Answer:

Power consumed = 2250 watt

Explanation:

When resistive loads are connected in parallel to a voltage source, the powers are additive.

Power consumed = Number of lamps * Power consumed by each lamp

Power consumed = 9 * 250

Power consumed = 2250 watt

What happens when exhale
polet [3.4K]
When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. The intercostal muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

On a horizontal surface is located
Ierofanga [76]

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)

In creating his definition of horsepower, James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine, calculated the power output of a horse o
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 182.3 Lb

Part b)

P = 0.55 HP

Explanation:

Diameter of the circle = 24 ft

Diameter = 731.52 cm = 7.3152 m

now the horse complete 144 trips in one hour

so time to complete one trip is given as

t = \frac{3600}{144} s

t = 25 s

now the speed of the horse is given as

v = \frac{2\pi r}{t}

v = \frac{\pi(7.3152)}{25}

v = 0.92 m/s

Part a)

Now we know that the power is defined as rate of work done

it is given as

P = F v

746 = F(0.92)

F = 810.9 N

F = 182.3 Lb

Part b)

Work done to climb up to 3 m height is given by

W = mgh

now we have

Power = \frac{Work}{time}

P = \frac{mgh}{t}

P = \frac{(70kg)(9.81)(3)}{5.0s}

P = 412.02 Watt

now we know that 1 HP = 746 Watt

so we have

P = \frac{412}{746} = 0.55 HP
