It takes 100,832 J of work to lift an elevator 18.3 meters. If this is done in 21.0 seconds, what is the average power of the el
Aneli [31]

Answer:

P=4801.5

Explanation:

Given :

work done = W = 100,832 J

time = 21.0 sec

Find:

P = ?

Formula:

P = W/t

Solution:

P = W/t

P = 100,832/21.0

  =  4801.52 J/s or Watts

1. An asphalt block has a mass of 90 kg and a volume of 0.075 m. Determines the density of the asphalt.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

1. Density = 1200[kg/m^3]; 2. Volume= 0.005775[m^3], mass= 15.59[kg]

Explanation:

1. We know that the density is defined by the following expression.

Density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\where:\\mass=90[kg]\\volume=0.075[m^{3} ]\\density=\frac{90}{0.075} \\density=1200[\frac{kg}{m^{3} }]

2. First we need to convert the units to meters.

wide = 35[cm] = 35/100 = 0.35[m]

long = 11 [dm] =  11 decimeters = 11/10 = 1.1[m]

Thick = 15[mm] = 15/1000 = 0.015[m]

Now we can find the density using the expression for the density.

density= \frac{mass}{volume} \\where:\\volume = wide*long*thick\\volume=0.35*1.1*0.015 = 0.005775[m^3]\\\\mass= density*volume = 2700*0.005775 = 15.59[kg]

_____________(kinetic energy released in matter) specifies the intensity of x-rays at a given point in air at a known distance f
Natali [406]

Answer:

Air kerma

Explanation:

The acronym for the word 'kerma' is $\text{"kinetic energy released per unit mass"}$. It is the sum or the total of the kinetic energies of the $\text{charged particles}$ that is liberated by the uncharged ionizing radiation in the small sample of a matter, and is divided by the mass of that sample.

It is sometimes used for expressing the radiation concentration that is delivered to a point.

It is used to specify the intensity of the x-rays for any given point in the air at some known distance form the local spot. The total air kerma can be monitored in the fluoroscopic procedure.
