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

If the distance between slits on a diffraction grating is 0.50 mm and one of the angles of diffraction is 0.25°, how large is th

Trava [24]

Answer:

- path differnce = 2.18*10^-6

- 1538 lines

Explanation:

- The path difference for the waves that produce the pattern of diffraction, is given by the following formula:

$path\ difference\ = dsin\theta$ (1)

d: separation between slits = 0.50mm = 0.50*10^-3 m

θ: angle of a diffraction = 0.25°

Then, the path difference is:

$path\ difference\ =(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin(0.25\°)=2.18*10^{-6}m$

- The maximum number of bright lines are calculated by using the following formula:

$m\lambda = dsin\theta$ (2)

m: order of the bright

λ: wavelength = 650nm

The maximum bright is calculated for an angle of 90°:

$m=\frac{(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin90\°}{650*10^{-9}m} \approx 769$

The maxium number of bright lines are twice the previous result, that is, 1538 lines

An electric motor has an effective resistance of 29. 4 ω and an inductive reactance of 42. 6 ω. When working under load. the rms voltage across the alternating source is 442 v. The rms current will be 8.54 A

AC stands for “Alternating Current,” meaning voltage or current that changes polarity or direction, respectively, over time. AC electromechanical generators, known as alternators, are of simpler construction than DC electromechanical generators.

RMS or root mean square current/voltage of the alternating current/voltage represents the D.C current/voltage that dissipates the same amount of power as the average power dissipated by the alternating current/voltage. For sinusoidal oscillations, the RMS value equals peak value divided by the square root of 2.

I (RMS) = RMS voltage / $\sqrt{R^{2}+ X_{L} { ^{2} }$

= 442 / $\sqrt{29.4^{2} + 42.6^{2} }$

= 442 / $\sqrt{864.36 + 1814.76}$

= 442 / $\sqrt{2679.12}$

= 8.54 A

A particular heat engine has a mechanical power output of 4.00 kW and an efficiency of 26.0%. The engine expels 8.55 103 J of ex

Ivahew [28]

To develop the problem we will start by finding the energy taken by each cycle through the efficiency of the motor and the exhausted energy. Later the work will be found for the conservation of energy in which this is equivalent to the difference between the two calculated energy values. Finally the estimated time will be calculated with the work and the power given,

$\text{Efficiency of the heat engine} = \eta = 26\% = 0.26$

$\text{Energy taken in by the heat engine during each cycle} = Q_h$

$\text{Energy exhausted by the heat engine in each cycle} = Q_c = 8.55*10^3 J$

$\eta = 1 - \frac{Q_{c}}{Q_{h}}$

$0.26 = 1 - \frac{8.55\ast 10^{3}}{Q_{h}}$

$\frac{8.55* 10^{3}}{Q_{h}} = 0.74$

$Q_h = \frac{8.55*10^3}{0.74}$

$Q_h = 11.554*10^3J$

PART A)

Work done by the heat engine in each cycle = W

$W = Q_h-Q_c$

$W = 11.554*10^3J-8.55*10^3J$

$W = 3004J$

According to the value given we have that,

$P = 4.0kW$

$P = 4000W$

Power is defined as the variation of energy as a function of time therefore,

$P = \frac{W}{t}$

$4000W = \frac{3004J}{t}$

$t = \frac{3004}{4000}$

$t = 0.75s$

Therefore the interval for each cycle is 0.75s

Give reason for the following observation

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: The smell of hot sizzling food reaches you several metres away, but to get the smell from cold food you have to go close because the kinetic energy of the particles of matter increases with the increase in temperature. In cold foods, kinetic energy is less while in hot foods, kinetic energy is more

The unknown quantities to be determined are (a) the capacitive reactance, (b) the maximum and the rms voltages from the source,

Digiron [165]

The frequency f of the AC source is determined as 0.446 Xc.

<h3>Frequency of the AC source</h3>

The frequency of the AC source is calculated as follows;

Xc ≡ 1/2fC

where;

Xc is the capacitive reactance
f is frequency
C is capacitance

fC = 2Xc

f = 2Xc / C

f = (2Xc)/4.48

f = 0.446 Xc

Thus, the frequency f of the AC source is determined as 0.446 Xc.
