Answer:

Correct answer: Third statement P = 4900 W

Explanation:

Given:

m = 500 kg the mass of the elevator

h = 10 m reached height after t = 10 seconds

P = ? power of the motor

The formula for the calculating power of the motor is:

P = W / t

since work is a measure of change in this case of potential energy then it is:

W = ΔEp = Ep - 0 = Ep

In this case we must take g = 9.81 m/s²

Ep = m g h = 500 · 9.81 · 10 = 49,050 W ≈ 49,000 W

Ep ≈ 49,000 W

P = Ep / t = 49,000 / 10 = 4,900 W

P =4,900 W

1. Why should you use scientific notation when writing big numbers?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.

Explanation:

Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.

Superman does an exhibition run at a track meet. When he runs the 200 m

Ber [7]

Answer:

6.32s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Length of track and distance covered = 200m

Acceleration = 10m/s²

Unknown:

Time taken to cover the track = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply one of the motion equations as shown below:

S = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ at²

S is the distance covered

t is the time taken

a the acceleration

u is the initial velocity

The initial velocity of Superman is 0;

So;

S = $\frac{1}{2}$ at²

200 = $\frac{1}{2}$ x 10 x t²

200 = 5t²

t² = 40

t = 6.32s

The space shuttle travels at a speed of about 7.6times10^3 m/s. The blink of an astronaut's eye lasts about 110 ms. How many foo

sveta [45]

Answer:

It covers distance of 9.15 football fields in the said time.

Explanation:

We know that

$Distance=Speed\times Time$

Thus distance covered in blinking of eye =

$Distance=7.6\times 10^{3}m/s\times 110\times 10^{-3}s\\\\Distance=836 meters$

Thus no of football fields= $\frac{936}{91.4}=9.15Fields$
