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
Mars2501 [29]

The total work done is  5980 Joules and the power expended is 57 Watts.

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

The work done is the work done in the gravitational field as the bucket is raised up Thus work required to remove the bucket Wb;

Wb = 13.9 kg * 25.9 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3530 Joules

Height of the center of mass of chain = 25.9 / 2 = 12.95 m  

Work done by the chain Wc;

Wc = 12.95 * 19.3 * 9.8 = 2450 Joules  

Total work = 3530 + 2450 = 5980 Joules

Power expended = W / t = 5980 J / 105 sec = 57 J/s = 57 Watts

Why is thermal energy from the Sun transferred to Earth through electromagnetic waves instead of any other type of thermal energ
liq [111]

Answer:

Because electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space

Explanation:

The energy that is emitted from the sun is transferred to the earth in the form of radioactive waves. These waves are originated due to the vibration between the electric and magnetic fields. As this energy reaches the earth, it warms the earth's atmosphere, resulting in the transfer of heat energy in three possible ways namely the conduction, convection, and radiation.

This electromagnetic waves do not require any matter for the transmission of energy, and can easily travel in empty space from the core of the sun to the earth and other nearby planets. Whereas other types of waves cannot travel in space, so it is transferred in the form of electromagnetic waves only.

If 270 watts of power is used in 42 seconds, how much work was done<br>​
navik [9.2K]

Answer: W = 11340J

Explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

So this is the Formula: Power = Work / Time.

<u>Step 1:</u><em><u> Find the Formula</u></em>

P = W / T

<em><u> </u></em>

<u>Step 2: </u><u><em>Make W the subject of the equation.</em></u>

W = PT

<u>Step 3:</u><u> </u><u><em>Given.</em></u>

P = 270 Watts, T = 42 seconds

<u>Step 4:</u><u><em> Substitute these values into equation 2 .</em></u>

W = 270(42)

<u>Step 5:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify.</em></u>

W = 11340J

The amount of work done was 11340.

~I hope I helped you! :)~

A train travels 8.81 m/s in a -51.0° direction.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.

<h3>Resultant velocity of the train</h3>

The resultant velocity of the train is calculated as follows;

R² = vi² + vf² - 2vivf cos(θ)

where;

  • θ is the angle between the velocity = (90 - 51) + 37 = 76⁰

R² = 8.81² + 9.66² - 2(8.81 x 9.66) cos(76)

R² = 129.75

R = √129.75

R = 11.39 m/s

<h3>Displacement of the train</h3>

Δx = vt

Δx = 11.39 m/s x 2.23 s

Δx = 25.4 m

Thus, the displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.

A commuter train passes a passenger platform at a constant speed of 40.4 m/s. The train horn is sounded at its characteristic fr
mihalych1998 [28]

(a) -83.6 Hz

Due to the Doppler effect, the frequency of the sound of the train horn appears shifted to the observer at rest, according to the formula:

f' = (\frac{v}{v\pm v_s})f

where

f' is the apparent frequency

v = 343 m/s is the speed of sound

v_s is the velocity of the source of the sound (positive if the source is moving away from the observer, negative if it is moving towards the observer)

f is the original frequency of the sound

Here we have

f = 350 Hz

When the train is approaching, we have

v_s = -40.4 m/s

So the frequency heard by the observer on the platform is

f' = (\frac{343 m/s}{343 m/s - 40.4 m/s})(350 Hz)=396.7 Hz

When the train has passed the platform, we have

v_s = +40.4 m/s

So the frequency heard by the observer on the platform is

f' = (\frac{343 m/s}{343 m/s + 40.4 m/s})(350 Hz)=313.1 Hz

Therefore the overall shift in frequency is

\Delta f = 313.1 Hz - 396.7 Hz = -83.6 Hz

And the negative sign means the frequency has decreased.

(b) 0.865 m

The wavelength and the frequency of a wave are related by the equation

v=\lambda f

where

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

When the train is approaching the platform, we have

v = 343 m/s (speed of sound)

f = f' = 396.7 Hz (apparent frequency)

Therefore the wavelength detected by a person on the platform is

\lambda' = \frac{v}{f'}=\frac{343 m/s}{396.7 Hz}=0.865m
