The two cars collide at right angles in the intersection of two icy roads. Car A has a mass of 1965 kg and car B has a mass of 1

245 kg. The cars become entangled and move off together with a common velocity in the direction indicated. If car A was traveling 52 km/h at the instant of impact, compute the corresponding velocity of car B just before impact.

Answer:

U2 = 47.38m/s = initial velocity of B before impact

Explanation:

An example of the diagram is shown in the attached file because of missing angle of direction in the question

Mass A, B are mass of cars

A = 1965

B =1245

U1 = initial velocity of A = 52km/hr

U2 = initial velocity of B

V = common final velocity of two cars

BU2 = (A + B)*V sin ¤ ...eq1 y plane

AU1 = (A + B) *V cos ¤ ....equ 2plane

From equ 2

V = AU1/(A + B)*cos ¤

Substitute V into equation 1

We have

U2 = (AU1/B)tan ¤ where ¤ = angle of direction which is taken to be 30°

Substitute all parameters to get

U2 = (1965/1245)*52 * tan 30°

U2 = 47.38m/s

a hippopotamus produces a pressure of 250000 pa when it is standing on all four feet if the weight of the hippo is 40000 N what
mamaluj [8]

0.04m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 250000Pa

Weight = 40000N

Unknown:

Area of each foot = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted per unit area of a body

  Pressure = \frac{force}{area}

To find the area;

        Area = \frac{force }{pressure}

    Area = \frac{40000}{250000} = 0.16m²

The force exerted by all the four feet is 0.16m²

the area of each feet = \frac{0.16}{4} = 0.04m²

A Carnot air conditioner operates between an indoor temperature of 20°C and an outdoor temperature of 39°C. How much energy does
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

D. 130 J

Explanation:

The coefficient of performance for a machine that is being used to cool, is given by:

COP=\frac{Q_C}{W}=\frac{T_C}{T_H-T_C}

Here Q_C  is the heat removed from the cold reservoir, W is the work required, that is, the energy required to remove the heat from the interior of the house, T_C is the cold temperature and T_H is the hot temperature. Recall use absolutes temperatures(273.15+^\circ C). Replacing and solving for W:

W=Q_c\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}\\W=2000J\frac{312.15K-293.15K}{293.15K}\\W=129.63J

A 120-V motor has mechanical power output of 2.50hp. It is 90.0% efficient in converting power that it takes in by electrical tr
EastWind [94]
  1. The current in this motor is equal to 17.27 Ampere.
  2. The energy delivered to this motor in 3.00 hours is equal to 22.38 Megajoules.
  3. At $0.110/kWh, the cost to run the motor for 3.00 hours is equal to $0.684.

<h3>How to determine the current (in A) delivered to the motor?</h3>

Assuming this electric motor is a single-phase motor and it operates by using DC current, its mechanical power output would be given by:

W = ηIV

Making current (I) the subject of formula, we have:

I = ηV/W

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

I = (2.50 × 0.746 × 1000)/(0.9 × 120)

I = 1,865/108

Current, I = 17.27 Ampere.

For the energy delivered to this motor, we have:

First of all, we would determine the power delivered to this motor as follows:

Power, P = IV

Power, P = 17.27 × 120

Power, P = 2,072.4 Watt.

Therefore, the energy delivered to this motor in 3.00 hours is given by:

Energy = power × time

Energy = 2,072.4 × 3.00 × 3,600 × 1/1000000

Energy = 22.38 Megajoules.

<h3>How to determine the cost?</h3>

At $0.110/kWh, the cost to run the motor for 3.00 hours is given by:

Cost = 0.110 × 22.38 × 0.278

Cost = $0.684.
