Power = (energy) / (time)

15 minutes = 900 seconds

Power = (2.5mJ) / (900 sec)

<em>Power = 0.00278 mWatts</em>

If your 'm' means 'Mega...', then power = 2,777.8 watts ... about the same as a hefty restaurant toaster, or home microwave oven when it's cooking.

A baseball player exerts a force of 100 N on a ball for a distance of 0.5 mas he throws it. If the ball has a mass of 0.15 kg, w

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

25.82 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Force exerted by baseball player; F = 100 N

Distance covered by ball; d = 0.5 m

Mass of ball; m = 0.15 kg

Now, to get the velocity at which the ball leaves his hand, we will equate the work done to the kinetic energy.

We should note that work done is a measure of the energy exerted by the baseball player.

Thus;

F × d = ½mv²

100 × 0.5 = ½ × 0.15 × v²

v² = (2 × 100 × 0.5)/0.15

v² = 666.67

v = √666.67

v = 25.82 m/s

Floor lamps usually have a base with large inertia, while the long body and top have much less inertia. Part A If you want to sh

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia and this mathematically given as

$I = mr^2$

Where m is the mass

r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.

A large container, 120 cm deep is filled with water. If a small hole is punched in its side 77.0 cm from the top, at what initia

prisoha [69]

Answer:

The water will flow at a speed of 3,884 m/s

Explanation:

Torricelli's equation

v = $\sqrt{2gh}$

*v = liquid velocity at the exit of the hole

g = gravity acceleration

h = distance from the surface of the liquid to the center of the hole.

v = $\sqrt{2*9,8m/s^2*0,77m}$ = 3,884 m/s

A 4.00-kg box sits atop a 10.0-kg box on a horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the two boxes and betwe

natta225 [31]

First, we have to calculate the normal forces on different surfaces.The normal force on the 4.00 kg, N1 = (4)(9.8) = 39.2 N. The normal force on the 10.0 kg, N2 = (14)(9.8) = 137.2 N. Looking at the 10.0 kg block, the static forces that counteract the pulling force equals the sum of the friction from the two surfaces. Fc = N1 * 0.80 + N2 * 0.80 = 141.12 N. Since the counter force is less than the pulling force, the blocks start to move and hence, kinetic frictions are considered.

Therefore, f1 = uk * N1 = (0.60)(39.2) = 23.52 N.
