Answer:

 P = 75 W

Explanation:

given,

Distance, L = 8 m

Force,F = 150 N

Time, t = 16 s

Work by the climber

Work done = Force x displacement

W = F. L

W = 150 x 8

W = 1200 J

We know,

Power =\dfrac{Work\ done}{time}

P =\dfrac{1200}{16}

 P = 75 W

Hence, Power climber is using to climb is equal to 75 W.

A copper wire of length 16 cm is in a magnetic field of 0.19 T. If it has a mass of 9.0 g, what is the minimum current through t
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

2.9 A

Explanation:

L = 16 cm = 0.16 m

B = 0.19 T

m = 9 g = 0.009 kg

Let the minimum current be i.

Magnetic force is balanced by the gravitational force

B x i x L = m x g

0.19 x i x 0.16 = 0.009 x 9.8

i = 2.9 A

A star is in hydrostatic equilibrium when the outward push of pressure due to core burning is exactly in balance with the inward
viktelen [127]

Answer:

a and b

Explanation:

Hydro static equilibrium holds a star steady and balanced. Whenever a star stops burning hydrogen in its center, there must be evolutionary improvements to maintain equilibrium for the star Of example, if a star's internal pressure and temperature fall, gravity will take over and force the star to contract and heat up, restoring stability. By contrast, if a star's internal pressure and temperature rises, the extra pressure causes the star to widen and cool, restoring balance.

so, according to above explanation options a and b both are true

a) A small increase in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to expand and cool.

b) A small decrease in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to contract and heat up.

At 2 P.M., ship A is 150 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 35 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/h. How fast i
labwork [276]

Answer:

The distance between the ships changing at 6PM is 21.29Km/h

Explanation:

Ship A is sailing east at 35Km/h and ship B is sailing West at 25Km/h

Given

dx/dt= 35

dy/dt= 25

dv/dt= ???? at t= 6PM - 2PM= 4

Therefore t=4

We know ship A travels at 150km in the x-direction and Ship A at t=4 travels at 4.35 Which is 140 also in x-direction

So, we use:

D^2 = (150 - x)^2 + y^2;

D^2 = (150 - 140)^2 + y^2

But ship B travels at t=4, at 4.25 =100 in the y-direction

so, let's use the equation:

D^2 = 10^2 + 100^2

= D= sqrt*(10 + 100)

Lets use 2DD' = 2xx' + 2yy'

Differentiating with respect to t we have:

D•d(D)/dt = -(10)•dx/dt + 100•dy/dt

=100.5 d(D)/dt = (-10)•35 + (100)•25

When t=4, we have x=(140-150) =10 and y=100

= D = sqrt*(10^2 + 100^2)

=100.5

= 100.5 dD/dt = 10.35 +100.25

= dD/dt = 21.29km/h

Four states of matter and describe the particles arrangement of each
frutty [35]

Answer:

There are four natural states of matter: Solids, liquids, gases and plasma.

Explanation:

The fifth state is the man-made Bose-Einstein condensates. In a solid, particles are packed tightly together so they don't move much.

A truck travels to and from a stone quarry that is located 2.5km to the east.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Distance is 5.0 km and displacement is 0 km.

Explanation:

The diagram is shown below.

Distance is the total length that the truck covers along the complete journey. The truck moves from a stone quarry covering a length of 2.5 km and then again come back to the same point and thus covering another 2.5 km. Therefore, the total length covered by the truck is the sum of forward and backward paths which is equal to 5.0 km.

Now, displacement depends only on the initial and final position. It is given as the difference of final position and initial position. So, the truck starts from stone quarry and returns back to the same position. So, the initial position and final position is same. Therefore, the difference is 0 and hence displacement is zero.
