That 85 kg paratrooper from the 50's was moving at constant speed of 56 m/s because the air was applying a frictional drag force

to him that matched his weight. If he fell this way for 40 m, how much heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J

Answer:

46648 J

Explanation:

mass m= 85 Kg

velocity v = 56 m/s

distance covered s =40 m

According to Question,

frictional drag force to him that matched his weight

\Rightarrow F_d =mg\\=85\times9.81=833 N

Therefore, work done by practometer against the drag force = heat was generated by this frictional drag force in J

W=Q= F_d×s

=833×56 = 46648 J

Disk A, with a mass of 2.0 kg and a radius of 60 cm , rotates clockwise about a frictionless vertical axle at 20 rev/s . Disk B,
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Explanation:

  • let m1 = 2 kg
  • r1 = 60 cm = 0.6 m
  • w1 = -20 rev/s (clockwise)

I1 = 0.5 x m1 x r1²

= 0.5 x 2 x 0.6²

= 0.36 kg.m²

m2 = 2 kg

r2 = 40 cm = 0.4 m

w2 = 20 rev/s (counter clockwise)

I2 = 0.5 x m2 x r2²

= 0.5 x 2 x 0.4²

= 0.16 kg.m²

let wf be the final angular velocity of the two disks.

Applying conservation of angular momentum ;

(I1 + I2) x wf = I1 x w1 + I2 x w2

wf = (I1 x w1 + I2 x w2) / (I1 + I2)

= (0.36 x (-20) + 0.16 x 20 )/(0.36 + 0.16)

= -7.69rev/s

The negative sign indicates the disks rotate clockwise direction.

The ________ is located inside the outdoor condenser unit and receives the low-pressure refrigerant vapor through the suction li
dusya [7]

Answer:

Compressor

Explanation:

Compressor - the compressor is a unit that placed at the inner side of the condenser. The main function of the compressor is to increase the pressure by reducing the volume of air. And this reduced volume of air is compressed for the cleaning purpose of the air tube. While condenser is used for heat exchange which converts steam into liquid form.  

It is advisable not to operate the compressor when the outside temperature is below 65 degrees F.

In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.34 m/s, due west. This average velocity results be
Ivanshal [37]

We can define average velocity as:

av = (total distance travelled)/(total time)

Only using the above equation, we will find that she walked 807.3m due east.

<em>The given information is:</em>

The average velocity is 1.34 m/s due west.

(we can define west as the positive side and east as the negative side).

We know that first, she hikes 6.44km due west with an average velocity of 2.68 m/s.

To get the total time it took we write the equation:

2.68 m/s = (6,440m)/(time)

time = 6,440m/(2.68 m/s) = 2,402.9 seconds.

Then she hikes a distance D due east with an average velocity of 0.447 m/s, because she goes due east, we will write -D in the equations.

Now using the same equation as before, we can get the time as:

time' = -D/(-0.447 m/s) = D/(0.447 m/s)

Now the equation for the total average velocity will be:

1.34 m/s = (6,440m - D)/(2,402.9 s +  D/(0.447 m/s))

Now we need to solve this for D.

(1.34 m/s)*(2,402.9 s +  D/(0.447 m/s)) =  (6,440m - D)

(1.34 m/s)*(2,402.9 s) + (1.34 m/s)*(D/(0.447 m/s) =6,440m - D

(1.34 m/s)*(D/(0.447 m/s) + D = 6,440m - (1.34 m/s)*(2,402.9 s) = 3,229.1 m

D*(1 + (1.34m/s)/(0.447 m/s)) = 3,229.1 m

D*4 = 3,229.1 m

D =  3,229.1 m/4 = 807.3 m

We can conclude that she walked 807.3m due east.

La velocidad de la luz en el vacío es c= 3000.000 km\s la luz del sol tarda en llegar a la tierra 8 minutos y 14 segundos
ehidna [41]

La velocidad correcta de la luz en el vacío es  300.000 km/s .

La distancia = (velocidad) x (duración de tiempo)

Duración de tiempo = 494 segundos, porque cada minuto = 60 segundos

La distancia = (300.000 km/s) x (494 s)

<em>La distancia = 148.200.000 km</em>
