If an object has a mass of 1417g and it is moved 47 meters in 90 seconds, how much power was used?
astraxan [27]

Mass of the object is given as

m = 1417 g = 1.417 kg

now the speed of object is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}

here we know that

d = 47 m

t = 90 s

now we will have

v = \frac{47}{90} = 0.52 m/s

now we will have kinetic energy of the object as

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}(1.417)(0.52)^2

KE = 0.19 J

now the power is defined as rate of energy

so here we can find power as

P = \frac{KE}{t}

P = \frac{0.19}{90} = 2.14\times 10^{-3} W

so above is the power used for the object

Based on the principles of convection, conduction and thermal radiation, which scenario below is most similar to the following s
Ksivusya [100]

The situation (heat going through the ceiling) describes
conduction ...
heat going from one place to another by
soaking through some material.

A).  This is the one.  Heat goes from from the marshmallow
to your hand by soaking through the wire.   This is conduction too.

B).  No.  The heat in the room goes from the floor to the ceiling
because the warm air rises and carries it there.  This is convection.

C).  No.  There's nothing for the heat to soak through between
the sun and the roof, and nothing that can move from the sun
to the roof and bring the heat with it.  This is radiation.

D).  No.  Cold water sinks from the surface to the bottom because
warm water rose from the bottom to the surface, taking heat with it. 
This is convection.

How much work is done by 0.070 m3 of gas, when the volume remains constant with pressure of 63 x 105 Pa?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

W = 0 J

Explanation:

The amount of work done by gas at constant pressure is given by the following formula:

W = P\Delta V

where,

W = Work done by the gas

P = Pressure of the gas

ΔV = Change in the volume of the gas

Since the volume of the gas is constant. Therefore, there is no change in the volume of the gas:

W = P(0\ m^3)\\

<u>W = 0 J</u>

An athlete is running a 400m race around a 400m track. On the backstretch the athlete's velocity is 8m/s but he is running into
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

33 N

Explanation:

v = Velocity of fluid = 8+2 = 10 m/s

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.2 kg/m³

C = Coefficient of drag = 1.1

A = Cross sectional area = 0.5 m²

Drag force is given by

F=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 1.1\times 0.5\times (8+2)^2\\\Rightarrow F=33\ N

The drag force on the athlete is 33 N
