Answer:

The power output of the first motor is,  P = 2.0 x 10⁴ watts

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the building, h = 10 m

The mass of the elevator, m = 1000 kg

The time duration of the motor to do this work, t = 5.0 s

The force acting on the elevator,

                                  F = m x g

                                    = 1000 x 9.8

                                     = 9800 N

The work done by the elevator,

                                W = F  x h

                                     = 9800 x 10

                                     = 98000 J

The power output of the first motor,

                                P = W / t

                                   = 98000 / 5

                                   = 19600 watts

                                   = 1.96 x 10⁴ watts

Hence, the power output of the first motor is, P = 2.0 x 10⁴ watts

A 0.40-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle having a radius of 1.8 m. At an instant when the stri
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as

T - mg cos40 = F_c

T - (0.40\times 9.8)cos40 = \frac{mv^2}{L}

T = 3 + \frac{0.40\times 5^2}{1.8}

T = 3 + 5.55

T = 8.55 N

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

2.42hours

Explanation:

To calculate the time taken to boil the cup of water, we will use the formula

Q = It where

Q is the total energy required to boil the water = 100KJ = 100,000Joules

I is the current = 11.5A

t is the time taken to boil the water

t = Q/I

t = 100,000/11.5

t = 8695.65seconds

t = 2.42hours

Based on the graph, how would you describe the net forces acting on the moving
ladessa [460]

Given the velocity-time graph of an object.

The slope of a velocity-time graph gives the acceleration acting on the object.

From the graph, we can see that the slope of the graph is zero. That is, the velocity of the object is constant and hence the net acceleration acting on the object is zero.

From Newton's second law, the net force acting on an object is given by the product of the mass of the object and its velocity. Therefore when the acceleration of the object is zero, the net force on the object is also zero.

Therefore the net force acting on the given object is zero. Hence, the correct answer is option A.

heat engine operating between 100 °C and 700 °C has an efficiency equal to 40% of the maximum theoretical efficiency. How much e
ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

Theoretical efficiency = T₁ - T₂ / T₁ where T₁ and T₂ is absolute temperature of hot and cold end of the heat engine.

= 600 / (273 + 700 )

= 600 / 973

= .6166

operating efficiency = 40% of .6166

= .4 x .6166

= .2466 = 24.66 %

efficiency = work output / heat input

= 5000 / heat input = .2466

heat input = 5000 / .2466

= 20275.75 J .

HEAT EXTRACED = 20275.75 J.
