Answer:

176.58Watts

Explanation:

Power= work done /time

Where mass(m)=60kg

Height (h) =3m

Time(s)=10s

Force of gravity = 9.81m/s^2

Power=mgh/t

Power= (60kg) * (9.81m/s^2) * (3m)/10s

Power= 176.58Watts

Is it possible for a circuit to be connected both in series and in parallel?

Hello There!

Well, technically no. It has to be one or the other, it can't be both.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?

pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.

A certain quantity of steam has a temperature of 100.0 oC. To convert this steam into ice at 0.0 oC, energy in the form of heat

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

2452.79432 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of ice

$L_s$ = Latent heat of steam

$s_w$ = Specific heat of water

$L_i$ = Latent heat of ice

v = Velocity of ice

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

Amount of heat required for steam

$Q_1=mL_s\\\Rightarrow Q_1=m(2.256\times 10^6)$

Heat released from water at 100 °C

$Q_2=ms_w\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m4186\times (100-0)\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m0.4186\times 10^6$

Heat released from water at 0 °C

$Q_3=mL_i\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(333.5\times 10^3)\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(0.3335\times 10^6)$

Total heat released is

$Q=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3\\\Rightarrow Q=m(2.256\times 10^6)+m0.4186\times 10^6+m(0.3335\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow Q=3008100m$

The kinetic energy of the bullet will balance the heat

$K=Q\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^2=3008100m\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 3008100}\\\Rightarrow v=2452.79432\ m/s$

The velocity of the ice would be 2452.79432 m/s

A 100-kg astronaut is floating in outer space. If the astronaut throws a 2-kilogram wrench at a speed of 10 meters per second, w

sergey [27]

Since Astronaut and wrench system is isolated in the space and there is no external force on it

So here momentum of the system will remain conserved

so here we can say

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

initially both are at rest

so here plug in all values

$0 = 100 v_{1f} + 2\times 10$

$v_{1f} = -0.20 m/s$

so here the astronaut will move in opposite direction and its speed will be equal to 0.20 m/s
