Stuntman's Freefall, a ride at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey, stands 39.6 meters high. Ignoring the force of friction,

what is the minimum power rating of the motor that raises the 1.20×105 kg ride from the ground to the top in 10.0 seconds at a constant velocity?

Answer:

Power, P=4.65\times 10^6\ watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass, m=1.2\times 10^5\ kg

Height of the free fall, h = 39.6 m

Time taken, t = 10 s

Let P is the power rating of the motor. The energy per unit time is called power delivered to an object. Its formula is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{1.2\times 10^5\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 39.6\ m}{10\ s}

P = 4656960 Watts

P=4.65\times 10^6\ watts

So, the power rating of the motor is 4.65\times 10^6\ watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Describes earth magnetic field​
Blizzard [7]
Earth's magnetic field, also known as the geomagnetic field, is the magnetic field that extends from the Earth's interior out into space, where it interacts with the solar wind, a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between a suitcase and the floor is 0.272. You may want to review (Pages 196 - 203) . Part A
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The work required to push will be equal to work done by friction . Let  d be the displacement required .

force of friction = mg x μ where m is mass of the suitcase , μ be the coefficient of friction

work done by force of friction

mg x μ x d   = 660

80 x 9.8 x .272 x d = 660

d = 3 .1 m .
