Answer:

The red car would experience the greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Newton says that Force equals mass times acceleration or F = ma

We get a = F/m

If we want the greatest acceleration or a, mass or m must be the lowest.

If riding a lawnmower engine exerts 19 hp in one minute to move the lawnmower how much work is done

ioda

Answer:

the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Explanation:

Given;

power exerted by the lawnmower engine, P = 19 hp

time in which the power was exerted, t = 1 minute = 60 s.

1 hp = 745.7 watts

The work done by the lawnmower is calculated as follows;

$Work = Energy = \frac{Power}{time} \\\\Work = \frac{(19 \times 745.7)}{60} = 236.14 \ J$

Therefore, the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

You stand on a frictionless platform that is rotating with an angular speed of 5.1 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you ho

timurjin [86]

Answer:

$\omega'=19.419\ rev.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

angular speed of rotation of friction-less platform, $\omega=5.1\ rev.s^{-1}$

moment of inertia with extended weight, $I=9.9\ kg.m^2$

moment of inertia with contracted weight, $I'=2.6\ kg.m^2$

<u>Now we use the law of conservation of angular momentum:</u>

$I.\omega=I'.\omega'$

$9.9\times 5.1=2.6\times \omega'$

$\omega'=19.419\ rev.s^{-1}$

The angular speed becomes faster as the mass is contracted radially near to the axis of rotation.
