If an object has a mass of 1417g and it is moved 47 meters in 90 seconds, how much power was used?

astraxan [27]

Mass of the object is given as

$m = 1417 g = 1.417 kg$

now the speed of object is given as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

here we know that

$d = 47 m$

$t = 90 s$

now we will have

$v = \frac{47}{90} = 0.52 m/s$

now we will have kinetic energy of the object as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(1.417)(0.52)^2$

$KE = 0.19 J$

now the power is defined as rate of energy

so here we can find power as

$P = \frac{KE}{t}$

$P = \frac{0.19}{90} = 2.14\times 10^{-3} W$

so above is the power used for the object

A car changes velocity at a constant acceleration of 2.5m/s to reach 43.7m/s in 2.7 s how fast was the car moving when it began

Montano1993 [528]

The formula we can use in this case is:

v = v0 + a t

where v is final velocity, v0 is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So finding for v0:

v0 = v – a t

v0 = 43.7 – (2.5) 2.7

v0 = 36.95 m/s

A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,

shusha [124]

Answer:

$v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

$U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}$

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

$U_{0}=K_{f}$

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

$U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}$

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

$K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}$

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

$=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}$

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

$kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}$

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

$v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

If you were on a decision making board with the task of choosing which innovation to fund, what criteria would you use to make y

faust18 [17]

Explanation:

The criteria for decision making would be

1. I would fund for the school of young diabetics, for the sole purpose of them leaning and being motivated for a healthy lifestyle.

2. I would also fund for new and improved insulin pumps as old ones cause multiple problems.

What do work and energy have in common

spayn [35]

Energy and Work have the same unit of measurement which is Joules in SI units.

Explanation:

A Joule of Work is said to be done on an object when energy is transferred to that particular object.
If two objects are involved, when one object transfers energy onto the second, a joule of work is said to be done by the first object.
Work is also the application of force on an object over a distance. So Work = Force × Displacement
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is in 2 forms - kinetic and potential.
Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object while potential energy is known as the energy that is stored within an object.
Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²
Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height
Both energy and work are measured in Joules.
