Answer: 217.52 N
Explanation: The applied force is 20 N, the distance covered is 12.0 m and the angle is 25° above the horizontal.
Hence the formulae that defines work done is given by
W = Force × distance
But since the force has been inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal, the horizontal component of force is neccesary to produce the required motion to make the child do work on the wagon.
Hence
Work done = (horizontal component of force) × distance
Work done = F cos θ × distance
Work done = 20 cos 25 × 12 = 217.52 N
Complete question is;
Shoveling snow can be extremely taxing since the arms have such a low efficiency in this activity. Suppose a person shoveling a sidewalk metabolizes food at the rate of 800 W. (The efficiency of a person shoveling is 3%.)
(a) What is her useful power output? (b) How long will it take her to lift 3000 kg of snow 1.20 m? (This could be the amount of heavy snow on 20 m of footpath.) (c) How much waste heat transfer in kilojoules will she generate in the process?
Answer:
A) P_out = 24 W
B) t = 1470 s
C) Q = 1140.72 KJ
Explanation:
We are given;
Input Power; P_in = 800 W
Efficiency; η = 3% = 0.03
A) Formula for efficiency is;
η = P_out/P_in
Making P_out the subject, we have;
P_out = η•P_in
P_out = 0.03 × 800
P_out = 24 W
B) We know that;
Power = work done/time taken
Thus;
P_out = mgh/t
We are given;
m = 3000 kg
h = 1.20 m
Thus, time is;
t = (3000 × 9.8 × 1.2)/24
t = 1470 s
C) amount of heat wasted is calculated from;
Q = (P_in - P_out)t
Q = (800 - 24) × 1470
Q = 1,140,720 J
Q = 1140.72 KJ
The answer I found was parabola?
Answer:
A short circuit is an electrical circuit that allows a current to travel along an unintended path. It has no or very low electrical impedances. The opposite of a short circuit
