When the truck's weight is added to the boat, the boat sinks 5 cm deeper,
and displaces additional water whose weight is equal to the weight of the
truck.

The volume of the additional displaced water is

             (3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (5.0 cm)

         =  (3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (0.05 m)  =   1.2285 m³ .

The weight of that much water is the weight of the truck.

          Mass of 1 liter of water  =  1 kilogram

          1.2285 m³  =  1,228.5 liters  =  1,228.5 kg of water.

          Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

                      = (1,228.5 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  12,039 Newtons.

                                                                  (about 2,708 pounds)

How much time does it take 9,560 joules of work with 860 watts of power
tia_tia [17]

Explanation:

use equation power=watts/time

to find time rearrange to make time = power/wats

so you have your equation substitute the numbers

so 9560J/860W is 11 minutes

Answer:

The general shape of a frequency distribution. For many data sets, statisticians use this information to determine whether there is a “normal” distribution of values. In normal distributions, the mean, median, and mode are the same. Whether the distribution is symmetrical or skewed in a certain direction. If the data is skewed to the right, this shows the mean will be greater than the median. Similarly, if the data is skewed left, the mean will be less than the median. The symmetry, or asymmetry, of the chart can help statisticians calculate probability. The modality of the data set. This means how many peaks exist in the data. For normal distributions, there will be one peak, or mode, in the data set.

In just 0.30 s , you compress a spring (spring constant 5000 n/m ), which is initially at its equilibrium length, by 4.0 cm. par
Ierofanga [76]
The average power output is the ratio between the work done to compress the spring, W, and the time taken, t:
P= \frac{W}{t} (1)

The work done is equal to the elastic energy stored by the compressed spring:
W=U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where k=5000 N/m is the spring constant and x=4.0 cm=0.04 m is the compression of the spring. If we substitute the numbers, we find:
W= \frac{1}{2}(5000 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=4 J

And now we can use eq.(1) to calculate the average power output:
P= \frac{W}{t}= \frac{4 J}{0.30 s}  =13.3 W
