Answer: 552.5 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of man = 956 N

Height (h) = 2.41 m

Time taken (t) = 4.17 seconds

Power = ?

Recall that power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power = work/time

Thus, power = (mgh) / t

(Since weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity)

Power = (weight x height)/ time

Power = (956N x 2.41 m) / 4.17s

Power = 2303.96/4.17

Power = 552.5 watts

Thus, 552.5 watts of power is generated.

A spring requires 10 N of force to hold it 1 m past its natural length. How much work is required to stretch it from its natural
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

5 J

Explanation:

F = spring force required to stretch the spring = 10 N

x = stretch in the spring = 1 m

k = spring constant of the spring

Spring force is given as

F = k x

Inserting the values

10 = k (1)

k = 10 N/m

W = work done in stretching the spring

Work done is given as

W = (0.5)k x²

Inserting the values

W =  (0.5) (10) (1)²

W = 5 J

A tow truck is pulling a car out of a ditch by means of a steel cable (y = 2.0 x 1011 n/m2) that is 9.55 m long and has a radius
Anna11 [10]
If you know the real modulus of the cable (Y), the length, and the area (based on the radius), you can compute the spring constant, k = AE/L. Then, if you know the force used, you can compute the displacement, using F = kd, or d = F / k = FL/(AE). Our answer should work out to units of length. So, 
d = 803 N * 9.06 m / [pi*(0.574 cm)^2 * 2.0 x 10^11 N/m^2] 
d = 3.5 x 10^-8 Nm^3 / (cm^2 * N) 
d = 3.5 x 10^-8 m^3 / cm^2 * (100 cm / 1 m)^2 
d = 3.5 x 10^-4 m

a slender rod of mass m and length l is released from rest in a horizontal position. what is the rod's angular velocity when it
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

M g H / 2 = M g L / 2      initial potential energy of rod

I ω^2 / 2 = 1/3 M L^2 * ω^2 / 2   kinetic energy attained by rod

M g L / 2 = 1/3 M L^2 * ω^2 / 2

g = 3 L ω^2

ω = (g / (3 L))^1/2
