Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Force and Power.

Since, according to the Newton's law,

Force = mass * Acceleration.

hence, here

Force = 142 N, accelration = 22.75 m/s2

hence, mass = 142/22.75

===> Mass = 6.24 Kg

hence the mass of the shot is 6.24 Kg

An electric motor consumes 10.8 kJ of electrical energy in 1.00 min . Part A If one-third of this energy goes into heat and othe

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0.458 N/m

Explanation:

Power = Energy/time

From the question,

Note: two-third of the energy into the motor,

Therefore,

P = 2/3(E)/t................. Equation 1

Where P = power of the motor, E = Electrical Energy, t = time

Given: E = 10.8 kJ = 10800 J, t = 1.00 min = 1/60 s

Substitute into equation 1

P = 10800(1/60)(2/3)

P = 120 W.

But,

The power of a rotating motor is given as,

P = Tω................ Equation 2

Where T = Torque of the engine, ω = angular velocity of the engine

Make T the subject of the equation

T = P/ω............... Equation 3

Given: P = 120 W, ω = 2500 rpm = (2500×0.1047) rad/s = 261.75 rad/s

Substitute into equation 3

T = 120/261.75

T = 0.458 N/m

Then the torque develop in the engine = 0.458 N/m

A force pair is produced when a tennis racket strikes a tennis ball. Which of the following best explains why the tennis ball do

Serga [27]

Answer:

Each half of the force pair acts on a different object.

Explanation:

When a tennis racket strikes a tennis ball a pair force is produced. when the racket strikes the ball the racket exerts an action force on the tennis ball, according to Newton's third law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction force, as a reaction the ball exert an equal and opposite force on the racket. These forces are often called pair forces.

As the forces acts on different bodies (Action force act on ball and reaction force act on racket) so the net force tennis ball is never zero.
