Answer:

The efficiency of the ramp is, Eff = 6.63 %

Explanation:

Given,

The work done by the person pushing the furniture up the ramp is, W₁ = 1240 J

The work done by the ramp is, W₀ = 822 J

The efficiency of the ramp is given by the formula,

                                 <em> Eff = ( W₀ / W₁ ) x 100%</em>

                                        = ( 822 / 12400 ) x 100%

                                        = 6.63 %

Hence, the efficiency of the ramp is, Eff = 6.63 %

A 3.0-A current is maintained in a simple circuit that consists of a resistor between the terminals of an ideal battery. If the
harina [27]

Answer:

R=2.78\ \Omega

Explanation:

Given that,

The current flowing in the circuit, I = 3 A

The power of the battery, P = 25 W

We need to find the resistance of the battery. We know that the power of the battery is given by the formula as follows :

P=I^2R

Put all the values to find R.

R=\dfrac{P}{I^2}\\\\R=\dfrac{25}{(3)^2}\\\\R=2.78\ \Omega

So, the resistance is equal to 2.78\ \Omega.

On a very muddy football field, a 110kg linebacker tackles an 85kg halfback. Immediately before the collision, the linebacker is
Alchen [17]
<span>Using conservation of energy and momentum you can solve this question. M_l = mass of linebacker
M_ h = mass of halfback
V_l = velocity of linebacker
V_h = velocity of halfback

So for conservation of momentum,
rho = mv

M_l x V_li + M_h x V_hi = M_l x V_lf + M_h x V_hf

For conservation of energy (kinetic)
E_k = 1/2mv^2/ 1/2mV_li^2 + 1/2mV_{hi}^2 = 1/2mV_{lf}^2 + 1/2mV_{hf}^2

Where i and h stand for initial and final values.
We are already told the masses, \[M_l = 110kg\] \[M_h = 85kg\] and the final velocities \[V_{fi} = 8.5ms^{-1}\] and \[V_{ih} = 7.2ms^{-1} </span>
