The power output in horsepower to raise the object is 13.14 horsepower(Hp).

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is known that power required to perform a work is defined as the ratio of energy utilized to do that work per unit time. So, we can write power as the ratio energy utilized to time taken for completing that work.

Thus,

              Power =\frac{\text { Energy utilized to do a work }}{\text { Time taken to complete a work }}

As we known that energy utilized to complete a work will be equal to the work done on the object. Thus,

   Energy utilized = Work done =Weight \times displacement

So,

      Power =\frac{\text {Weight} \times \text { Displacement }}{\text { Time taken }}

As it is given in the question that mass of the object is 2000 kg and the object is displaced to 5 m from the ground. So the displacement will be 5 m and the weight of the object can be determined by multiplying the mass with acceleration due to gravity.

Thus, the power formulation can be written as  

     Power =\frac{m \times a \times d}{t}

     Power =\frac{2000 \times 9.8 \times 5}{10}=9800 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{s}=9800 \mathrm{W}

But, we need to find in horsepower unit. So, the conversion between watt and horsepower unit is

                    1 horsepower (hp) = 745.7 watts

Thus,

          Power =9800 watts =745.7$ horsepower unit

          Power =\frac{9800}{745.7}=13.14 horsepower unit

So, the power output in horsepower unit is 13.14 horsepower (Hp).

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

50 W

Explanation:

Case 1

Power = V * I

100 = 220 * I

I = \frac{100}{220} A

Case 2

P = V * I

P = 110 * \frac{100}{220}

P = 50 W

I think the answer is 50 W

Hope it helps

By what factor will the acceleration of an object change its mass stays constant but the force acting on it triples
Viktor [21]

Answer:

lacceleration is given by

a=F/m

With force acting on the object remained constant ,the acceleration is inversly proportional to mass of the object i.e with increase in mass =>acceleration decreases and with decrease in mass => acceleration increases.

a)

acceleration decreases

b)

acceleration increase

A student is creating a table with properties of electromagnetic and mechanical waves.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The property of the wave marked X is related to the source of the wave

Explanation:

The source of of origin of waves

Electromagnetic wave are waves that consists of varying electric and magnetic field that vibrate perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation of the wave and they are therefore transverse waves and transfer energy

Electromagnetic waves originate from the vibration of charged particles that gives off varying electric and magnetic fields

Mechanical waves are defined as waves that require a material medium such as air, water, metal, plastic, stretched leather, or wood to propagate

Mechanical waves originate from vibration of the particles of a medium

Sound waves which is a form of longitudinal mechanical waves that propagates by the vibration of the particles of a given medium about a point parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.
