Some gliders are launched from the ground by means of a winch, which rapidly reels in a towing cable attached to the glider. Wha
aliina [53]

Answer:

P=627.47W

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to take into account, that the work done by the winch is

W=Fh

the force, at least must equal the gravitational force

F=Mg=(156kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})=1258.8N

with force the tension in the cable makes the winch go up.

The work done is

W=(1258.8N)(58.0m)=73010.4J

To calculate the power we need to know what is the time t. But first we have to compute the acceleration

The acceleration will be

v_f^2=v_0+2ah\\a=\frac{v_f^2}{2h}=\frac{(24.9\frac{m}{s})}{2(58.0m)}=0.214\frac{m}{s^2}

and the time t

v_f=v_0+at\\t=\frac{v_f}{a}=116.35s

The power will be

P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{73010.4J}{116.35s}=627.47W

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft, what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules,
Kitty [74]

Answer:

352,088.37888Joules

Explanation:

Complete question;

A hiker of mass 53 kg is going to climb a mountain with elevation 2,574 ft.

A) If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft., what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules, once they reach the top? (Assume the zero of gravitational potential is at sea level)

Chane in potential energy is expressed as;

ΔGPH = mgΔH

m is the mass of the hiker

g is the acceleration due to gravity;

ΔH is the change in height

Given

m = 53kg

g = 9.8m/s²

ΔH = 2574-350 = 2224ft

since 1ft = 0.3048m

2224ft = (2224*0.3048)m = 677.8752m

Required

Gravitational potential energy

Substitute the values into the formula;

ΔGPH = mgΔH

ΔGPH = 53(9.8)(677.8752)

ΔGPH = 352,088.37888Joules

Hence the gravitational potential energy is 352,088.37888Joules

If the focal length of a concave mirror is 18cm, find its radius of curvature.
Galina-37 [17]

Given :

The focal length of a concave mirror is 18 cm.

To Find :

The radius of curvature of the concave mirror.

Solution :

We know,

\text{Focal length}=\dfrac{\text{Radius of curvature}}{2}\\\\F=\dfrac{R}{2}\\\\R = 18\times 2\ cm\\\\R = 36 \ cm

Therefore, the radius of curvature of concave mirror is 36 cm.

Hence, this is the required solution.

An engine causes a car to move 10 meters with a force of 100 N. The engine produces 10,000 J of energy. What is the efficiency o
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Part A

The efficiency of the engine is 10%

Part B

The change in internal energy is 300 J

Part C

The change in volume is 1 m³ which is one cubic meter

Explanation:

Part A

Efficiency is defined as the ratio of energy output to energy input;

The given parameters are;

The distance the car is moved, d = 10 meters

The force which moves the car, F = 100 N

The amount of energy produced by the engine = 1,000 J

Therefore, we have;

The energy output to the car = The work done on the car = Force applied to the car, F × The distance the car moves, d;

∴ The energy output to the car by the engine = F × d = 100 N × 10 m = 1,000 J

The energy input from the engine = The energy produced by the engine = 10,000 J

The efficiency of the engine = (The energy output)/(The energy input)= 1,000J/10,00J = 0.1

The efficiency in percentage = 0.1 × 100 = 10 %

The efficiency of the engine = 10%

Part B

The amount of heat added to the substance, ΔQ = 1,000J

The amount of work the substance does on the atmosphere, W = 700 J

The change in internal energy, ΔU is given as follows;

ΔQ = W + ΔU

∴ ΔU = ΔQ - W

For the substance, we have;

The change in internal energy, ΔU = 1,000 J - 700 J = 300 J

Part C

The work done by the piston, W = 1,000 J

The pressure, in the piston, P = 1,000 Pa = constant

The work done by the piston in a constant pressure process, W = P × ΔV

Where;

W = The work done

P = The constant pressure applied

ΔV = The change in volume = V₂ - V₁

V₂ = The final volume

V₁ = The initial volume

∴The change in volume ΔV = W/P = 1,000 J/(1,000Pa) = 1 m³

The change in volume ΔV = 1 m³
