Answer:

The temperature is 233.15 K

Explanation:

Recall the formula to convert degree Celsius (C) into Fahrenheit (F):

\frac{9}{5} C+32=F

So if we want the value of degree C to be the same as the value of the degree F, we want the following: C = F

which replacing F with C on the right hand side of the equation above, allows us to solve for C:

\frac{9}{5} C+32=F\\\frac{9}{5} C+32=C\\\frac{9}{5} C-\frac{5}{5} C =-32\\\frac{4}{5} C==32\\C= \frac{-32\,*\,5}{4} \\C=-40

This means that -40°C = -40°F

And this temperature in Kelvin is:

-40°C + 273.15 = 233.15 K

How long will it take a 2190 W motor to lift a 1.47 x 104 g box, 6.34 x 104 mm vertically.​
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t = 4.17 [s]

Explanation:

We know that work is defined as the product of force by distance.

W = F*d

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

d = distance = 6.34 x 10⁴ [mm] = 63.4 [m]

In order to find the force, we must determine the weight of the box, the weight can be determined by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

w = m*g

where:

m = mass = 1.47 x 10⁴ [g] = 14.7 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

w = 14.7*9.81

w = 144.2 [N]

Therefore the work can be calculated.

W = w*d

W = 144.2*63.4

W = 9142.72 [J] (units of Joules)

Power is now defined in physics as the relationship of work at a given time

P = W/t

where:

P = power = 2190 [W]

t = time [s]

Now clearing t, we have.

t = W/P

t = 9142.72/2190

t = 4.17 [s]

A stunt car driver testing the use of air bags drives a car at a constant speed of25 m/s for a total of 100m. He applies his bra
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The graphs are attached

Explanation:

We are told that he starts with a constant speed of 25 m/s for a distance of 100 m.

At constant velocity, v = distance/time

time(t) = distance(d)/velocity(v)

t1 = 100/25

t1 = 4 s

Now, we are told that he applies his brakes and accelerates uniformly to a stop just as he reaches a wall 50m away.

It means, he decelerate and final velocity is zero.

Thus;

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 25² + 2a(50)

25² = - 100a

625 = - 100a

a = - 625/100

a = - 6.25 m/s²

v = u + at

0 = 25 + (-6.25t)

25 = 6.25t

t = 25/6.25

t = 4 s

With the values gotten, kindly find attached the distance-time and velocity-time graphs.

A 0.305 kg book rests at an angle against one side of a bookshelf. The magnitude and direction of the total force exerted on the
tankabanditka [31]

Answer

given,

F_L= 1.52\ N

\theta_L= 31^0

mass of book = 0.305 Kg

so, from the diagram attached  below

F_L cos {\theta_L} + F_b sin {\theta_b} = m g

1.52 times cos {31^0} + F_b sin {\theta_b} = 0.305 \times 9.8

F_b sin {\theta_b} = 2.989 -1.303

F_b sin {\theta_b} = 1.686

computing horizontal component

F_b cos {\theta_b} = F_L sin {\theta_L}

cos {\theta_b} = \dfrac{F_L sin {\theta_L}}{F_b}

cos {\theta_b} = \dfrac{1.52 \times sin {31^0}}{1.686}

cos {\theta_b} = 0.464

θ = 62.35°

550 J of work must be done to compress a gas to half its initial volume at constant temperature. How much work must be done to c
Over [174]

Answer:

The amount of work that must be done to compress the gas 11 times less than its initial pressure is 909.091 J

Explanation:

The given variables are

Work done = 550 J

Volume change = V₂ - V₁ = -0.5V₁

Thus the product of pressure and volume change = work done by gas, thus

P × -0.5V₁ = 500 J

Hence -PV₁ = 1000 J

also P₁/V₁ = P₂/V₂ but V₂ = 0.5V₁ Therefore  P₁/V₁ = P₂/0.5V₁ or P₁ = 2P₂

Also to compress the gas by a factor of 11 we have

P (V₂ - V₁) = P×(V₁/11 -V₁) = P(11V₁ - V₁)/11 = P×-10V₁/11 = -PV₁×10/11 = 1000 J ×10/11  = 909.091 J of work
