A horse draws a sled horizontally across a snow-covered field. The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.13

5, and the mass of the sled, including the load, is 195.9kg. If the horse moves the sled at a constant speed of 1.785m/s, what is the power needed to accomplish this?

Answer:

P = 462.62 watts

Explanation:

The power needed to accomplish this can be calculated how

P = Fv

    Where F:  The force exerted by the horse

                v:  velocity

The force exerted by the horse is against friction force; how the movement is with constant velocity these forces must be equals, then

Fr = μN

    =μmg

    = (0.135)(195.9)(9.8)

    = 259.17 N

And the power is

P = (259.17)(1.785)

P = 462.62 watts

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its
max2010maxim [7]
The resistance of a conductor is given by
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where L is the length of the wire, \rho the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: L'=4 L, then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4  \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R

A 23 g bullet is accelerated in a rifle barrel 62 cm long to a speed of 593 m/s. Use the work-energy theorem to find the average
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The average force exerted on the bullet while it is being accelerated is 6,522.52 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the bullet, m = 23 g = 0.023 kg

length of the barrel, L = 62 cm = 0.62 m

speed of the bullet, v = 593 m/s

Applying work-energy theorem;

the work done in accelerating the bullet in the riffle = kinetic energy acquired by the bullet.

W = K.E

F x d = ¹/₂mv²

where;

d is the is the distance traveled by the bullet in the riffle = L

F(0.62) = ¹/₂ x 0.023 x (593²)

F(0.62) = 4043.964

F = (4043.964) / (0.62)

F = 6,522.52 N

Therefore, the average force exerted on the bullet while it is being accelerated is 6,522.52 N.

An object of mass 6.36 kg is released from rest and drops 2.05 m to the floor. The collision is completely inelastic. How much k
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Essentially all of it

Explanation:

The potential energy was

PE = mgh = 6.36(9.81)(2.05) = 127.90278 = 128 J

ignoring air resistance, this PE converts to KE

With no rebound final velocity is zero, so Kinetic energy lost = 128 J
