The power expended is 500 W

Explanation:

First of all, we start by calculating the work done by the man in order to ascend: this is equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by the man, which is

W=mg\Delta h

where

m = 50 kg is the mass of the man

g=10 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h = 5 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(50)(10)(5)=2500 J

Now we can calculate the power expended, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W = 2500 J is the work done

t = 5 s is the time elapsed

Substituting, we find

P=\frac{2500}{5}=500 W

an object is producing a sound that has a wavelength in air of 2.69m. If the speed of sound in air is 346m/s, what is the freque
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

129.74 Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 346 m / sec

wavelength ( λ ) = 2.69 m

We have to calculate Frequency ( f ) :

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > f = v / λ

Putting values here we get:

= > f = 346 / 2.69 Hz

= > f = 34600 / 269 Hz

= > f = 129.74 Hz

Hence, frequency of sound is 129.74 Hz.

a motorcyclist starts from rest and accelerates at rate of 4 meters per second squared north. what is the final velocity of the
MArishka [77]

Answer:

80m<em>/</em><em>s</em>

Explanation:

Final velocity is given by

v=u+at

when a motorcyclist starts from rest, initial velocity (u) =0

therefore

v=0+4*20

v=80m/s

that's the answer

prisoha [69]

The options are;

a. V2 equals 2V1.

b. V2 equals (V1)/2.

c. V2 equals V1.

d. V2 equals (V1)/4.

e. V2 equals 4V1.

Answer:

Option A: V2 equals 2V1

Explanation:

Since the flow is steady, then we can say;

mass flow rate at input = mass flow rate at output.

Formula for mass flow rate is;

m' = ρVA

Thus;

At input;

m'1 = ρ1•V1•A1

At output;

m'2 = ρ2•V2•A2

So, m'1 = m'2

Now, we are told that the density of the fluid decreases to half its initial value.

Thus; ρ2 = (ρ1)/2

Since m'1 = m'2, then;

ρ1•V1•A1 = (ρ1)/2•V2•A2

Now, the pipe is uniform and thus the cross section doesn't change. Thus;

A1 = A2

We now have;

ρ1•V1•A1 = (ρ1)/2•V2•A1

A1 and ρ1 will cancel out to give;

V1 = (V2)/2

Thus, V2 = 2V1
