Answer:
Explanation:
We need the power equation for this which is
P = Work/time
We have everything we need to solve this (the mass of the object is extra information):
P = 6860/4
P = 1715W
Answer:
0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.
Explanation:
First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:
P₁ = F/A
where,
P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?
F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²
P₁ = 0.088 psi
Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.
P₂ = F/A
where,
P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?
F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²
P₂ = 0.144 psi
Now, the difference between both pressures is:
ΔP = P₂ - P₁
ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi
<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>
