Answer:

19620 Watt = 19.62 kWatt

Explanation:

Power output (P) is work (W) divided by time (t): P = W/t

A work (W) is a product of a force (F) and a distance (d): W = F · d

Since the force is a product of mass and acceleration: F = m · a

then work would be: W = m · a · h

P = W/t 

W = m · a · h

P = m · a · h / t

We have:

P = ?

m = 1000 kg

a = 9.81 m/s²  (gravitational acceleration on the Earth)

h = 10 m

t = 5s

P = m · a · h / t = 1000 kg  · 9.81 m/s²  · 10 m / 5 s = 19620 Watt = 19.62 kWatt

Why is it necessary for cells to be so small​
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Cells are small because they need to keep a surface area to volume ratio that allows for adequate intake of nutrients while being able to excrete the cells waste.

What is the weight, in pounds, of a 185-kg object on jupiter? express the weight numerically in pounds?
strojnjashka [21]

Befroe showing a numercial answer, It is necessary to clarify that pounds is not a unit of weight. Pounds is a unit of mass.


Mass is a property of matter which indicates the amount of matter (atoms of certain kind) that the object has. The mass of an object does not change whenever the object changes of environment. It is the same in water, on the air, on Jupiter, the Earth, Venus, the Moon. Any where.


On the other hand, weight is the product of mass times the acceleration of gravity. Therefore, weight is different from mass and it changes depending on the place.


To find the mass in pounds of a 185 kg object, you have to make a conversion of units.


The conversion factor is 1 kg = 2.2046 pounds ⇒ 1 = 2.2046 pounds / kg.


Therefore, 185 kg = 185 kg × 2.2046 pounds / kg = 407.851 pounds = 407.851 lb ← this is the mass in pounds.


To find the weight you had to search for the gravitational acceleration in Jupiter and calcuate it with the formula weight = mass × acceleration of gravity.


You find the value for acceleration of gravity in Jupiter  in internet as 24.79 m/s².


Weight = 185 kg × 24.79 /s² = 4,586 kg × m/ s² = 4,586 N.


There is a force unit in disuse called kiloponds. One kilopond equals 9.8 N. Hence, you can convert the weight 4,586 N to kiloponds in this way:


4,586 N × 1 kilopond / 9.8 N ≈ 468 kiloponds or 468,000 ponds ← weight

You are raising up a big bucket of water from a 25.9 m deep well. The combined mass of the water and the bucket is 13.9 kg. The
Vinil7 [7]

The work done is 8427 J while the energy expended is  80.25 W.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

Work done is defined as the product of the force and the distance. We know that the work done in a gravitational field is given as;

W = mgh

Total mass of the water bucket and chain = 13.9 kg +  19.3 kg = 33.2Kg

Distance covered =  25.9 m

W = 33.2Kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 25.9 m

W = 8427 J

Recall that the work done = Energy expended

Power = Energy expended/ Time

Power = 8427 J/ 1.75 * 60 seconds

Power = 80.25 W
