An electric hoist is used to lift a 235.0 kg load to a height of 69.0 m in 38.1 s. (a) what is the power of the hoist in kw?

1 answer:

4 0

$Given:\\m=235.0kg\\h=69.0m\\t=38.1s\\g=9.81 \frac{m}{s^2} \\\\Find:\\P=?\\\\Solution:\\\\P= \frac{W}{t}\\\\W=\Delta E_p\\\\E_p_0=0\Rightarrow \Delta E_p=E_p\\\\E_p=mgh \\\\P= \frac{mgh}{t} \\\\P= \frac{235kg\cdot9.81 \frac{m}{s^2}\cdot69m}{38.1s} \approx 4175W=4.175kW$

A 60-watt light bulb has a voltage of 120 bolts applied across it and a current of 0.5 amperes flows through the bulb. What is t

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

240 ohms

Explanation:

From Ohms law we deduce that V=IR and making R the subject of the formula then R=V/I where R is resistance, I is current and V is coltage across. Substituting 120 V for V and 0.5 A for A then

R=120/0.5=240 Ohms

Alternatively, resistance is equal to voltage squared divided by watts hence $\frac {120^{2}}{60}=240$

The engine in an imaginary sports car can provide constant power to the wheels over a range of speeds from 0 to 70 miles per hou

puteri [66]

Answer:

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

Explanation:

Given:

Range of speed during which constant power is supplied to the wheels by the car is $0\ mph\ to\ 70\ mph$ .

Initial velocity of the car, $v_i=0\ mph$

final velocity of the car during the test, $v_f=32\ mph=14.3052\ m.s^{-1}$

Time taken to accelerate form zero to 32 mph at full power, $t=1.2\ s$

initial velocity of the car, $u_i=0\ mph$

final desired velocity of the car, $u_f=64\ mph=28.6105\ m.s^{-1}$

Now the acceleration of the car:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

$a=\frac{14.3052-0}{1.2}$

$a=11.921\ m.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation of motion:

$u_f=u_i+a.t$

$64=0+11.921\times t$

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

For each of the motions described below, determine the algebraic sign (+, -, or 0) of the velocity and acceleration of the objec

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

A. Velocity is negative (-)

Acceleration is positive,(+)

B. Velocity is positive. (+)

Acceleration is negative (-)

C. Velocity is zero (0).

Acceleration is negative (-)

Explanation:

The elevator is said to be moving downward, therefore, its motion is in the negative direction as the positive direction is upward in the y-axis. Velocity is negative (-)

As the elevator is making an emergency stop, it is decelerating. Deceleration is negative acceleration. However, since it occurs in the opposite direction, i.e. acceleration vector is pointing upward, acceleration is positive,(+)

The motion of the ball is in the upward direction, therefore the velocity is positive. (+)

The acceleration due to the force of gravity acts in the opposite direction to that of the ball, i.e. downwards, acceleration is negative (-)

At maximum height, the ball will stop moving, therefore, velocity is zero (0).

Since acceleration due to the force of gravity acts downward, the acceleration is negative (-)
