For electrical devices . . .

           Power dissipated = (voltage) x (current) =

                                             (12 V)  x  (3.0 A) = 36 watts .

1 watt means 1 joule per second

           (36 joule/sec) x (60 sec/min) x (10 min)  =  21,600 joules

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Well concluding there is no gravity their motions would be slow and lightweighted. Let's say they were playing on Earth it would approximately take around 5 to 6 minutes even less, so in space it will approximately take around 10 to 12 minutes may be more but this is just my opinion after using my calculator! Hope this helped!

A satellite of mass m circles a planet of mass M and radius R in an orbit at a height 2R above the surface of the planet. What m
Goryan [66]

Answer:

ΔE = GMm/24R

Explanation:

centripetal acceleration a = V^2 / R = 2T/mr

T= kinetic energy

m= mass of satellite, r= radius of earth

= gravitational acceleration = GM / r^2

Now, solving for the kinetic energy:

T = GMm / 2r = -1/2 U,

where U is the potential energy

So the total energy is:

E = T+U = -GMm / 2r

Now we want to find the energy difference as r goes from one orbital radius to another:

ΔE = GMm/2 (1/R_1 - 1/R_2)

So in this case, R_1 is 3R (planet's radius + orbital altitude) and R_2 is 4R

ΔE = GMm/2R (1/3 - 1/4)

ΔE = GMm/24R

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, straps on his skis and starts down a 50-m-high, 20 frictionless slope. A strong headwind exerts a hori
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sam mass=75kg

Height is 50m

20° frictionless slope

Horizontal force on Sam is 200N

According to the work energy theorem, the net work done on Sam will be equal to his change in kinetic energy.

Therefore

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

Note initial the body was at rest at top of the slope.

Then, ∆K.E is K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

K.E Is given as ½mv²

Since initial velocity is zero then, K.E(initial ) is zero

Therefore, ∆K.E=½mVf²

Wg is work done by gravity and it is given by using P.E formulas

Wg=mgh

Wg=75×9.8×50

Wg=36750J

Ww is work done by wind and it's is given by using formulae for work

Work=force × distance

Ww=horizontal force × horizontal distance

Using Trig.

TanX=opposite/adjacent

Tan20=h/x

x=h/tan20

x=50/tan20

x=137.37m

Then,

Ww=F×x

Ww=200×137.37

We=27474J

Now applying the formula

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

36750 - 27474 =½×75×Vf²

9276=37.5Vf²

Vf²=9275/37.5

Vf²= 247.36

Vf=√247.36

Vf=15.73m/s

A 6.0-kg ball is sliding to the right at 25.0m/s and strikes a second ball (15-kg) that is initially at rest head-on. After the
katrin [286]

Answer:

15 m/s to the right

Explanation:

Let's say right is positive and left is negative.

Momentum is conserved:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(6.0 kg) (25.0 m/s) + (15 kg) (0 m/s) = (6.0 kg) (-12.5 m/s) + (15 kg) v₂

v₂ = 15 m/s
