How will the amount of power change if less work is done in more time?
yKpoI14uk [10]

The amount of power change if less work is done in more time"then the amount of power will decrease".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rate of performing any work or activity by transferring amount of energy per unit time is understood as power. The unit of power is watt

Power = \frac{Work}{Time}  

Here this equation showcase that power is directly proportional to the work but dependent upon time as time is inversely proportional to the power i.e as time increases power decreases and vice versa.

This can be understood from an instance, on moving a load up a flight of stairs, the similar amount of work is done, no matter how heavy but  when the work is done in a shorter period of time more power is required.

A hiker begins a trip by first walking 25.0 km southeast from her car. She stops and sets up her tent for the night. On the seco
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

(a)

x_1=17.68km\\y_1=-17.68km\\x_2=20km\\y_2=34.64km

(b) r=41.32km

\alpha =24.23^o

Explanation:

Let us take the north direction to be the positive y-axis and the east to be positive x-axis.

First day:

25.0 km southeast, which implies 45^o south of east. The y-component will be negative and the x-component will be positive.

x_1=25cos45^o=17.68km

y_1=-25sin45^o=-17.68km

Second day:

She starts off at the stopping point of last day. This time, both the y- and x-components are positive.

x_2=40cos60^o=20km

y_2=40sin60^o=34.64km

Therefore, total displacements:

x=x_1+x_2=(17.68+20)km=37.68km

y=y_1+y_2=(-17.68+34.64)km=16.96km

Magnitude of displacements,

r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=41.32km

Direction,

\alpha =tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})=24.23^o

You yell into a canyon. You hear the echo in 3 seconds. How long did the sound of your voice travel before bouncing off a cliff?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.

Explanation:

The sound is an example of mechanical wave, which means that it needs a medium to propagate itself at constant speed. The time needed to hear the echo is equal to twice the height of the canyon divided by the velocity of sound. In addition, the speed of sound through the air at a temperature of 20 ºC is approximately 344 meters per second. Then, the height of the canyon can be derived from the following kinematic formula:

2\cdot h = v\cdot t (1)

Where:

h - Height, measured in meters.

v - Velocity of sound, measured in meters per second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that  v = 344\,\frac{m}{s} and t = 3\,s, then the height of the canyon is:

h = \frac{v\cdot t}{2}

h = \frac{\left(344\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (3\,s)}{2}

h = 516\,m

The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.

A point charge q1=2.0μC is located on the positive y axis at y=0.30m, and an identical charge q2 is at the origin. Find the magn
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

(A) 0.279N at angle 38.02°

(B) 0.701N

(C) 14.19°

Explanation:

(A) The net force on q3 is given as:

F = Fxi + Fyj

Fx is the x component of the force

Fy is the y component of the force

Fx = -F(1, 3)cos(90 - x) + F(2, 3)cos0

Fy = -F(2, 3)cosx - F(2, 3)cos90 = -F(2, 3)cosx

First let us find y and angle x from the diagram.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

y² = 0.3² + 0.4²

y² = 0.25

y = 0.5m

Using SOHCAHTOA to find x,

sinx = 0.4/0.5

x = 53.13°

Electrostatic force, F is given as:

F = kqQ/r²

Where k = Coulumbs constant

F(1,3) = (k*q1*q3) / r²

F(1, 3) = (9 * 10^9 * 2.0 * 10^(-6) * 4.0 * 10^(-6)) / (0.5²)

F(1, 3) = 0.288N

F(2,3) = (k*q2*q3) / r²

F(2, 3) = (9 * 10^9 * 2.0 * 10^(-6) * 4.0 * 10^(-6)) / (0.4²)

F(2, 3) = 0.45N

Therefore,

Fx = -0.288cos36.87 + 0.45

Fx = 0.22N

Fy = 0.288cos53.13

Fy = 0.172N

=> F = 0.22i + 0.172j

The magnitude of the force will be

F(mag) = √(0.22² + 0.172²)

F(mag) = 0.279N

The direction of the force makes will be

tanθ = Fy/Fx

tanθ = 0.172/0.22 = 0.781

θ = 38.02° to the x axis.

(B) q2 = - 2.0 * 10^(-6)

This implies that:

F(2,3) = (k*q2*q3) / r²

F(2, 3) = (9 * 10^9 * -2.0 * 10^(-6) * 4.0 * 10^(-6)) / (0.4²)

F(2, 3) = -0.45N

Therefore,

Fx = -0.288cos36.87 - 0.45

Fx = -0.68N

Fy = 0.172N

=> F = - 0.68i + 0.172j

The magnitude of the force will be

F(mag) = √((-0.68)² + 0.172²)

F(mag) = 0.701N

(C) The direction of the force makes will be

tanθ = 0.172/0.68

θ = 14.19° to the x axis
