Answer:

12V

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Resistance  = 12ohms

Heat released = 144J

Time taken = 12s

Unknown:

Voltage at the ends of the conductors = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must first determine the power expended by the circuit.

Power is the rate at which work is done;

                P  = \frac{work done }{time}

                    = \frac{144}{12}

                    = 12W

Electrical power is given as;

             P  = IV  = \frac{V^{2} }{R}

            Since V is the unknown, we  solve for it;

          12  = \frac{V^{2} }{12}

           V  = 12V

A factory worker pushes a 32.0 kg crate a distance of 7.0 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizontally on
g100num [7]

Answer:

(a) 81.54 N

(b) 570.75 J

(c) - 570.75 J

(d) 0 J, 0 J

(e) 0 J  

Explanation:

mass of crate, m = 32 kg

distance, s = 7 m

coefficient of friction = 0.26

(a) As it is moving with constant velocity so the force applied is equal to the friction force.

F = 0.26 x m x g = 0.26 x 32 x 9.8 = 81.54 N

(b) The work done on the crate

W = F x s = 81.54 x 7 = 570.75 J

(c) Work done by the friction

W' = - W = - 570.75 J

(d) Work done by the normal force

W'' = m g cos 90 = 0 J

Work done by the gravity

Wg = m g cos 90 = 0 J

(e) The total work done is

Wnet = W + W' + W'' + Wg = 570.75 - 570.75 + 0 = 0 J

Birdman is flying horizontally at a
den301095 [7]

Answer:

68 m

Explanation:

Given that the horizontal velocity of the birdman = 17 m/s and

the height, h= 78 m.

The gravitational force is acting in the downward direction, so it will not change the horizontal speed.

The horizontal speed will remains be constant and will be equal to the initial horizontal speed of the turd.

Initially, the turd was also flying horizontally with the birdman, so the initial velocity of the turd is the same as the horizontal velocity of the birdman, i.e In the horizontal direction, u_0=17 m/s.

In the vertical direction, u = 0,

The distance to be traveled, in the direction of application of force, is equals to the height of the turd, i.e

s= 78 m

Let t be the time taken to cover a distance of 78 m.

Now, applying the equation of motion in the vertical direction,

s=ut+\frac 12 at^2

where u is the initial velocity and a is the acceleration due to gravity in the direction of displacement,s.

Here, a=g=9.81 m/s^2, so

78=0\times t +\frac 12 (9.81)t^2

\Rightarrow t^2=(78\times2)/9.81

\Rightarrow t = 4 seconds.

Hence, the time taken to reach the ground is 4 seconds.

As the horizontal speed, u_0=17 m/s, is constant throughout the journey, so

the horizontal distance covered by turd

= u\times t

= 17 \times 4 = 68 m.

So, the distance of landing from the start of the field is 68 m as the birdman releases a turd directly  above the start of the field.

Hence, the robot must hold the bucket at a distance of 68 m from the start of the field.

If Vector A is (3, 0) and Vector B is (-3, 3), what is the resultant?
Archy [21]

Answer:resultant vector R = (0, 3)

Explanation: vector A = (3, 0)

vector B =(-3, 3)

Vectors are added such that those in same directions are added together. The resultant vector R is the given by R = (3-3, 0+3)

= (0, 3)

A freight train rolls along a track with considerable momentum. If it were to roll at the same speed but had twice as much mass,
fomenos

Answer:

The momentum would be doubled

Explanation:

The magnitude of the momentum of the freight train is given by:

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the train

v is its speed

In this problem, we have that the speed of the train is unchanged, while the mass of the train is doubled:

m'=2m

therefore, the new momentum is

p'=m'v=(2m)v=2(mv)=2p

so, the momentum has also doubled.

What is the speed of a car that traveled 500 meter in 30 seconds?
GenaCL600 [577]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find speed, you need to remember the formula:

Speed = distance ÷ time

So plug the given values in:

500 ÷ 30 = 16.66

<h3>So the speed is 16.66m/s (metres per second)</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
