Answer:

work = 1125 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember the definition of power, which is defined as the relationship between work and time. The power can be calculated using the following equation:

Power = work/time

Power = 12.5 [w]

work = joules [J]

time = 1.5 [min] = 90 [s]

work = 12.5*90

work = 1125 [J]

The Eiffel tower in Paris is 300 meters tall on a cold day (T = -24 degrees Celsius), what is its height on a hot day when the t

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Length of Eiffel tower, when the temperature is 35 degrees = 300.21 m

Explanation:

Thermal expansion is given by the expression

$\Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T \\$

Here length of Eiffel tower, L = 300 m

Coefficient of thermal expansion, α = 0.000012 per degree Celsius

Change in temperature, = 35 - (-24) = 59degrees Celsius

Substituting

$\Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T= 300\times 0.000012\times 59=0.2124m \\$

Length of Eiffel tower, when the temperature is 35 degrees = 300 + 0.2124 = 300.21 m

HELP QUICK WILL GIVE BRAINLEST!!!!

Hello!

The statement that describes the solar feature shooting off into space labeled C is An envelope of plasma surrounding the Sun.

This is called the Solar Corona. It is the outmost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. The Corona is hotter than the visible surface of the Sun. (1 000 000 - 3 000 000 K). It is composed of Plasma (The fourth state of the matter, similar to the gaseous state, but with electrically charged particles). All structural details of the Solar Corona are derived from the Magnetic Field of the Sun.

Have a nice day!

Tarzan (who has mass 80.0 kg) is running across the jungle floor with speed 7.00 m/s as

Lesechka [4]

We are given:

Mass of Tarzan before swinging = 80 kg

Mass of Tarzan when swinging = 80 + 15 = 95 kg

Velocity of Tarzan = 7 m/s

The height of the rock Tarzan's monkey is sitting on = 3 m

__________________________________________________________

Momentum of Tarzan before swinging:

We know that:

Momentum = Mass*Velocity

Momentum = 80 * 7

Momentum = 560 kg m/s

__________________________________________________________

Speed of Tarzan after grabbing the bananas:

The momentum of Tarzan will remain the same but his mass will increase

So, Since Momentum = New Mass* velocity

560 = 95 * v [where v is the velocity of Tarzan]

v = 5.9 m/s

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the Initial and Final KE and PE:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

Initial and Final KE:

We know that KE = 1/2*(mv²)

Initial KE:

Initial KE = 1/2*(mv²) [where v is the velocity after picking the bananas]

Initial KE = 1/2*(95*5.9²)

Initial KE = 1653.5 Joules

Final KE:

Final KE = 1/2*(mv²)

[where v is the velocity at the maximum point of the swing]

Since Tarzan will be at rest at the maximum point of the swing, v = 0 m/s

Final KE = 1/2*(95*0²)

Final KE = 0 Joules

Initial and Final PE:

We know that:

PE = mgh

[where g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height]

Initial PE:

Since the height of Tarzan from the ground was 0 m at the beginning of the swing, h = 0

Initial PE = 95*10*0

Initial PE = 0 Joules

Final PE:

Let the maximum height of Tarzan be h m

Final PE = 95*10*h

Final PE = 950(h)

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Finding the maximum height Tarzan will reach:</h3>

Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy

From the law of conservation of momentum, we know that:

Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE

Replacing the variables:

1653.5 + 0 = 0 + 950h

1653.5 = 950h

h = 1653.5/950 [dividing both sides by 950]

h = 1.74 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by Tarzan is 1.74 m

but since his monkey is sitting 3 m high, he will NOT be able to reach his monkey

How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16

Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by ( 1 / √16 ) = ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to 1/4 of what it is now.
