So we want to know what is the purpose of a lanyard attached to a safety switch. So in case the operator falls overboard a safety switch is installed and connected to the operators hand or waist. Which ever is more practical. This safety switch turns off the motor.

Answer:

To turn the engine off in a situation of pilot of person overboard.

Explanation:

Various safety laws have been implemented to prevent damage due to boats in case the person driving the boat goes overboard i.e. falls off the boat. One of these mandates the use of lanyard type cutoff switch with the lanyard tied to the wrist or clothes of the person driving the boat. In case the person goes overboard the engine will be cutoff as the lanyard will pull along the cutoff switch as well.

When you used the energy in our body to pull the rubber band, it was transformed into elastic potential energy. We know that ene
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Converted to heat energy

Explanation:

Some of the elastic potential energy is transformed into heat energy. When we stretch a rubber band, it is often observed that the rubber becomes warmer after the stretch and even during the stretch.

Some energy in the band initially at rest will be converted into elastic potential energy and heat energy as it is stretched .

  • The heat energy is not usually accounted for since the major concern most times is the elastic energy.
  • In this process, heat energy becomes a waste energy.
  • By deducing the efficiency, we would find that this transformation is not efficient as predicted by one of the laws of thermodynamics.

From the diagram The value of cos C × sin A = \frac{3}{4}

<h3>Determine the numerical value of cos C × sin A</h3>

First step : determine the values of cos C and sin A

cos C = adjacent / hypotenuse

          = a / b

          = \sqrt{3}  / 2

          = √3/2

sin A = sin 60⁰

         = √3/2

Therefore the numerical value of cos C * sin A = \frac{3}{4}

In conclusion From the diagram The value of cos C × sin A = \frac{3}{4}

A 4400 W motor is used to do work. If the motor is used for 200 s, how much work could it do? (Power: P = W/t)
guajiro [1.7K]
So if p=w/t
then 4400=(w)(200)
so you would multiply 4440•200 and get 880,000

Famed stunt pilot, Cleonvia Thread, pulls out rapidly from a dive. He is traveling at 222 mi/h at the bottom of his trajectory,
Simora [160]

Answer:

0.39 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

a = v²/r.................... Equation 1

Where v = velocity, r = radius.

Given: v = 222 mi/h = (222×0.44704) m/s = 9.83 m/s, r = 820 ft = (820×0.3048) m = 249.94 m.

Substitute thses values into equation 1

a = 9.83²/249.94

a = 96.63/249.94

a = 0.39 m/s²

Hence the  acceleration is 0.39 m/s²
