Answer:

They can use it for when they are dormant in the winter or to grow more sources for storing and creating energy, or they store the energy (this energy would be considered stored energy).

A force of 14 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work W is done in stretching i
enyata [817]

Answer:

W = 19.8 J

Explanation:

14 lb force is required to stretch the spring by 4 inch distance

So we have

F = 14 lbf

F = 6.35 \times 9.8 N

F = 62.3 N

stretch in the spring is given as

x = 4 in = 0.1016 m

now we will have

F = kx

62.3 = k(0.1016)

k = 613.125 N/m

Now we need to find the work to stretch it by x = 10 in = 0.254 m

so we have

W = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

W = \frac{1}{2}(613.125)(0.254)^2

W = 19.8 J

A Ferris wheel turns at a constant 150.0 revolutions per hour. (a) Express this rate of rotation in units of radians per second.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.261 rad/s

(b) 1007.72 m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel is 150.0 revolutions per hour.

(a) To calculate the angular velocity of the wheel in units of radians per second, you take into account the following equivalence:

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 revolution = 2π radians

You use the previous conversion factors:

150.0\ \frac{rev}{h}*\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1\ rev}*\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s}=0.261\frac{rad}{s}

In units of radians per seconds the wheel turns at 0.261 rad/s

(b) To find the arc length described by the wheel, you first calculate the angle described by the  wheel in the time t, by using the following formula:

\theta=\omega t     (1)

ω: angular velocity = 0.261 rad/s

t: time = 4.95 min

You first convert the time to units of seconds

4.95min*\frac{60s}{1min}=297s

Next, you replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

\theta=(0.261\frac{rad}{s})(297s)=77.51rad

Next, you use the following formula for the arc length:

s=r\theta     (2)

r: radius of the wheel = 13.0 m

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (2):

s=(13.0m)(77.51rad)=1007.72m

The arc length described by the wheel is 1007.72m

Most geologists believe that the dinosaurs became extinct 65 million years ago when a large comet or asteroid struck the earth,
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

A) 1.67 x 10 ⁻⁶ m/s

B)5.59 x 10^-^9 %

Explanation:

A)

Given:

d = 5.0 km,

mₐ = 2.5 x 10^1^4 kg

u₁ = 4.0 x 10⁴ m/s

m_n = 5.98 x 10 ²⁴ kg

Solve using kinetic conserved energy

mₐ x u₁ + m_n  x u₂ = uₓ x (mₐ + m_n )

(2.5 x 10^1^4) (4.0 x 10⁴ )+ (5.98 x 10 ²⁴ )(0) = uₓ x (2.5 x 10^1^4 + 5.98 x 10 ²⁴ )

uₓ = ( 2.5 x 10^1^4 x 4.0 x 10⁴ ) / (2.5 x 10^1^4 + 5.98 x 10 ²⁴ )    

uₓ = 1.67 x 10 ⁻⁶ m/s

B) Assuming earth radius as a R = 1.5 x 10 ¹¹ m

t = 365 days  x 24 hr / 1 day x 60 minute / 1 hr x 60s / 1 minute = 31536000 s

t = 31536000 s

D = 2 π R = 2 π( 1.5 x 10 ¹¹ )

D = 9.4247 x 10 ¹¹ m

u₂  = D / t  = 9.4247 x 10 ¹¹  / 31536000

u₂ =  29885.775 m/s

% = (  1.67 x 10 ⁻⁶ m/s ) / (29885.775 m/s) x 100

% = 5.59 x 10^-^9 %

On a farm, you are pushing on a stubborn pig with a constant horizontal force with magnitude 30.0 n and direction 37.0° counterc
sashaice [31]

<span>Since the force is applied at an angle from the horizontal, we will use the horizontal component of this force in calculating for the displacements.
From derivation, the Fx is:</span>

Fx = F cos φ

Where:

Fx = is the horizontal component of the force

F = total force

φ = angle in radian = 37 * pi / 180 = 0.645 rad

Calculating: Fx = 30.0 N * cos(0.645)

Fx = 23.97 N = 24 N

Calculating for Work: W = Fx * d

A. W = 24 N * 15 m = 360 N

B. W = 24 N * 16 m = 384 N

C. W = 24 N * 12 m = 288 N

D. W = 24 N * 14 m = 336 N
