By definition, the speed of an object is given by:

$v = \frac{dr}{dt}$

Where,

dr/dt: derived from the position with respect to time

Therefore, speed has units of length over units of time.

Thus, speed is a derived quantity, since it depends on the value of two other quantities.

Answer:

a derived quantity is:

C. Speed

What is the average power output pf a weight lifter who can lift 250 kg 2.0 m in 2.0 s

liq [111]

Answer:

Power = 2.45Kw or 2450 Watts.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, m = 250kg

Height, h = 2m

Time, t = 2secs

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8m/s²

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

$Power = \frac {Energy}{time}$

But Energy = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have

$Power = \frac {mgh}{time}$

$Power = \frac {250*9.8*2}{2}$

$Power = \frac {4900}{2}$

Power = 2450 Watts

To convert to kilowatt (Kw), we would divide by 1000

Power = 2450/1000

Power = 2.45Kw.

Therefore, the average power output of the weightlifter is 2.45 Kilowatts.

If you wish to warm 100 kg of water by 20°C for your bath, how much heat is required? (Give your answer in calories and joules.)

taurus [48]

Q = mcθ

Where m = mass of water in kg.
c = specific heat capacity in kJ/kg⁰C, c for water = 4200 kJ/kg⁰C
θ = temperature rise in ⁰C

Q = 100*4200* 20 Note here the temperature rise is 20 ⁰C
Q = 8 400 000 J

In calories, 4.2 J = 1 Calorie
= 8 400 000 / 4.2 = 200 000

Q = 200 000 Calories

A 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S goes from 0-27 m/s in 2.5 seconds. What is the car's acceleration?

Natalka [10]

Answer:

-10.8m/s^2

Explanation:

a=change in velocity/change in time

-27 m/s/2.5=10.8m/s^2

or if its not negative

27m/s/2.5=10.8m/s^2
