Four weightlifters (A-D) enter a competition. The mass, distance, and time of their lifts are shown in the table.
siniylev [52]

Let Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd be the powers delivered by weightlifters A, B, C, and D, respectively.

Use this equation to determine each power value:

P = W÷Δt

P is the power, W is the work done by the weightlifter, and Δt is the elapsed time.

A) Determining Pa:

Pa = W÷Δt

The weightlifter does work to lift the weight up a certain distance. Therefore the work done is equal to the weight's gain in gravitational potential energy. The equation for gravitational PE is

PE = mgh

PE is the potential energy, m is the mass of the weight, g is the acceleration of objects due to earth's gravity, and h is the distance the weight was lifted.

We can equate W = PE = mgh, therefore we can make the following substitution:

Pa = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 100.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 2.25m

Δt = 0.151s

Plug in the values and solve for Pa

Pa = 100.0×9.81×2.25÷0.151

<u>Pa = 14600W</u> (watt is the SI derived unit of power)

B) Determining Pb:

Let us use our new equation derived in part A to solve for Pb:

Pb = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 150.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.76m

Δt = 0.052s

Plug in the values and solve for Pb

Pb = 150.0×9.81×1.76÷0.052

<u>Pb = 49800W</u>

C) Determining Pc:

Pc = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 200.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.50m

Δt = 0.217s

Plug in the values and solve for Pc

Pc = 200.0×9.81×1.50÷0.217

<u>Pc = 13600W</u>

D) Determining Pd:

Pd = mgh÷Δt

Given values:

m = 250.0kg

g = 9.81m/s²

h = 1.25m

Δt = 0.206s

Plug in the values and solve for Pd

Pd = 250.0×9.81×1.25÷0.206

<u>Pd = 14900W</u>

Compare the following power values:

Pa = 14600W, Pb = 49800W, Pc = 13600W, Pd = 14900W

Pc is the lowest value.

Therefore, weightlifter C delivers the least power.

Suppose that a planet were discovered between the sun and Mercury, with a circular orbit of radius equal to 2/3 of the average o
Musya8 [376]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A planet were discovered between the sun and Mercury, with a circular orbit of radius equal to 2/3 of the average orbit radius of Mercury.

Mass of the Sun, M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

Radius of Mercury's orbit, r=5.79\times 10^{10}\ m

Radius of discovered planet, R=\dfrac{2}{3}r

R=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 5.79\times 10^{10}\ m=3.86\times 10^{10}\ m

Let T is the orbital period of such a planet. Using Kepler's third law of planetary motion as :

T^2\propto R^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2R^3}{GM}

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (3.86\times 10^{10})^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}

T=\sqrt{1.71\times 10^{13}}

T = 4135214.625 s

or

T = 47.86 days

So, the orbital period of such a planet is 47.86 days. Hence, this is the required solution.

Establishing a potential difference The deflection plates in an oscilloscope are 10 cm by 2 cm with a gap distance of 1 mm. A 10
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

1.62\times 10^{-8}\ \text{s}

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Vacuum permittivity = 8.854\times 10^{-12}\ \text{F/m}

A = Area = 10\times 2\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m}^2

d = Distance between plates = 1 mm

V_c = Changed voltage = 60 V

V = Initial voltage = 100 V

R = Resistance = 1000\ \Omega

Capacitance is given by

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_0A}{d}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 10\times 2\times 10^{-4}}{1\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow C=1.7708\times 10^{-11}\ \text{F}

We have the relation

V_c=V(1-e^{-\dfrac{t}{CR}})\\\Rightarrow e^{-\dfrac{t}{CR}}=1-\dfrac{V_c}{V}\\\Rightarrow -\dfrac{t}{CR}=\ln (1-\dfrac{V_c}{V})\\\Rightarrow t=-CR\ln (1-\dfrac{V_c}{V})\\\Rightarrow t=-1.7708\times 10^{-11}\times 1000\ln(1-\dfrac{60}{100})\\\Rightarrow t=1.62\times 10^{-8}\ \text{s}

The time taken for the potential difference to reach the required level is 1.62\times 10^{-8}\ \text{s}.
