A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in

3.0 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator’s counterweight has a mass of only 950 kg, and so the elevator motor must help. What average power is required of the force the motor exerts on the cab via the cable?

Answer:

The average power is calculated as 735.0 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Total mass, M = 1200 kg

Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950

Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m

Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s

Now,

To calculate the average power:

First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:

Force, F = (M - m)g = (1200 - 950)\times 9.8 = 2450 N

Now, the work done by this force:

W = Fd = 2450\times 54 = 132300\ J = 132.3\ kJ

Average power is given as:

P_{avg} = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{132300}{180} = 735.0\ W

During anomalous expansion of water ,heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only ,explain.​
aalyn [17]

Heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only in anomalous expansion of water simply because of the temperature at which the expansion occurs and density

<h3>What is anomalous expansion of water?</h3>

Anomalous expansion of water is a property of water in which water expands instead of contracting.

  • Anomalous expansion of water makes water less dense.
  • The major effect of this anomalous expansion it will still remain less dense and at the surface of water.
  • Interestingly, this expansion occurs when it is cooled from 4°C to 0°C.
