Answer:

The answer to your question is Power = 24 Watts

Explanation:

Data

time = 3 s

Work = 72 J

Power = ?

Power is defined as the rate at which a work is done.

Formula

Power = Work / time

-Substitution

Power = 72/3

-Simplification

Power = 24 Watts

-Conclusion

The Power exerts by 72 J of work in 3 seconds is 24 watts.

A food processor draws 8.47 A of current when connected to a potential difference of 110 V.

Andreyy89

Answer:

27.95[kW*min]

Explanation:

We must remember that the power can be determined by the product of the current by the voltage.

$P=V*I$

where:

P = power [W]

V = voltage [volt]

I = amperage [Amp]

Now replacing:

$P=110*8.47\\P=931.7[W]$

Now the energy consumed can be obtained mediate the multiplication of the power by the amount of time in operation, we must obtain an amount in Kw per hour [kW-min]

$Energy = 931.7[kW]*30[days]*10[\frac{min}{1day} ]=279510[W*min]or 27.95[kW*min]$

What occurs when an object travels in a curved path

babymother [125]

When an object travels in a curved path, there must be a force acting toward the center of the circular trajectory. This force is called "centripetal force", and it cause an acceleration of the object, called "centripetal acceleration". The effect of this acceleration is that the velocity of the object changes in direction: however if the circular motion is uniform, the speed (=the magnitude of the velocity) does not change. In this case, the magnitude of the centripetal force is given by
 $F=m \frac{v^2}{r}$ 
where m is the mass of the object, v its velocity, and r the radius of the circular path.

A jewellery melts 500g of Silver to pour into a mould. Calculate how much energy was released as the silver solidified.

irga5000 [103]

When silver is poured into the mould the it will solidify

In this process the phase of the Silver block will change from liquid to solid.

This phase change will lead to release in heat and this heat is known as latent heat of fusion.

The formula to find the latent heat of fusion is given as

$Q = mL$

here given that

$m = mass = 500 g$

$L = 111 kJ/kg$

now we can find the heat released

$Q = 0.5 * 111 kJ$

$Q = 55.5 kJ$

So it will release total heat of 55.5 kJ when it will solidify

Two workers pull horizontally on a heavy box. but one pulls twice as hard as the other. The larger pull is directed at 21.0° wes

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of F1 is

$|F1|=358.74 \ N$

The magnitude of F2 is

$|F2|=179.37\ N$

And the direction of F2 is

$\alpha = 44.214^o$

Explanation:

Net Force

Forces are represented as vectors since they have magnitude and direction. The diagram of forces is shown in the figure below.

The larger pull F1 is directed 21° west of north and is represented with the blue arrow. The other pull F2 is directed to an unspecified direction (red arrow). Since the resultant Ft (black arrow) is pointed North, the second force must be in the first quadrant. We must find out the magnitude and angle of this force.

Following the diagram, the sum of the vector components in the x-axis of F1 and F2 must be zero:

$\displaystyle -2F\ sin21^o+F\ cos\alpha =0$
