Answer:

Power input, P = 2880 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of the motor, V = 240 V

Current required, I = 12 A

Weight lifted, W = 2000 lb

It is lifting at a speed of 25 ft/min. We need to find the power input to the motor. The product of current and voltage is called power input of the motor.

$P=I\times V$

$P=12\ A\times 240\ V$

P = 2880 watts

So, the power input of the motor is 2880 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

A block of a plastic material floats in water with 42.9% of its volume under water. What is the density of the block in kg/m3?

adell [148]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of buoyancy of Archimedes and the relationship given between density, mass and volume.

By balancing forces, the force of the weight must be counteracted by the buoyancy force, therefore

$\sum F = 0$

$F_b -W = 0$

$F_b = W$

$F_b = mg$

Here,

m = mass

g =Gravitational energy

The buoyancy force corresponds to that exerted by water, while the mass given there is that of the object, therefore

$\rho_w V_{displaced} g = mg$

Remember the expression for which you can determine the relationship between mass, volume and density, in which

$\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = V\rho$

In this case the density would be that of the object, replacing

$\rho_w V_{displaced} g = V\rho g$

Since the displaced volume of water is 0.429 we will have to

$\rho_w (0.429V) = V \rho$

$0.429\rho_w= \rho$

The density of water under normal conditions is $1000kg / m ^ 3$ , so

$0.429(1000) = \rho$

$\rho = 429kg/m^3$

The density of the object is $429kg / m ^ 3$

A gold sphere of radius R=100 μm and density 19g/cm^3 falls through water. Given the viscosity of water is about 10^-3 Pa s and

icang [17]

The terminal velocity of gold sphere is 39.2 cm/s

<h3>What is terminal velocity?</h3>

Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable for an object as it falls through a fluid.

<h3>How to calculate the terminal velocity of the gold sphere?</h3>

The terminal velocity of the gold sphere is given by v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η where

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²,
r = radius of sphere = 100 μm = 100 × 10⁻⁶ m = 10⁻⁴ m = 10⁻² cm,
ρ = density of sphere = 19 g/cm³,
σ = density of water = 1.0 g/cm³ and
η = viscosity of water = 10⁻³ Pa-s

So, susbtituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η

v = 2 × 9.8m/s²× (10⁻² cm)²(19 g/cm³ - 1.0 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × (18 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 980 cm/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × 2 g/cm³/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 3920 g/s² × 10⁻⁴/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 392 cm/s × 10³ × 10⁻⁴

v = 392 × 10⁻¹ cm/s

v = 39.2 cm/s

So, the terminal velocity is 39.2 cm/s
