Complete question is;
Shoveling snow can be extremely taxing since the arms have such a low efficiency in this activity. Suppose a person shoveling a sidewalk metabolizes food at the rate of 800 W. (The efficiency of a person shoveling is 3%.)
(a) What is her useful power output? (b) How long will it take her to lift 3000 kg of snow 1.20 m? (This could be the amount of heavy snow on 20 m of footpath.) (c) How much waste heat transfer in kilojoules will she generate in the process?
Answer:
A) P_out = 24 W
B) t = 1470 s
C) Q = 1140.72 KJ
Explanation:
We are given;
Input Power; P_in = 800 W
Efficiency; η = 3% = 0.03
A) Formula for efficiency is;
η = P_out/P_in
Making P_out the subject, we have;
P_out = η•P_in
P_out = 0.03 × 800
P_out = 24 W
B) We know that;
Power = work done/time taken
Thus;
P_out = mgh/t
We are given;
m = 3000 kg
h = 1.20 m
Thus, time is;
t = (3000 × 9.8 × 1.2)/24
t = 1470 s
C) amount of heat wasted is calculated from;
Q = (P_in - P_out)t
Q = (800 - 24) × 1470
Q = 1,140,720 J
Q = 1140.72 KJ
Answer:
+ 5 m/s
Explanation:
change in displacement = ΔX=final position - initial position
ΔX = 0-(-5) =0+5 =+ 5 m
average velocity = ΔX/t
= +5/1
= + 5 m/s
positive sign shows that ball rolls towards right
Answer:
v2 = 27.3m/s
Explanation:
Assuming forward as positive.
Mass = m1 = 64kg
Let v be the common velocity of the student and the skateboard.
mass of skateboard = m2 = 5.94kg
v = 1.4m/s
Since the skateboard and the student are initially moving together at the same velocity their momentum together is
(m1 + m2)v
Let the final velocity of the student be v1 and the final velocity of the skateboard be v2
v1 = – 1.0m/s (falls backwards that's why the velocity is negative since we are assuming forward as positive)
Then from conservation of momentum, momentum before is equal to momentum after.
(m1 + m2)v = m1v1 + m2v2
m2v2= (m1 + m2)v – m1v1
v2 = ( (m1 + m2)v – m1v1)/m2
v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 – 64×(-1.0))/5.94
v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 + 64×1.0)/5.94
v2 = 27.3m/s
Answer:
Kinda? Depends what the question is fully asking
Explanation:
Acceleration is a change in velocity. So I guess if the velocity of something is -2 m/s and its positively accelerating at a value of +1 m/s, then that means every second its velocity changes by +1m/s.
So that -2 m/s thing after one second will be going -1 m/s.
After another second it'll be going 0 m/s.
After another itll be going +1 m/s and so on.
So at one point for a brief moment, it can have an acceleration but be at 0 m/s velocity.
Answer: The speed at the first quarter checkpoint is 0.74 m/s. The speed at the second quarter checkpoint is 1.40 m/s. The speed at the third quarter checkpoint is 1.61 m/s. The speed at the finish line is 1.89 m/s.
