A body builder loads a bar with 550 newtons (~125 pounds) of weight and pushes the bar over her head 10 times. Each time she lif

ts the weight 0.5 meters. How much work did she do? 275 Joules. If she lifts the bar 10 times in 20 seconds, how much power did she use?

Work = (force) x (distance)

 (550 newtons) x (0.5 meter) = 275 joules each lift .

 (275 joules/lift) x (10 lifts)  =  2,750 joules of work all together.


Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)

           = (2,750 joules) / (20 seconds)

           =    137.5 watts .        (about 0.18 horsepower)

A car is traveling at 70 km/h. It then uniformly decelerates to a complete stop in 12 s. Find its acceleration ( in m/s2 ).
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be -1.620m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the car is 70 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So 70km/hr=70\times \frac{1000m}{3600sec}=19.444m/sec

It is given that car stops in 12 sec

So final speed of the car v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 12 sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So 0=19.444+a\times 12

a=\frac{-19.444}{12}=-1.620m/sec^2 ( negative sign indicates that speed of the car will constantly decrease )

Why do the planets appear in different locations in the night sky while the pattern of stars in a constellation stays the same?
Goshia [24]
I'm sure you've noticed that an airplane high in the sky, far away
from you, looks like it's moving very slowly.  At the same time,
somebody passing you on a skateboard whizzes past you at
high speed.  The farther away something is from you, the slower
it appears to move.

The nearest star outside the solar system is almost 32 thousand times
as far away from us as the farthest visible planet (Saturn) is, and all of the
other stars are farther than that. 

That's why you have to wait a few thousand years before you notice
that the shape of a constellation has changed.

To put it a slightly different way . . . Everything is in motion.  The motion is
more noticeable for nearby things, and less noticeable for farther-away things. 
Objects within our solar system are the only ones near enough so that a human
lifetime is a long enough period in which to notice the change in their position.
Even Pluto moves less then 1.5° against the 'background' stars in a whole year.

This all makes me feel small.  How about you ?

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Electron cloud

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atom is made up of two parts ; that is the nucleus and the electron cloud. The nucleus contain subatomic particles; protons and neutrons, while the electron cloud contains the electrons.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The electron cloud is the largest part of the atom and is mostly an empty space. Most of an atom is a cloud of electrons surrounding a space called the nucleus with tiny protons and neutrons.</u></em>

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.59 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Tangential speed=5.4 m/s

Radial acceleration=88.6m/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular speed=2.59 rev/s

We know that

1 revolution=2\pi rad

2.59 rev=2\pi\times 2.59=5.18\pi=5.18\times 3.14=16.27 rad/s

By using \pi=3.14

Angular velocity=\omega=16.27rad/s

Distance from axis=r=0.329 m

Tangential speed=r\omega=16.27\times 0.329=5.4m/s

Radial acceleration=\frac{v^2}{r}

Radial acceleration=\frac{(5.4)^2}{0.329}=88.6m/s^2
