Answer:
the rate that the energy of a system is transformed
Explanation:
We can define energy as the capacity or ability to do work. Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the rate at which energy is transformed. It can also be regarded as the time rate of energy transfer. In older physics literature, power is sometimes referred to as activity.
Power is given by energy/time. Its unit is watt which is defined as joule per second. Another popular unit of power is horsepower. 1 horsepower = 746 watts.
Very large magnitude of power is measured in killowats and megawatts.
Answer:
122.5 N/m
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy, if there is no air resistance or frictional forces, the initial elastic potential energy of the spring toy is entirely converted into gravitational potential energy when the toy reaches the highest point.
Therefore, we can write:
where the term on the left is the initial elastic potential energy while the term on the right is the gravitational potential energy, and where
k is the spring constant
x = 0.02 m is the compression of the spring
m = 0.01 kg is the mass of the toy
h = 0.25 m is the height reached by the toy
is the acceleration due to gravity
Solving for k,
The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is
directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in
the form of:
d = k t^2
where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs /
s^2
<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t
= 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>
2 = k (2)^2
k = 2 / 4
k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2
The equation becomes:
d = 0.5 t^2
Now solving for d when t = 4:
d = 0.5 (4)^2
d = 0.5 * 16
<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
Answer:
4 m/s
Explanation:
KE=1/2mv^2
720=1/2(90)
720=45v^2
divide by 45
16= v^2
over the square root
4=v
v= 4m/s
Total mass of the Sun = 2x10^30kg
<span>So 76% of that = (2x10^30kg)*(0.76) = 1.52x10^30kg ----> total amount of Hydrogen i</span><span>f only 12% of that is used for fusion, then (1.52x10^30kg)*(0.12) = 1.82x10^9kg</span>
