Answer:

4.2 m

Explanation:

Note: If energy is conserved, i.e no work is done against friction

Work input = work output.

Work output = Force output × distance,

Work input = force input × distance moved moved.

Therefore,

input force×distance moved = output force × distance moved........................Equation 1

Given: input force = 80 N, output force = 240 N, output distance = 1.4 m

Let input distance = d

Substitute into equation 1

80×d = 240×1.4

80d = 336

d = 336/80

d = 4.2 m.

Thus the rope around the pulley must be pulled 4.2 m

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 49.
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

1.1397 Nm

Explanation:

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth.

If the muscle generates a force

F =  49.5 N and r = 2.65 cm , then the torque is equal to rF

we see that r = 2.65 cm = 0.0265 m

therefore

torque = 0.0265 x 49.5

= 1.1397 Nm

An insulated beaker with negligible mass contains 0.250 kg of water at 75.0C. How many kilograms of ice at -20.0C must be droppe
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg

Explanation:

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water

Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C

To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.

Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C

Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg

Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m

Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J

543600 m = 36627.5

m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.

If a machine is doing 500 J of work with 75 watts of power, how long did it take to complete its task?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

time = 6.67secs

Explanation:

power = workdone( energy) / time

therefore :

Time = workdone / power

time = 500 / 75

time = 6.67secs
