that a US worker can produce 50 caps per hour or 1 sweater per hour and a French worker can produce 40 caps per hour and 2 sweaters per hour.

In one hour, A US worker can produce either 50 caps or 1 sweater.

While in one hour a French worker can produce 40 caps and 2 sweaters.

In this case, the efficiency and production rate is not given. So, we can't compare this scenario.

Hence, the correct option is (c) " Neither country has a comparative advantage producing either good ".

The distance of the earth from the sun is 93 000 000 miles. if there are 3.15 × 107 s in one year, find the speed of the earth i
faltersainse [42]

The angular velocity of the orbit about the sun is:

w = 1 rev / year = 1 rev / 3.15 × 10^7 s

 

Now in 1 rev there is 360° or 2π rad, therefore:

w = 2π rad / 3.15 × 10^7 s

 

To convert in linear velocity, multiply the rad /s by the radius:

v = (2π rad / 3.15 × 10^7 s) * 93,000,000 miles

<span>v = 18.55 miles / s = 29.85 km / s</span>

An object of mass 24kg is accelerated up a frictionless place incline at an angle of 37° with horizontal by a constant force, st
RoseWind [281]

a) Average power: 1425 W

b) Instantaneous power at 3.0 sec: 2850 W

Explanation:

a)

The motion of the object along the ramp is a uniformly accelerated motion (because the force applied is constant), so we can use the suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s = 18 m is the displacement along the ramp

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 3.0 s is the time taken

a is the acceleration of the object along the ramp

Solving for a,

a=\frac{2s}{t^2}=\frac{2(18)}{(3.0)^2}=4 m/s^2

Now we can apply Newton's second law to find the net force on the object:

F=ma=(24 kg)(4 m/s^2)=96 N

This net force is the resultant of the applied force forward (F_a) and the component of the weight acting backward (mg sin \theta), so we can find what is the applied force:

F=F_a - mg sin \theta\\F_a = F+mg sin \theta = 96+(24)(9.8)(sin 37^{\circ})=237.5 N

where

m = 24 kg is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Now we can finally find what is the work done by the applied force, which is parallel to the ramp, therefore:

W=F_a s = (237.6)(18)=4276 J

where s = 18 m is the displacement.

Therefore the average power needed is:

P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{4276}{3}=1425 W

b)

The instantaneous power at any point of the motion is given by

P=F_av

where

F_a is the force applied

v is the velocity of the object

We already calculated the applied force:

F_a=237.5 N

While since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can find the velocity at the end of the 3.0 seconds using the suvat equation:

v=u+at=0+(4)(3.0)=12.0 m/s

And therefore, the instantaeous power at 3.0 sec is:

P=Fv=(237.5)(12)=2850 W
