Answer:

0.00016 kg

Explanation:  

Given:

Power = P = 1.2 × 10⁹ Watts

Power =  work done / Time

efficiency = 0.30

Input power = 1.2 × 10⁹ / 0.30 =  4  × 10⁹ W

Energy =  4  × 10⁹ x 60 x 60 = 1.44 x 10¹³ joules

E = m c² , where c is the speed of light and m is the mass.

⇒ mass = m = E / c²  = (1.44 x 10¹³) / (3 × 10⁸ )²

                                   = 0.00016 kg

What is the change in velocity of a 22-kg object that experiences a force of 15 N for
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Force = mass × acceleration

Acceleration:

{ \tt{15 = (22 \times a)}} \\ { \tt{a =  \frac{15}{22}  \:  {ms}^{ - 2} }}

From first Newton's equation of motion:

{ \bf{v = u + at}}

Change = v - u:

{ \tt{v - u = (a \times t)}} \\ { \tt{v - u = ( \frac{15}{22} \times 1.2) }} \\ { \tt{v - u = 0.82 \:  {ms}^{ - 2} }}

A football wide receiver rushes 16 m straight down the playing field in 2.9 s (in the positive direction). He is then hit and pu
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = 3.85m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the football wide receiver is his displacement per unit time.

Velocity v = (displacement d)/time t

v = d/t .....1

For each of the cases, equation 1 would be used to calculate the velocity.

a) v1 = d1/t1

d1= 16m

t1 = 2.9s

v1 = 16m/2.9s

v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = d2/t2

d2 = -2.5m

t2 = 1.65s

v2 = -2.5/1.65

v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = d3/t3

d3 = 24m

t3 = 5.2s

v3 = 24/5.2

v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = dt/tt

dt = 16m - 2.5m + 24m = 37.5m

tt = 2.9 + 1.65 + 5.2 = 9.75s

vt = 37.5/9.75

vt = 3.85m/s

Describe the parts of a lever. Include the following terms (fulcrum, resistance arm and effort arm).
yarga [219]

Answer:

hi here is your answer and this is a very important question.

Explanation:

A lever is a rigid bar with three parts: the fixed point around which the bar pivots is the fulcrum: the effort arm (in-lever arm) is the part of the lever to which force is applied; the resistance arm (out-lever arm) is the part that bears the load to be moved.
