convert watts to hpThe headlights of a moving car draw about 9 A from the 12 V alternator, which is driven by the engine. Assume

the alternator is 85% efficient (its output electrical power is 85% of its input mechanical power), and calculate the horsepower the engine must supply to run the lights.

Answer: 0.17hp

Explanation:

Power output = power input × 85%

Power output = power input × 0.85

Power input = IV/0.85

Power input = 9×12/0.85

Power input = 108/0.85

= 127.058 watts

Converting to horse power = 127.058W × 1horse power/745.7W

= 127.058 × 0.001341

= 0.17hp

A soccer ball is kicked from the ground with an initial speed v at an upward angle θ. A player a distance d away in the directio
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

U = √Rg/sin2θ

Explanation:

Using the formula for "range" in projectile motion to derive the average speed before the ball hits the ground.

Range is the distance covered by the body in the horizontal direction from the point of launch to the point of landing.

According to the range formula,

R = U²sin2θ/g

Cross multiplying we have;

Rg = U²sin2θ

Dividing both sides by sin2θ, we have;

U² = Rg/sin2θ

Taking the square root of both sides we have;

√U² = √Rg/sin2θ

U = √Rg/sin2θ

Therefore, his average speed if he is to meet the ball just before it hits the ground is √Rg/sin2θ

I have a question, it concerns hydrostatic buoyancy and Archimedes' law.
saw5 [17]

Answer: the lvl wud remain the same

Explanation: as per Archimedes Principle, the weight of the water displaced by the object is equal to the weight of the object. When the ship initially went into the pool, it wud hv displaced some water. When the anchor is dropped, the level does not change coz the anchor was already in the ship and no extra weight has been added, so the weight of the anchor has already been accounted for in the first place when the ship was first placed in the pool
