A 50.0 kg woman climbs a flight of stairs 6.00 m high in 15.0 s. How much power does she use.

WITCHER [35]3 years ago

Her weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

Work = (weight) · (height) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²) · (6 m)

Power = (work) / (time) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²) · (6 m) / (15 s)

Power = (50 · 9.8 · 6 / 15) · (kg · m² / s³)

Power = 196 (kg · m / s²) · (m) / s

Power = 196 Newton-meter/second

<em>Power = 196 watts</em>

A cylindrical metal can is to have no lid. It is to have a volume of 125π in3. What height minimizes the amount of metal used?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches

What happens to the force between two charges when each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

F' = 64 F

Explanation:

The electric force between charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where

q₁ and q₂ are charges

r is the distance between charges

When  each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original magnitude such that,

q₁' = 2q₁, q₂' = 2q₂ and r' = (r/4)

New force,

F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}

Apply new values,

F'=\dfrac{k\times 2q_1\times 2q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{4})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{k\times 4q_1q_2}{\dfrac{r^2}{16}}\\\\=64\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\=64F

So, the new force becomes 64 times the initial force.

Car A starts in Sacramento at 11am. It travels along 400 mile route to Los Angeles at 60 mph. Car B starts from Los Angeles at n
damaskus [11]

Answer:

  • 38.89 miles

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

distance between Sacramento and los angles = 400 miles

speed of car A = 60 mph

start time of car A = 11 am

speed of car B = 75 mph

start time of car B = 12 pm

distance of Fresno from Los Angeles = 150 miles

  • To start off let's allow car A to travel for one hour (from 11 am to 12 pm), during which it would have covered a distance of 60 miles.
  • Now the time would be 12 pm and the distance between the two cars would be 400 - 60 (distance traveled by car A within 11 am to 12 pm) = 340 miles
  • From 12 pm to the time both cars will meet, the distance covered by car A + distance covered by car B would be equal to 340 miles. Therefore
  • Distance covered by car A = speed x time(t) = 60 x t = 60t
  • Distance covered by car B = speed x time(t) = 75 x t = 75t
  • 60t + 75t = 340 miles
  • 135t = 340
  • t = 2.51 hours
  • Recall that at their meeting point, the distance covered by car B = 75t = 75 x 2.62 = 188.89 miles
  • Since Fresno is 150 miles from Los Angeles, car B which is 188.89 miles from Los Angeles at their meeting point would be 188.89 - 150 = 38.89 miles from Fresno
  • 38.89 miles would also be the distance of car A from Fresno since that is their meeting point.

You fire a paintball from a paintball gun straight up into the air at 25.0 m/s. What is the ball velocity at the higher point th
iVinArrow [24]

Given :

You fire a paintball from a paintball gun straight up into the air at 25.0 m/s.

To Find :

What is the ball velocity at the higher point that the ball reaches.

Solution :

We know, when ball is moving upward acceleration due to gravity is applied downward.

So, the ball will decelerate and when ball reaches maximum height its velocity will become zero.

Therefore, ball velocity is 0 m/s at maximum height.

Hence, this is the required solution.
