Answer:

43,555 W

Explanation:

Since the speed is constant, this means that the force applied to lift the equipment is equal to the weight of the equipment. So we can write:

$F=mg$

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

So,

$F=(1000)(9.8)=9800 N$

Then the work done in lifting the equipment is:

$W=Fd$

where

d = 200 m is the displacement of the equpment

Substituting,

$W=(9800)(200)=1.96\cdot 10^6 J$

Finally, the power used to lift the equipment is the ratio between the work done and time taken:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

$W=1.96\cdot 10^6 J$

t = 45 s is the time taken

Solving,

$P=\frac{1.96\cdot 10^6}{45}=43,555 W$

What are the names of the 2 charged particles in an atom and what are their charges

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Protons and electrons

Explanation:

The atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The physical and chemical characteristics of an atom are determined by the number of these particle composition.
The protons present in the center of an atom called the nucleus is positively charged.
The neutrons are also located in the nucleus of an atom with no charge.
The electrons has a negative charge and it is placed around the nucleus having different shells and quantum state.
The charges of the protons and electrons are denoted by +q and -q. The quantization of these charges are +1, +2, ... and -1, -2, .... etc.

A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 34 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 1.0 cm2 area is 44 m fr

rjkz [21]

Answer:

I = 1.4 mW/m²

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

$I = \frac{P}{A}$

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}$

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

$I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}$

I = 0.0013975 W/m²

≈ I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value. It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;

β $= 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}$ dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

∴ β $= 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}$

β $= 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})$

β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.

Q3. You throw a ball into the air, it reaches a certain height and then comes back to you.

Grace [21]

The If a car is going round a curve , there is an acceleration because the direction of the velocity changes.

<h3>What is the direction of the velocity?</h3>

Now we know that if you throw the ball upwards, the motion is in opposite direction to gravity thus the ball is experiencing deceleration and the speed decreases. The velocity decreases and the acceleration is negative.

If the ball is coming down, then the ball is accelerated thus it speeds up and the direction of the acceleration is positive.

If a car is going round a curve, the vehicle is accelerating because the direction of the velocity changes even if its amount remains constant.

When a board is moving down a hill at 2 ms-1, it is experiencing an acceleration because the motion is in the same direction as gravity.

If a car is coming to a stop at a point, it experiences a deceleration and not an acceleration since the change of velocity with time is negative as the car comes to rest.

Which explains why conduction is unlikely when ice is placed on a freezer shelf? There is no direct contact. The ice is too cold

Ghella [55]

Answer: The ice and shel are at the same temperature.

Explanation: Conduction happens when you have two objects at different temperatures touching each other, in this case, the temperature flows from the hot object to the cold one, until the equilibrium is reached (this means that both objects are at the same temperature). So, in order to conduction to happen, we need a difference in temperature and direct contact. So there are two options of the given that can be the answer: "There is no direct contact" In the sentence says that "the ice is placed on the freezer shelf", so we have direct contact between both objects. "The ice and shelf are at the same temperature" Here both objects are inside of the freezer, so we can expect that both of them are at the same temperature, hence, there is no conduction.
