A dog sledding team is composed of a 82.8 kg musher (the person driving the sled), a 21.4 kg sled, and four dogs. Assume that ea

ch dog's pull is fully transmitted to the sled, applied parallel to the ground, and the sled travels along level ground. How much power does each dog supply to pull the sled and driver system at a constant speed of 8.90 m/s if the coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.150

Answer:

340.8 watt for each dog

Explanation:

Now, Work = Force x Displacement

We have to calculate power,

Now for power we will divide equation with time "t"

Work/time = Force x Displacement/time

So, equation becomes,

Power = Force x velocity

Now we  have to calculate net force acting upon system.

Net force = Force - Frictional force

Since, Coefficient of friction = F/N

Where F = force acting to slide and N = Normal force acting towards center of earth

Net Force = ma - (coefficient of friction x normal force)

now  0 = ma - 0.15 x {9.8 x (82.8 + 21.4)}

0 = (Force - 153.17) N

Force = 153.17 N

Notice that  "net force" will become "0" because velocity is constant.

So,

Power = Force x Velocity

Power = 153.17 x 8.9

Power = 1363.2 watt

Now for each dog

Power = 1363.2/4

Power = 340.8 watt

Why do we need the periodic table? First to answer get brainless!!!!!
mylen [45]
<span>The periodic table is the most important chemistry reference there is. It arranges all the known elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass.

Explain what a concentration gradient is and what it means for a molecule to diffuse down its
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.

Explanation:

A gradient of concentration is the difference between in concentration of one place / area substance to different area. Having a molecule flow down its concentration gradient means moving the molecules from hypotonic areas to the concentration hypertonic areas

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.
