An electric fan has the power output of 60W. How much work is done if the fan operates for 120s?

1 answer:

4 0

Since power = work done/time, 60= work done/120, work done = 120*60 = 7200. So,work done = 7200N (Newton).
I'm not sure if you're supposed to convert the seconds to time.

If a body accelerates from a state of relative rest in a gravity field, where does the energy come from to transfer as kinetic e

Delvig [45]

The energy that transforms into kinetic energy is the Potential Energy. It happens that objects can store energy as a result of its position. Image for example a slingshot. When you stretch the slingshot, it stores energy, this energy would be the energy you used to stretch the slingshot, the material aborbs it and then release to throw the projectile.

Now, on earth and everywhere in the universe where you are close to an object with mass, it exists a force called gravity that attracts you towards that object. Every object that has mass exercises gravitational attration towards the other objects. It just happens that Earth is has so much mass that its gravitational pull is way stronger that the gravitational pull of another object on its surface. This means things will tend to be as close as earth as possible, and in order to move something away from earth, you will have to perform a force in the opposite direction to Earth and, therefore, consume energy. This energy will be store as potential energy, and when you drop the object, the potential energy will be the energy that will transform to kinetic energy.

Two protons are aimed directly toward each other by a cyclotron accelerator with speeds of 1200 km/s , measured relative to the

Radda [10]

Answer:

The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cyclotron = 1200 km/s

Initially the two protons are having kinetic energy given by

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

When they come to the closest distance the total kinetic energy is converts into potential energy given by

Using conservation of energy

$mv^2=\dfrac{kq^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{kq^2}{mv^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times10^{-27}\times(1200\times10^{3})^2}$

$r=9.57\times10^{-14}\ m$

We need to calculate the maximum electrical force

Using formula of force

$F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$F=\dfrac{8.99\times10^{9}\times(1.6\times10^{-19})^2}{(9.57\times10^{-14})^2}$

$F=2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$

Hence, The maximum electrical force is $2.512\times10^{-2}\ N$ .
