 If a boat motor catches fire, you should immediately shut off the fuel supply, and try to put out the fire with an extinguisher. It is very important to have fully charged fire extinguishers on hand. As soon as you notice the fire activate the extinguisher and do not panic. In order to prevent fire remember to c<span>lean the bilges often and maintain proper gear stowage, make sure short-tie cables are properly connected...</span>

A 10 kilogram sled is pulled across a frictionless surface with a force of 50 newtons for a distance of 10 meters. The pull is a
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The power will be "250 watt". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 50 N

Displacement,

d = 20 m

Time,

t = 2.0 seconds

Whenever the block is pulled, the angle will be "0" i.e., Cos0° = 1

Now,

The work will be:

= Force\times displacement\times \Theta

On substituting the given values, we get

= 50\times 10\times Cos0^{\circ}

= 50\times 10\times 1

= 500 \ Newton

Now,

The Power will be:

= \frac{Work \ done}{time}

= \frac{500}{2.0}

= 250 \ watt

A motorcycle is traveling along a highway at 26 m/s. How far does the motorcycle travel in 15 s?​
leva [86]
26 m/s for fifteen seconds. distance = rate times time, so distance = 26 m/s * 15 seconds. this gives you distance = 390 meters.

A 3 kg bowling ball is thrown onto a mattress. If it takes 0.3 seconds to stop the ball using a force of 24 N, what was the init
enyata [817]

Answer:

-24 m/s

Explanation:

mass of the bowling ball =  3 kg

time (t) = 0.3 seconds

Force = 24 N

initial velocity u = ???

We know that;

Force = mass × acceleration (a)

So;

24 = 3 × a

a = 24/3

a = 8 m/s²

Also;

From equation of motion; acceleration is given by the relation;

a =\frac{v-u}{t}

if v = 0

then ;

8 = \frac{0-u}{0.3}

24 = 0- u

u = -24 m/s

Thus; the  initial velocity of the bowling ball when it first touched the mattress =  -24 m/s
