Answer:

20 Watts

Explanation:

Work = force × distance

W = (20 N) (10 m)

W = 200 Joules

Power = work / time

P = 200 J / 10 s

P = 20 Watts

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) t = 3.81 s

b) vf = 37.4 m/s

Explanation:

Data

height = 71.3 m = 234 feet

t = 0 m/s

vf = ?

vo = 0 m/s

Formula

h = vot + 1/2gt²

vf = vo + gt

Process

a)

h = vot + 1/2gt²

71.3 = 0t + 1/2(9.81)t²

2(71.3) = 9,81t²

t² = 2(71.3)/9.81

t² = 14.53

t = 3.81 s

b)

vf = 0 + (9.81)(3.81)

vf = 37.4 m/s

how much water is needed to produce 1kwh of electricity at a power plant that is 30% efficient if the temperature increase 10 C

Dimas [21]

The amount of water needed is 287 kg

Explanation:

The amount of energy that we need to produce with the power plant is

$E=1 kWh = (1000W)(1h)=(1000W)(3600s)=3.6\cdot 10^6 J$

We also know that the power plant is only 30% efficient, so the energy produced in input must be:

$E_{in}=\frac{E}{0.30}=\frac{3.6\cdot 10^6}{0.3}=1.2\cdot 10^7 J$

The amount of water that is needed to produce this energy can be found using the equation

$E_{in}=mC\Delta T$

where:

m is the amount of water

$C=4186 J/kg^{\circ}C$ is the specific heat capacity of water

$\Delta T=10^{\circ}C$ is the increase in temperature

And solving for m, we find:

$m=\frac{E_{in}}{C\Delta T}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^7}{(4186)(10)}=287 kg$

Which of the following is true about light?

ale4655 [162]

Light travels in waves AND in bundles called "photons".

It's hard to imagine something that's a wave and also a bundle.
But it turns out that light behaves like both waves and bundles.

If you design an experiment to detect waves, then it responds to light.

And if you design an experiment to detect 'bundles' or particles, then
that one also responds to light.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!

Sonbull [250]

Question 1

In order to do work, the force vector must be

in the same direction as the displacement vector and the motion.

Question 2

In which of the following cases is work being done on an object?

Pulling a trailer up a hill

Question 3

Which situation is an example of NOT doing work?

carrying a box

Question 4

Work is measured in

Joules

Question 5

To find the work done, the force exerted and distance moved are multiplied. A couch is moved twice before you are happy with its placement. The same force was used to move the couch both times. If more work is done the first time it is moved, what do you know about the distance it was moved?

When more work was done, the couch was moved further.

Question 6

A weight lifter raises a 1600 N barbell to a height of 2.0 meters. How much work was done? W = Fd

3200 Joules

Question 7

You and a friend (Alex) are at a a tree-top adventure park .. . . part of the course requires you to climb up a rope. You both climb the same rope in the same amount of time. However, the tension in the rope is greater

when Alex climbs. Who did the most work?

Alex did - more tension means more force - more force means more work was done

Question 8

Doing work at a faster rate creates power.

more

Question 9

In one challenge on the Titan Games, competitors have to lift 200 pounds up a long ramp. Angel is able to move the weight in 42 seconds. Anthony gets it done in only 38 seconds. Which statement is true?

Anthony has more power than Angel.

Question 10

A mountain climber exerts 41,000 J of work to climb a cliff. How much power does the climber need if she wants to finish in only 500 seconds? Power = Work / time

82 Watts

Question 11

Your family is moving to a new apartment. While lifting a box 83 Joules of work is done to put the box on a truck, you exert an upward force of 75 N for 3 s. How much power is required to do this? (Hint: You only need two of the 3 numbers given!) Power = Work / time

27.7 Watts
