A hockey puck is pushed by a stick with a force of 750 newtons. The puck travels 2.0 meters in 0.30 seconds. How powerful is the

The work done by the force pushing the puck is equal to the product between the force and the distance covered:
W=Fd=(750 N)(2.0 m)=1500 J

And the power is the work done per unit time:
P= \frac{W}{t}
and using t=0.30 s, we find the power:
P= \frac{1500 J}{0.30 s}=5000 W

A 450g mass on a spring is oscillating at 1.2Hz. The totalenergy of the oscillation is 0.51J. What is the amplitude.
Volgvan

Answer:

A=0.199

Explanation:

We are given that  

Mass of spring=m=450 g==\frac{450}{1000}=0.45 kg

Where 1 kg=1000 g

Frequency of oscillation=\nu=1.2Hz

Total energy of the oscillation=0.51 J

We have to find the amplitude of oscillations.

Energy of oscillator=E=\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2A^2

Where \omega=2\pi\nu=Angular frequency

A=Amplitude

\pi=\frac{22}{7}

Using the formula

0.51=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.45(2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2A^2

A^2=\frac{2\times 0.51}{0.45\times (2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2}=0.0398

A=\sqrt{0.0398}=0.199

Hence, the amplitude of oscillation=A=0.199

A spring-powered dart gun is unstretched and has a spring constant 16.0 N/m. The spring is compressed by 8.0 cm and a 5.0 gram p
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant = 16N/m

Extension of spring

x = 8cm = 0.08m

Mass

m = 5g =5/1000 = 0.005 kg

The ball will leave with a speed that makes its kinetic energy equal to the potential energy of the compressed spring.

So, Using conservation of energy

Energy in spring is converted to kinectic energy

So, Ux = K.E

Ux = ½ kx²

Then,

Ux = ½ × 16 × 0.08m²

Ux = 0.64 J

Since, K.E = Ux

K.E = 0.64 J

Consider a father pushing a child on a playground merry-go-round. the system has a moment of inertia of 84.4 kg · m2. the father
-Dominant- [34]
<span>At time t1 = 0 since the body is at rest, the body has an angular velocity, v1, of 0. At time t = X, the body has an angular velocity of 1.43rad/s2. Since Angular acceleration is just the difference in angular speed by time. We have 4.44 = v2 -v1/t2 -t1 where V and t are angular velocity and time. So we have 4.44 = 1.43 -0/X - 0. Hence X = 1.43/4.44 = 0.33s.</span>

In a series circuit, a generator (1300 Hz, 12.0 V) is connected to a 14.0- resistor, a 4.40-μF capacitor, and a 6.00-mH inductor
klemol [59]

Answer:

(a) 2.8 V

(b) 5.6 V

(c) 9.8 V

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the generator (f) = 1300 Hz)

Terminal voltage (V) =12.0 V

Resistance of resistor (R) = 14.0 Ω

Capacitance of capacitor (C) = 4.40 μF = 4.40 × 10⁻⁶ F

Inductance of the inductor (L) = 6.00 mH = 6.00 × 10⁻³ H

In order to find the voltages across each, we first need to find the reactance and impedance.

Reactance of the inductor is given as:

X_L=2\pi f L\\\\X_L=2\times 3.14\times 1300\times 6.00\times 10^{-3}\\\\X_L=49\ \Omega

Reactance of the capacitor is given as:

X_C=\frac{1}{2\pi fC}\\\\X_C=\frac{1}{2\times 3.14\times 1300\times 4.40\times 10^{-6}}\\\\X_C =28\ \Omega

Now, impedance is given as:

Z=\sqrt{X_L^2+X_C^2}\\\\Z=\sqrt{(49)^2+(28)^2}\\\\Z=\sqrt{3185}=56.4\ \Omega

Current across the circuit is given as:

I=\frac{V}{Z}\\\\I=\frac{12}{56.4}=0.2\ A

As resistor, capacitor and inductor are connected in series, the current across each of them is same and equal to total current in the circuit.

(a)

Voltage across the resistor is given as:

V_R=IR\\\\V_R=0.2\times 14=2.8\ V

Therefore, the voltage across resistor is 2.8 V.

(b)

Voltage across the capacitor is given as:

V_C=IX_C\\\\V_C=0.2\times 28=5.6\ V

Therefore, the voltage across the capacitor is 5.6 V.

(c)

Voltage across the inductor is given as:

V_L=IX_L\\\\V_L=0.2\times 49=9.8\ V

Therefore, the voltage across the inductor is 9.8 V.

When a comet enters the inner solar system, what part of the comet always points most directly away from the Sun
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Comet Tail

Explanation:

A comet tail— and coma — are characteristics that are evident in comets when the Sun illuminates them and can become apparent from Earth when a comet travels through the inner part of the Solar System.

While a comet enters the inner part of  solar system, sunlight causes the toxic materials inside the comet to vaporize and float out of the center, sweeping away particles with them.

Two, distinct tails are created from dust and gases, being visible by different occurrences; the dust simply reflects sunlight, and the gasses shine through ionization.
