The speed of the snail is given by:

$v=\frac{S}{t}$

where S is the distance covered by the snail and t the time taken.

The snail in the problem moves by S=18 mm in t=24 s, therefore its speed is

$v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{18 mm}{24 s}=0.75 mm/s$

An airplane weighing 11,000 N climbs to a

Gennadij [26K]

The power in horsepower is 40.1 hp

Explanation:

We start by calculating the work done by the airplane during the climb, which is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

$W=(mg)\Delta h$

where

mg = 11,000 N is the weight of the airplane

$\Delta h = 1.6 km = 1600 m$ is the change in height

Substituting,

$W=(11,000)(1600)=17.6\cdot 10^6 J$

Now we can calculate the power delivered, which is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

$W=17.6\cdot 10^6 J$ is the work done

$t=9.8 min \cdot 60 = 588 s$ is the time taken

Substituting,

$P=\frac{17.6\cdot 10^6 J}{588}=2.99\cdot 10^4 W$

Finally, we can convert the power into horsepower (hp), keeping in mind that

$1 hp = 746 W$

Therefore,

$P=\frac{2.99\cdot 10^4}{746}=40.1 hp$

A toy cannon launches a 46-g golf ball straight up into the air with a kinetic energy of 6.8 J. What must the

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 17 m/s

Explanation :

Formula used :

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where,

K.E = kinetic energy = 6.8 J

m = mass of object = 46 g = 0.046 kg (1 kg = 1000 g)

v = velocity

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$6.8J=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.046kg\times v^2$

$6.8kg.m^2/s^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.046kg\times v^2$

$v=17.19m/s\approx 17m/s$

Therefore, the ball's velocity be as it leaves the cannon is, 17 m/s

Zinaida [17]

If the ground is flat, and both bullets are released at the same time from the same height, then they both hit the ground at the same time.

The horizontal motion of the one from the gun has no effect on its vertical motion.
