Some gliders are launched from the ground by means of a winch, which rapidly reels in a towing cable attached to the glider. Wha

t average power must the winch supply in order to accelerate a 156-kg ultralight glider from rest to 24.9 m/s over a horizontal distance of 58.0 m? Assume that friction and air resistance are negligible, and that the tension in the winch cable is constant.

Answer:

P=627.47W

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to take into account, that the work done by the winch is

W=Fh

the force, at least must equal the gravitational force

F=Mg=(156kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})=1258.8N

with force the tension in the cable makes the winch go up.

The work done is

W=(1258.8N)(58.0m)=73010.4J

To calculate the power we need to know what is the time t. But first we have to compute the acceleration

The acceleration will be

v_f^2=v_0+2ah\\a=\frac{v_f^2}{2h}=\frac{(24.9\frac{m}{s})}{2(58.0m)}=0.214\frac{m}{s^2}

and the time t

v_f=v_0+at\\t=\frac{v_f}{a}=116.35s

The power will be

P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{73010.4J}{116.35s}=627.47W

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

Natalija [7]

Answer: 7022.2kg/m³, yes, I was cheated

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the ratio of the mass of the object to its volume. Mathematically;

Density = Mass/Volume

Note that the unit of both mass and volume must be standard unit.

Given mass = 0.0158kg

Dimension of the metal = 5mm×15mm×30mm

Note that 1mm = 0.001m

The volume of the metal will be

0.005×0.015×0.03

= 0.00000225m³

Density = 0.0158/0.00000225

Average density of the metal = 7022.2kg/m³

Since the standard density of Gold is 19,320kg/m³ and is higher than the density prescribed for me, it shows the I was cheated.

Calculate the current through a 10.0-m long 22-gauge nichrome wire with a radius of 0.321 mm if it is connected across a 12.0-V
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Therefore,

Current through Nichrome wire is 0.3879 Ampere.

Explanation:

Given:

Length = l = 10 meter

Radius = r = 0.321\ mm =0.321\times 10^{-3}\ meter

Resistivity=\rho=1.00\times 10^{-6}\ ohm\ meter

V = 12 Volt

To Find:

Current, I =?

Solution:

Resistance for 0.0-m long 22-gauge nichrome wire with a radius of 0.321 mm if it is connected across a 12.0-V battery given as

R=\dfrac{\rho\times l}{A}

Where,

R = Resistance

l = length

A = Area of cross section = πr²

\rho=Resistivity=1.00\times 10^{-6}\ ohm\ meter

Substituting the values we get

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-6}\times 10}{3.14\times (0.321\times 10^{-3})^{2}}

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-5}}{3.23\times 10^{-7}}

R=\dfrac{1\times 10^{2}}{3.23}

R=30.95\ ohm

Now by Ohm's Law,

V= I\times R

Substituting the values we get

I=\dfrac{V}{R}=\dfrac{12}{30.95}=0.3876\ Ampere

Therefore,

Current through Nichrome wire is 0.3879 Ampere.

Consider the static equilibrium diagram here. What is the angle F1 must make with the horizontal?
Nataly [62]

ANSWER


\theta=35\degree


EXPLANATION


Since the body is in equilibrium, total upward forces must equal total downward force.


Also the net horizontal forces acting on the body must be zero.



We need to resolve F_1 into vertical and horizontal components.



The horizontal component is


x=F_1\cos\theta.


The vertical component is


y=F_1\sin\theta.



Equating the up force to the downward forces gives,


F_1\sin\theta + 20N=60N.


This implies that,



F_1\sin\theta =60N-20N.




F_1\sin\theta=40N...eqn1




Also the horizontal forces must be equal.


F_1\cos\theta=57N...eqn2.



Dividing equation (1) by equation (2) gives,


\frac{F_1\sin\theta}{F_1\cos\theta}=\frac{40}{57}.


\Rightarrow \tan\theta=0.70175





\Rightarrow \theta=tan^{-1}(0.70175)


\Rightarrow \theta=35.0594.




Therefore the given angle that F_1 must make with the horizontal is approximately 35° to the nearest degree.

In this problem, you will analyze a system composed of two blocks, 1 and 2, of respective masses m1 and m2. To simplify the anal
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a) p = m1 v1 + m2 v2 , b) dp / dt = m1 a1 + m2 a2 , c) It is equivalent to force

dp / dt = 0

Explanation:

In this problem we have two blocks and the system is formed by the two bodies.

Part A. Initially they ask us to find the moment of the whole system

    p = m1 v1 + m2 v2

Part B.

Find the derivative

     dp / dt = m1 dv1dt + m2 dv2 / dt

     dp / dt = m1 a1 + m2 a2

Part C.

Let's analyze the dimensions

     m a = [kg] [m / s2] = [N]

It is equivalent to force

Part d

Acceleration is due to a net force applied

Part e

The acceleration of block 1 is due to the force exerted by block 2 during the moment change

Part f

Force of block 1 on block 2

True f12 = m1a1        f21 = m2a2

Part g

By the law of action and reaction are equal magnitude F12 = f21

Part H

     dp / dt = 0

Isolated system F12 = F21 and the masses are constant. The total moment is only redistributed
