Power can be calculate through the equation,
                        Power = Force x velocity

It should be noted that velocity is calculated by dividing displacement by time. Thus, from the given in this item we can calculate for the power. 
                       Power = (120 lb) x (12 ft/9 s)
                         <em> </em><span><em>Power   = 160 lb.ft/s</em></span>

find the average velocity of a bicycle that starts 100km south and is 120km south of town after 0.4 hours​
dusya [7]

Answer:

The average velocity is 50 km/h south

Explanation:

The average velocity of an object is its total displacement divided by

the total time taken.

That means it is the rate at which an object changes its position from

one place to another.

Average velocity is a vector quantity.

The SI unit is meters per second.

A bicycle that starts 100 km south and is 120 km south of town after

0.4 hour​.

The displacement = 120 - 100 = 20 km south

The time = 0.4 hour

The average velocity = \frac{D}{T}, where D is the displacement

and t is the time

The average velocity of the bicycle = \frac{20}{0.4}=50 km/h

<em>The average velocity is 50 km/h south</em>

If you want it in meter per second, change the kilometer to meter

and change the hour to seconds

1 km = 1000 m

1 hour = 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds

The average velocity of the bicycle = \frac{50(1000)}{3600}=13.89 m/s south

calcula la potencia por hora de un radiador, sabiendo que esta conectado a un contacto común 110 v. y requiere 20 Amp.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

calculate the power per hour of a radiator, knowing that it is connected to a common 110 v contact. and requires 20 Amp.

Answer:

2.2kWh

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential difference  = 110v

Current  = 20A

Unknown:

Power  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

        Power  = IV

 Power  = 110 x 20  = 2200W

  This is therefore 2.2kW

 Power per hour  = 2.2kWh

The concept of critical density is just like the idea of escape velocity for a projectile launched from the earth. An object lau
ikadub [295]

Answer:

v = √ 2 G M/ R_{e}

Explanation:

To find the escape velocity we can use the concept of mechanical energy, where the initial point is the surface of the earth and the end point is at the maximum distance from the projectile to the Earth.

Initial

        Em₀ = K + U₀

Final

        Em_{f} =  U_{f}

The kinetic energy is k = ½ m v²

The gravitational potential energy is U = - G m M / r

r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth

How energy is conserved

       Em₀ =  Em_{f}

       ½ mv² - GmM / R_{e} = -GmM / r

       v² = 2 G M (1 /  R_{e} – 1 / r)

       v = √ 2GM (1 / R_{e} – 1 / r)

The escape velocity is that necessary to take the rocket to an infinite distance (r = ∞), whereby 1 /∞ = 0

        v = √ 2GM /  R_{e}

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 12 m

v₀ = 6 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: t

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

12 m = ½ (0 m/s + 6 m/s) t

t = 4 s

A 100 mH inductor whose windings have a resistance of 6.0 Ω is connected across a 12 Vbattery having an internal resistance of 3
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The store energy in the inductor is 0.088 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Inductor = 100 mH

Resistance = 6.0 Ω

Voltage = 12 V

Internal resistance = 3.0 Ω

We need to calculate the current

Using ohm's law

V = IR

I=\dfrac{V}{R+r}

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{12}{6.0+3.0}

I=1.33\ A

We need to calculate the store energy in the inductor

U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times100\times10^{-3}\times(1.33)^2

U=0.088\ J

Hence, The store energy in the inductor is 0.088 J
