Answer:

The strength of gravity on Venus is 8.91m/s².

Explanation:

The strength of gravity on a planet is given by the following formula:

g = w/m

In which w is the weight, in newtons, and m is the mass, in kg.

In this problem, we have that:

Textbook weighs 19.6 newtons on Venus.

This means that w = 19.6

mass of 2.2 kg

So m = 2.2

What is the strength of gravity on that planet?

g = w/m = 19.6/2.2 = 8.91

The strength of gravity on Venus is 8.91m/s².

A crane used 250,000 Joules of work to move a beam to the top of a building in 20 seconds. How much power did the crane use?
maria [59]

Answer:

12500W

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Work done  = 250000J

Time taken  = 20s

Unknown:

Power of the crane = ?

Solution:

Power is the defined as the rate at which work is being done;

  Mathematically;

        Power = \frac{work done}{time }

 insert the parameters and solve;

      Power  = \frac{250000}{20}   = 12500W

A stuntman with a mass of 80.5 kg swings across a moat from a rope that is 11.5 m. At the bottom of the swing the stuntman's spe
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

  • No
  • 5.49 m/s

Explanation:

The net force required to accelerate the stuntman in a circular arc of radius 11.5 m will be ...

  F = mv²/r . . . . where this m is the mass being accelerated, v is the tangential velocity, and r is the radius.

Here, the net force needs to be ...

  F = (80.5 kg)(8.45 m/s)²/(11.5 m) . . . . . where this m is meters

  ≈ 499.8175 kg·m/s² = 499.8 N

Gravity exerts a force on the stuntman of ...

  F = mg = (80.5 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 788.9 kg·m/s² = 788.9 N

Then the tension required in the rope/vine is ...

  499.8 N+788.9 N= 1288.7 N

This is more than the capacity of the rope, so we do not expect the stuntman to make it across the moat.

_____

The allowed net force for centripetal acceleration is ...

  1000 N -788.9 N = 211.1 N

Then the allowed velocity is ...

  211.1 = 80.5v²/11.5

  30.16 = v² . . . .  multiply by 11.5/80.5

  5.49 = v . . . . . . take the square root

The maximum speed the stuntman can have is 5.49 m/s.

_____

<em>Comment on crossing the moat</em>

The kinetic energy at the bottom of the swing translates to potential energy at the end of the swing. At the lower speed, the stuntman cannot rise as high, so will traverse a shorter arc. At 8.45 m/s, the moat could be about 16.8 m wide; at 5.49 m/s, it can only be about 11.5 m wide.

What is the general relationship between earthquake epicenters and volcano positions along the Pacific coast of Mexico and Centr
yanalaym [24]

Geographically throughout this area of Mexico, Central America Caribbean is located the Cocos plate. This area is scientifically known as the Central American subduction zone.

In order for a volcano to form, there is usually a clash between the technical plates that generates the elevation of the ground and the connection with ducts that release the magma from the earth. If this entire area is a subduction area, it will also be a land stress release area where volcano lines will be formed, that is, it is a convergent plate boundary area

Find the energy u of the capacitor in terms of c and q by using the definition of capacitance and the formula for the energy in
gtnhenbr [62]

The formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

<h3>What is the energy of a capacitor?</h3>

The energy of a capacitor u = 1/2qv where

  • q = charge on capacitor and
  • v = voltage across capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance of a capacitor?</h3>

Also, the capacitance of a capacitor c = q/v where

  • q = charge on capacitor and
  • v = voltage across capacitor.

So, v = q/c

<h3>The formula for energy of the capacitor in terms of q and c</h3>

Substituting v into u, we have

u = 1/2qv

= 1/2q(q/c)

= q²/2c

So, the formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c
