Kinetic of automobile

Mass m = 1,250 Kg;         V = 11 m/s

Formula: K.E = 1/2 mV²

               K.E = 1/2(1,250 Kg)(11 m/s)²

               K.E = 75,625 J

Speed required for insect to have the same kinetic energy as automobile

Mass of insect = 0.72 g convert to Kg   m = 7.2 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

K.E = 1/2 mV²  Derive V =?

 V = 2 K.E/m

 V = √2(75,625 J)/7.2 x 10⁻4 Kg

 V = √2.1 x 10⁸ m²/s²

 V = 14,491.34 m/s  (velocity of insect)

A climber pulls herself 8 meters upwards with a force of 150 Newtons. If it takes her 16 seconds to cover the 8 meters, how much
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

 P = 75 W

Explanation:

given,

Distance, L = 8 m

Force,F = 150 N

Time, t = 16 s

Work by the climber

Work done = Force x displacement

W = F. L

W = 150 x 8

W = 1200 J

We know,

Power =\dfrac{Work\ done}{time}

P =\dfrac{1200}{16}

 P = 75 W

Hence, Power climber is using to climb is equal to 75 W.

A man drags a 71-kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity by pulling on a strap attached to the bottom of the crate. The
Flura [38]

Answer:

T = 540 N   (to two significant digits)

Explanation:

Let the crate dimension L be from strap attachment to floor contact

Let T be the strap tension

sum moments about the floor contact point to zero

mg[½Lcos25] - Tsin61[Lcos25] + Tcos61[Lsin25] = 0

L is common to all terms, so divides out.

½(71)(9.8)cos25 = T(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25)

T = (71)(9.8)cos25 / (2(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25))

T = 536.428020...

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a mass-less seesaw. If they both move forward so that they are one-half their
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced
