Answer:

553.8 Watts

0.74 Hp

Explanation:

Power is work done per unit time, expressed as

P=W/t

Where P is power, t is time taken and W is work done.

Work is the product of force and perpendicular distance moved hence W=Fd where F is force and d is perpendicular distance.

Substituting W with Fd into the first formula then power is expressed as

P=Fd/t

Substituting F with 600 N, d with 6 m and t with 6.5 seconds then

P=600*6/6.5=553.84615384615 Watts

Rounded off as 553.8W

1 W=0.00134 british horsepower

553.8 W=0.00134*553.8=0.742719926544903597 Hp

Alternatively, we divide the watts by 746 hence 553.8/746=0.7424211177562

Rounding off, power is equal to 0.74 Hp

A car goes round a curve of radius 48m, the road is banked at an angle of 15 with the horizontal,at what maximum speed may the c

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

11 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram. There are two forces acting on the car:

Weigh force mg pulling down

Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the incline

Sum the forces in the +y direction:

∑F = ma

N cos θ − mg = 0

N = mg / cos θ

Sum the forces in the radial (+x) direction:

∑F = ma

N sin θ = m v² / r

Substitute and solve for v:

(mg / cos θ) sin θ = m v² / r

g tan θ = v² / r

v = √(gr tan θ)

Plug in values:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 48 m × tan 15°)

v = 11.2 m/s

Rounded to 2 significant figures, the maximum speed is 11 m/s.

Calculate the phase angle (in radians) for a circuit with a maximum voltage of 12 V and w-50 Hz. The voltage source is connected

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.

(c) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 12 V

Angular velocity = 50 Hz

Capacitance $C= 20\times10^{-2}\ F$

Inductance $L=20\times10^{-3}\ H$

Resistance $R= 50\ Omega$

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

$z=\sqrt{R^2+(\omega L-\dfrac{1}{\omega C})^2}$

$z=\sqrt{50^2+(50\times20\times10^{-3}-\dfrac{1}{50\times20\times10^{-2}})^2}$

$z=50.00$

We need to calculate the phase angle

Using formula of phase angle

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{R}{z})$

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{50}{50.00})$

$\theta=0.0180\ rad$

Hence, The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.

What is the current through a 25 ohm resistor connected to a 5.0 V power supply? a 0.20 A b 5.0 A c 25 A d 30 A

zysi [14]

~Formula: Voltage= current• resistance
(V= Ir)
~Using this formula, plug in the numbers from the equation into the formula
~5=25i
~Now you have a one-step equation
~Divide by 25 on both sides and you should get your answer:
~I= 0.2 (which means current is 0.2)
