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

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.

A Shaolin monk of mass 60 kg is able to do a ‘finger stand’: he supports his whole weight on his two index fingers, giving him a

Answer:

P = 1471500 [Pa]

Explanation:

We must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over the area.

$P=F/A$

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

A = area of contact = 4 [cm²]

But first we must convert from cm² to m²

$A = 4[cm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{100^{2} cm^{2} }$

A = 0.0004 [m²]

Also, the weight should be calculated as follows:

$w = m*g$

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

$w = 60*9.81\\w = 588.6[N]$

And the pressure:

$P=588.6/0.0004\\P=1471500 [Pa]$

Because 1 [Pa] = 1 [N/m²]

Car A is traveling west at 40 mi/h and car B is traveling north at 40 mi/h. Both are headed for the intersection of the two road

Gwar [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h, $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h

The negative sign indicates that x and y are decreasing.

We have to find $\frac{dz}{dt}$ . Equation for the given variables according to the Pythagoras theorem is as follows.

$z^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}$

Now, we will differentiate each side w.r.t 't' as follows.

$2z\frac{dz}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}$

or, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

So, when x = 4 mi, and y = 3 mi then z = 5 mi.

As, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

= $\frac{1}{5}(4 \times (-40) + 3 \times (-40))$

= $\frac{-140 - 120}{5}$

= 52

Thus, we can conclude that the cars are approaching at a rate of 52 mi/h.
