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

Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence
sineoko [7]

Answer:

From smallest ratio to the largest ratio:

Coasting Universe - Critical Universe - Recollapsing Universe(From left to right)

Explanation:

The coasting universe is one that expands at a constant rate given by the Hubble constant throughout all of cosmic time. It has a ratio of actual density to critical density that is less than 1

The critical universe is one that is at balance with no expansion .I.e. the actual density and the critical density are equal, which makes the ratio of actual density to critical density to be equal to 1

Recollapsing Universe: The expansion of the universe reverses in the future and the universe eventually recollapses. The recollapsing universe has the ratio of the actual density to the critical density to be greater than 1

Why is radiation fog more likely near the center of an anticyclone than near the center of a cyclone?
Zigmanuir [339]
Radiation fog is the fog that is formed when the heat absorbed the Earth's surface is released into the atmosphere producing fog. This only occurs when the air is clear and calm. In the center of an anticyclone, the conditions of the air are clear and calm which is favorable for the formation of radiation fog. The center of cyclones, on the other hand, is turbulent and cloudy which prevents the formation of radiation fogs.

Can a plane mirror produce a real image? Explain.
Komok [63]
I don't think so, because in order to produce an image, you need a surface behind the mirror. The light will hit the mirror, then it will bounce it back in your eyes and you see the image.

We can model the human back as a pivoted rod?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

So the answer is yes, we can the back be shaped like a spinning rod

spinal column that is approximated by a long and narrow rod,

Explanation:

The bone system of the body is very well modeled in physics, the back has a spinal column that is approximated by a long and narrow rod, this rod is fixed in the lower part to the coccyx and has a weight in the upper part (head), this rod has longitudinal vertical movement and twisting movement around the lower part of the bar.

So the answer is yes, we can the back be shaped like a spinning rod
