PIT_PIT [208]3 years ago
3 0
I believe the sun is the primary source of energy for Earth's weather system. The sun is the primary energy source for Earth's climate system which is the first set of essential principles of climate sciences. Additionally, it is the primary source that drives all weather events, including precipitation, hurricane and tornadoes. The sun drives the hydrologic cycle, and makes life on Earth possible.

The tension in the rope is constant and equal to 40 N as the block is pulled. What is the instantaneous power (in W) supplied by
Eduardwww [97]

Complete Question:

A 10 kg block is pulled across a horizontal surface by a rope that is oriented at 60° relative to the horizontal surface.

The tension in the rope is constant and equal to 40 N as the block is pulled. What is the instantaneous power (in W) supplied by the tension in the rope if the block when the block is 5 m away from its starting point? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the floor is 0.2 and you may assume that the block starting at rest.

Answer:

Power = 54.07 W

Explanation:

Mass of the block = 10 kg

Angle made with the horizontal, θ = 60°

Distance covered, d = 5 m

Tension in the rope, T = 40 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu = 0.2

Let the Normal reaction = N

The weight of the block acting downwards = mg

The vertical resolution of the 40 N force, f_{y} = 40sin \theta

\sum f(y) = 0

N + 40 sin \theta - mg = 0\\N = -40sin60 + 10*9.81 = 0\\N = 63.46 N

\sum f(x) = 0

40 cos 60 - f_{r} - ma = 0\\ f_{r} = \mu N\\ f_{r} = 0.2 * 63.46\\ f_{r} = 12.69 N\\40cos 60 - 12.69-10a = 0\\7.31 = 10a\\a = 0.731 m/s^{2}

v^{2}  = u^{2} + 2as\\u = 0 m/s\\v^{2}  =  2 * 0.731 * 5\\v^{2}  = 7.31\\v = \sqrt{7.31} \\v = 2.704 m/s

Power, P = Fvcos \theta

P = 40 *2.704 cos60\\P = 54.074 W

If an object moving at 12 m/s has a kinetic energy of 72 j what is the mass
EleoNora [17]
Simply, apply the formula E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} and insert the values of m = mass, v = velocity and E = Energy.
The result will be 72J =  \frac{1}{2}m(12m/s)^{2}, m = 1 kg
