A team of bicyclists are on bikes that require 512 J of work to ride. It takes 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears. Wha

t is the mechanical efficiency of the bike?

Answer:

84.4 %

Explanation:

Mechanical efficiency = output work/input work × 100 %

output work = 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears

input work = 512 J of work to ride.

Mechanical efficiency =  432 J/512 J × 100 %

= 0.844 × 100%

= 84.4 %

A small metal bead, labeled A, has a charge of 28 nC .It is touched to metal bead B, initially neutral, so that the two beads sh
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge on bead A be q nC  and the charge on bead B be 28nC - qnC

Force F between them

4.8\times10^{-4} = \frac{9\times10^9\times q\times(28-q)\times10^{-18}}{(5\times10^{-2})^2}

=120 x 10⁻⁸ = 9 x q(28 - q ) x 10⁻⁹

133.33 = 28q - q²

q²- 28q +133.33 = 0

It is a quadratic equation , which has two solution

q_A = 21.91 x 10⁻⁹C or q_B = 6.09 x 10⁻⁹ C

A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 13.0 m/s.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a) Knowns, initial speed v_{i}=13.0 m/s, final speed v_{f}=0 m/s and gravity due it is a constant g=9.8m/s^{2}

b) The maximum high reached by the dolphin is y_{max}=8.62 m

c) Total time is t=2.65s

Explanation:

a) First of all the initial speed is given at the start of the problem, gravity is constant and final speed is known any object thrown straight up reaches its max high at 0m/s speed.

b) Second, now that we know final speed we use v_{f} =v_{i}-gt, as we clear for t=\frac{v_{i}-v_{f} }{g}=\frac{20.0m/s}{9.8m/s^{2} }=1.32 s.

Then we use y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}=(20.0m/s)(1.32s)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2} ) (1.32s)^{2}  =8.62m

c)Third, finally we can use y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}, as we know y=0m when the dolphin fall into the water again and v_{i} =13.0m/s, then we have 0=(13m/s)t-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2}  )t^{2} is a quadratic form 0=t(13.0-4.9t) so we have t_{i}=0s and t_{f}=\frac{13}{4.90}  =2.65s

R1=3 ohms
brilliants [131]

Answer: current I = 1.875A

Explanation:

If the resistors are connected in series,

Then the equivalent resistance will be

R = 6 + 18 + 15 + 9

R = 48 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

Make current I the subject of formula

I = V/R

I = 90/48

I = 1.875A

And if the resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be

1/R = 1/6 + 1/18 + 1/15 + 1/9

1/R = 0.166 + 0.055 + 0.066 + 0.111

R = 1/0.3999

R = 2.5 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

I = 90/2.5

Current I = 35.99A
