What is power?

Physics

Scrat [10]3 years ago

This question asks you what power is.

Your answer would be B) Power is the rate at which work is done

Power is not the amount of work that is being placed, but is a rate that could be measured.

For example, when you use more power, you would get things done more quickly. When you use less power, you get things done less quickly.

A visual example of the rate of power is charging an electric car. The more power you use to charge the car, the more quicker the car gets charged.

People mistakenly get mixed up with answer choice A, due to the fact that they see the word "rate", but the rest of the statement is false.

Therefore, answer choice B) Power is the rate at which work is done would be the correct answer.

A spherical soap bubble with a surface-tension of 0.005 lbf/ft is expanded from a diameter of 0.5 in to 3.0 in. How much work, i
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

Explanation: Work = Surface tension × (A1 - A2)

W= Surface tension × 3.142 ×(D1^2 - D2^2)

Where A1= Initial surface area

A2= final surface area

Given:

D1=0.5 inches , D2= 3 inches

D1= 0.5 × (1ft/12inches)

D1= 0.0417 ft

D2= 3 ×(1ft/12inches)

D2= 0.25ft

Surface tension = 0.005lb ft^-1

W = [(0.25)^2 - (0.0417)^2]

W = 954 ×10^6lbf ft × ( 1BTU/778lbf ft)

W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

guapka [62]

Answer:

K.E =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\  {v}^{2}_i  =  {v}^{2} _x + {v}^{2} _y \\  =  {(6)}^{2}  +  {( - 2)}^{2}  = 36 + 4 = 40m. {s}^{ - 1} \\ K.E_i =  \frac{1}{2} (3) (40) = 60J \\  \\ {v}^{2}_f  =  {v}^{2} _x + {v}^{2} _y \\  =  {(8)}^{2}  +  {(4)}^{2}  = 80m. {s}^{ - 1} \\ K.E_i =  \frac{1}{2} (3) (80) = 120J \\ W_{net}=K.E_f-K.E_i \\  = 120J - 60J \\  = 60J

Can you tell from the coefficient of restitution whether a collision has added kinetic energy to a system, taken some away, or l
Maurinko [17]
For an inelastic collision where coefficient of restitution,e, is equal to 0, the momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy. So, there is addition or elimination of kinetic energy.

On the otherhand, when e = 1, like for an elastic collision, kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Thus, the system's kinetic energy is unchanged.

A 47-kg packing crate is pulled with constant speed across a rough floor with a rope that is at an angle of 37 degrees above the
levacccp [35]

Tension in the rope due to applied force will be given as

F = 142 N

angle of applied force with horizontal is 37 degree

displacement along the floor = 6.1 m

so here we can use the formula of work done

W = F d cos\theta

now we can plug in all values above

W = 142 * 6.1 * cos37

W = 691.8 J

So here work done to pull is given by 691.8 J
