Answer:

16.96 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done by an object. The S.I unit of power is Watt(W).

From the question,

P = (F×d)/t....................... Equation 1

Where P = power, F = force, d = distance, t = time.

Given: F = 75 N, d = 42 m, t = 3.1 min = 3.1×60 = 186 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (75×42)/186

P = 16.94 W

Hence the average power delivered by the child  = 16.96 W

A spring is used as part of a lift system and follows Hooke's law. If the spring is
salantis [7]

Answer:

1.05m or 105cm

Explanation:

Using the hooke's law equation as follows;

F = –k.x

Where;

F = force (N)

x = extension length (m)

k = constant of proportionality (N/m)

According to the information given in this question;

Displacement (x) = 85cm = 85/100 = 0.85m

Force = 12500N

Using F = kx, we find the proportionality constant

k = F/x

K = 12500/0.85

K = 14705.8N/m.

Also, since K = 14705.8N/m, the displacement (x), when the force increases to 15500N is;

F = kx

x = F/k

x = 15500/14705.8

x = 1.05m or 105cm

The total momentum of the system is preserved through the collision.

Note that momentum is
P = m*v
where m = mass
v = velocity.

Initial momentum:
P1 = (30000 kg)*(2 m/s) = 60000 (kg-m)/s for the moving car
P2 = 0 for the starionary car.

Final momentum:
P3 = (30000 + 30000)*v = 60000v (kg-m)/s

Because momentum is preserved,
P3 = P1 + P2
60000v = 60000
v = 1 m/s
The final velocity is 1 m/s.

Answer: 1.0 m/s

shusha [124]

Answer:

19.99 kg m²/s

Explanation:

Angular Momentum (L) is defined as the product of the moment of Inertia (I) and angular velocity (w)

L = m r × v.

r and  v are perpendicular to each other,

where r = lsinθ.

l = 2.4 m

θ= 34°

g = 9.8 m/s²  and m = 5 kg

resolving using newtons second law in the vertical and horizontal components.

T cos θ − m g = 0

T sin θ − mw² lsin θ = 0

where T is the force with which the wire acts on the bob

w = √g / lcosθ

= √ 9.8 / 2.4 ×cos 34

= 2.2193 rad/s

the angular momentum  L = mr× v

= mw (lsin θ)²

= 5 × 2.2193 (2.4 ×sin 34°)²

=19.99 kg m²/s
