Answer:

1270 J

Explanation:

Recall that the mechanical energy of a system is the addition of the Potential energy and the Kinetic energy at any given time.

As the skier descends, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, but the total mechanical energy should remain the same.

We see that it is not the case, so that difference is what has gone into thermal energy; 19500 J - 18230 J = 1270 J

What upward gravitational force does a 5600kg elephant exert on the earth?

Anastaziya [24]

Force is determined by multiplying mass and gravity (F= mg). To determine the answer, the mass of the elephant (5600 kg) is multiplied with the gravity (9.8 m/s²). The answer is 5800 N. This is the upward gravitational force that the elephant exerts on the earth.

Long Snorkel: Inhalation of a breath occurs when the muscles surrounding the human lungs move to increase the volume of the lung

Mila [183]

Answer:

h = 0.362 m

Explanation:

The pressure equation with depth is

P₂ = $P_{atm}$ +ρ g h

The gauge pressure is

P2 - $P_{atm}$ = ρ g h

This is the pressure that muscles can create

P₂ - $P_{atm}$ = 3740 Pa

But still the person needs a small pressure for the transfer of gases, so

P₂ - $P_{atm}$ = 3740 - 188 = 3552 Pa

This is the maximum pressure difference, where the person can still breathe,

Let's clear the height

h = 3552 / ρ g

h = 3552 / (1000 9.8)

h = 0.362 m

This is the maximum depth where the person can still breathe normally.

Sasha lifts a couch 8.2 meters from the ground floor of her house to the attic. If the couch has a mass of 120 kg, what is the g

gavmur [86]

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by

$U = mgH$

here we have

m = mass = 120 kg

$g = 9.81 m/s^2$

h = height = 8.2 m

now from above formula

$U = 120kg (9.81 m/s^2) (8.2 m)$

$U = 9653.04 J$

so above is the gravitational potential energy of the couch

When operated on a household 110.0 V line, typical hair dryers draw about 1650 W of power. The current can be modeled as a long,

Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of household line, V = 110 V

Power of the hairdryer, P = 1650 W

During use, the current is about 1.95 cm from the user's hand.

(a) Power is given by :

$P=V\times I\\\\I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{1650\ W}{110\ V}\\\\I=15\ A$

(b) Again the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance of the dryer

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{1650}\\\\R=7.34\ \Omega$

(c) The magnetic field produced by the dryer at the user's hand is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}\\\\B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 15}{2\pi \times 1.95\times 10^{-2}}\\\\B=1.53\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A fire helicopter carries a 700-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee

rodikova [14]

Answer:

F = 50636.873 N

Explanation:

given,

bucket of water = 700-kg

length of cable = 20 m

Speed = 40 m/s

angle of the cable = 38.0°

let air resistance be = F

tension in rope be = T

T cos 38° = m×g..................(1)

$T sin 38^0= \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F$ ..........(2)

equation (1)/(2)

$tan 38^0 =\dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}$

$0.781=\dfrac{\dfrac{700\times 40^2}{20} + F}{700\times 9.8}$

F = 50636.873 N

Hence the force exerted on the bucket is equal to F = 50636.873 N
