Moreover, the work done on an object by a net force is equals to the change in kinetic energy of the object, which is expressed as W = KEf - KEi. </span></span></span>
<span>Therefore, if the hammer hits the nail with twice the speed, it corresponds to 4 times the energy and four times the driving distance. If the hammer hits with three times the speed, the driving distance is 9 times as much.</span>

4500 miles to inches
Volgvan

Answer:

2.8512*10^8 inches

Explanation:

Seeing as the ratio for miles to inches is 1 mile = 63360 inches, set up an equation. 1 mile / 63360 inches = 4500 miles / x inches. Cross multiply and simplify to 2.8512*10^8 inches. Hope this helps! :)

The rechargeable batteries for a laptop computer need a much smaller voltage than what a wall socket provides. Therefore, a tran
mart [117]

Answer:

(a) 0.075

(b)20.1 mA

(c) 2.412 W

Explanation:

Vs = 9 V, is = 268 mA = 0.268 A

Vp = 120 V

(a) Let the number of turns in primary coil is Np and the number of turns in secondary coil of the transformer is Ns.

Ns / np = Vs / Vp

Ns / Np = 9 / 120

Ns / Np = 3 : 40 = 0.075

(b) Let the current drawn from the wall socket is ip.

Ns/ Np = ip / is

0.075 = ip / 0.268

ip = 0.0201 A = 20.1 mA

(c) Power delivered by the socket = Vp x ip = 120 x 0.0201 = 2.412 W

Power sent to the batteries = Vs x is = 9 x 0.268 = 2.412 W

After fixing a flat tire on a bicycle you give the wheel a spin. If its initial angular speed was 6.36 rad/s and it rotated 14.7
lesya692 [45]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the cinematic equations of angular motion. On these equations, angular acceleration is defined as the squared difference of angular velocity over twice the radial displacement. This is mathematically:

\alpha = \frac{\omega^2-\omega_0^2}{2\theta}

Our values are,

\text{Initial angular velocity} = \omega_0 =6.36 rad/s

\text{Final angular velocity} =  \omega =0

\text{Angular displacement} =  \theta = 14.7rev = 29.4\pi rad

Replacing,

\alpha = \frac{- 6.36^2}{29.4\pi}

\alpha = -0.43rad/s^2

Therefore the angular acceleration is -0.43rad/s^2

Read each scenario below. Then select the answer that best completes each sentence.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The power used by raul's microwave must be the power used by katrina's because his microwave took time to do the same amount of work.

Explanation:

The power from a car engine is the power of a bicycle because a car engine does the same amount of work in time. raul and katrina equally shared a frozen lunch but heated each portion in two different microwaves. katrina's lunch was warm in one minute while raul's lunch took two minutes. the power used by raul's microwave must be the power used by katrina's because his microwave took time to do the same amount of work.
