The amount of work done can be solved using the formula:

Work = Force x Distance = Change in kinetic energy

Kinetic energy can be solved using the formula: KE = (1/2)*m*v^2
So, change in kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(Vf)^2 - (1/2)*m*(Vo)^2

Where:

Vf = final velocity = 90 kph = 25 m/s
Vo = initial velocity = 72 kph = 20 m/s

substituting the given values:

Work = (1/2)*2500*(25^2) - (1/2)*2500*(20^2) = 281250 J, which can also be expressed as 2.8 x 10^5 Joules.

Among the choices, the correct answer is A.

Answer:

(1/2)*2500*(25^2) - (1/2)*2500*(20^2) = 281250 J, which can also be expressed as 2.8 x 10^5 Joules.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Technician  A  is right. The situation will happens even with only two bulbs in series

Explanation:

We must take into account that

1.- All electric device need its nominal voltage to operate

2.-Any and all electric device means an electric load for the source in terms of equation that means any device will implies a drop voltage of V = I*R ( I the flows current and R  the resistance of the device)

3.-Nominal voltage for bulbs are specify for houses voltages you find between fase and neutral wires for instance in Venezuela 120 (v).

4.-In a imaginary circuit of only one bulb, the nominal voltage will be applied and the bulb will operates correctly, but when you add another bulb (in series) the nominal voltage will split  between the two bulbs ( we  could find a situation such as the first bulb work properly but the second one does not). The voltage split according to Ohms law (in such way that the sum of voltage between the terminal of the first bulb plus the voltage at terminals of the second one are equal to nominal voltage.

For that reason all the bulbs are connected in parallel in wich case all of them will operate with the common voltage

the water behind hoover dam in nevada is 206 m higher than the colorado river below it. at what rate must water pass through the
Nitella [24]

Answer:

the required mass flow rate is 49484.37 kg/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we first determine the relation for mass flow rate of water that passes through the turbine;

so the relation for net work on the turbine due to the change in potential energy considering 100% efficiency is;

W_{net} = m ( Δ P.E )

so we substitute (gh) for ( Δ P.E );

W_{net} = m (gh)

m = W_{net} / gh

so we substitute our given values into the equation

m = 100 MW / ( 9.81 m/s²) × 206 m

m = ( 100 MW × 10⁶W/MW) / ( 9.81 m/s²) × 206 m

m = 10 × 10⁷ / 2020.86

m = 49484.37 kg/s

Therefore, the required mass flow rate is 49484.37 kg/s

You and your friend Peter are putting new shingles on a roof pitched at 20degrees . You're sitting on the very top of the roof w
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

v₀ =3.8 m/s

Explanation:

Newton's second law of the box:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Known data

m=2.1 kg  mass of the box

d= 5.4m  length of the roof

θ = 20° angle θ of the roof with respect to the horizontal direction

μk= 0.51 : coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the roof  

g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Forces acting on the box

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the box on the roof  and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

W: Weight of the box  : In vertical direction

N : Normal force : perpendicular to the direction the  roof

fk : Friction force: parallel to the direction to the roof

Calculated of the weight  of the box

W= m*g  =  (2.1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²)= 20.58 N

x-y weight components

Wx= Wsin θ= (20.58)*sin(20)° =7.039 N

Wy= Wcos θ =(20.58)*cos(20)°= 19.34 N

Calculated of the Normal force

∑Fy = m*ay    ay = 0

N-Wy= 0

N=Wy =19.34 N

Calculated of the Friction force:

fk=μk*N= 0.51* 19.34 N = 9.86 N

We apply the formula (1) to calculated acceleration of the block:

∑Fx = m*ax  ,  ax= a  : acceleration of the block

Wx-f = ( 2.1)*a

7.039 - 9.86  = ( 2.1)*a

-2.821 = ( 2.1)*a

a=(-2.821) /( 2.1)

a= -1.34  m/s²

Kinematics of the box

Because the box moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula to calculate the final speed of the block :

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d Formula (2)

Where:  

d:displacement  = 5.4 m

v₀: initial speed  

vf: final speed  = 0

a : acceleration of the box = -1.34  m/s²

We replace data in the formula (2)

0²=v₀²+2*(-1.34)*(5.4)

2*(1.34)*(5.4)= v₀²

v_{o} =\sqrt{14.472}

v₀ = 3.8 m/s
