From the calculations, the power expended is 43650 W.

<h3>What is the power expended?</h3>

Now we can find the acceleration from;

v = u + at

u = 0 m/s

v = 95 km/h or 26.4 m/s

t = 6.8 s

a = ?

Now

v = at

a = v/t

a = 26.4 m/s/ 6.8 s

a = 3.88 m/s^2

Force = ma = 850-kg * 3.88 m/s^2 = 3298 N

The distance covered is obtained from;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = 2as

s = v^2/2a

s = (26.4)^2/2 * 3.88

s = 696.96/7.76

s = 90 m

Now;

Work = Fs

Work = 3298 N * 90 m = 296820 J

Power = 296820 J/ 6.8 s

= 43650 W

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic is

$u_{k}=0.59$

Explanation:

The forces in the axis 'x' and 'y' using law of Newton to find coefficient of kinetic friction

ΣF=m*a

ΣFy=W-N=0

ΣFy=Fn-Fu=m*a

$F_{u} =u_{k} *N\\F_{N}=25N\\N=W\\N=3.5kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }=34.3N$

$F_{N}-F_{u}=m*a\\F_{N}-u_{k}*N=m*a\\u_{k}*N=F_{N}-m*a\\u_{k}=\frac{F_{N}-m*a}{N}$

Now to find the coefficient can find the acceleration using equation of uniform motion accelerated

$v_{f} ^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a(x_{f}-x_{o})\\x_{o}=0\\v_{o}=0\\v_{f} ^{2}=2*a*x_{f}\\a=\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2*a*x_{f}}\\ a=\frac{(1.53\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2*0.91m}\\a= 1.28 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

So replacing the acceleration can fin the coefficient:

$u_{k}=\frac{F_{N}-m*a }{N}\\u_{k}=\frac{25N-(3.5kg*1.28\frac{m}{s^{2}} }{34.3N} \\u_{k}=0.59$

Why is the perfect mechine is not possible in the real life?

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Because the mechanical advantage of the machine is affected by friction and weight but velocity ratio is not. So, mechanical advantage is less than velocity rate. Thus, the machine's efficiency is less than 100% and can't be a perfect machine
