Answer:

  • It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
  • It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

Explanation:

Assuming the machine is a simple machine, such as a lever or pulley, the machine will not do any more work than is put into it. However, it can change the magnitude or direction (or both) of the input force required to achieve a particular output force.

Because the machine does not increase the work done, if the output force is greater, the output distance must be less.

The applicable observations are ...

  • It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
  • It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

An object is launched with an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal . What is the maximum height reach
matrenka [14]

Answer:

H = 34.43 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the object, u = 30 m/s

The angle of projection, \theta=60^{\circ}

We need to find the maximum height reached by the object. Let it is H. Using the formula for maximum height reached by the projectile.

H=\dfrac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}\\\\H=\dfrac{(30)^2\times \sin^2(60)}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=34.43\ m

So, the maximum height reached by the object is 34.43 m.

At which temperature will water boil when the external pressure is 17.5 torr
ch4aika [34]
<span>The temperature of water will boil at one hundred degrees celsius when the external pressure is at 17.5 torr. Essentially, it is based off of the vaporizing of heat, as well as the gas constant. This is a matter of solving a physics equation and breaking down the factors that will affect the boiling point.</span>

A rocket of mass 1000kg uses 5kg of fuel and oxygen to produce exhaust gases ejected at 500m/s calculate the increase its veloci
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Approximately \rm 2.5\; m \cdot s^{-1}.

Explanation:

Let the increase in the rocket's velocity be \Delta v. Let v_0 represent the initial velocity of the rocket. Note that for this question, the exact value of  v_0 doesn't really matter.

The momentum of an object is equal to its mass times its velocity.

  • Mass of the rocket with the 5 kg of fuel: 1000.
  • Initial velocity of the rocket and the fuel: v_0.
  • Hence the initial momentum of the rocket: 1000\,v_0.
  • Mass of the rocket without that 5 kg of fuel: 1000 - 5 = 995.
  • Final velocity of the rocket: v_0 + \Delta v.
  • Hence the final momentum of the rocket: 995\,(v_0 + \Delta v).
  • Mass of the 5 kg of fuel: 5.
  • Final velocity of the fuel: v_0 - 500 (assuming that the the 500 m/s in the question takes the rocket as its reference.)
  • Hence the final momentum of the fuel: 5\,(v_0 - 500).

Momentum is conserved in an isolated system like the rocket and its fuel. That is:

Sum of initial momentum = Sum of final momentum.

1000\,v_0 = 995\,(v_0 + \Delta v) + 5\,(v_0 - 500).

Note that 1000\, v_0 appears on both sides of the equation. These two terms could hence be eliminated.

0 = 995\, \Delta v - 5\times 500.

\displaystyle \Delta v = \frac{5}{995}\times 500 \approx \rm 2.5\; m \cdot s^{-1}.

Hence, the velocity of the rocket increased by around 2.5 m/s.

A popular car stereo has four speakers, each rated at 60 W. In answering the following questions, assume that the speakers produ
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of sound = sound energy emitted by source / 4 π d² , where d is distance of the source .

A )

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /4 π d²

d = 1 m

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /(4 π 1²)

= 4.78 W m⁻² s⁻¹

B )

Intensity of sound at 1.5 m distance = 60 /4 π d²

d = 1.5  m

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /(4 π 1.5²)

= 2.12 W m⁻² s⁻¹

C )

Intensity of sound due to 4 speakers at 1.5 m distance = 4 x 60 /4 π d²

d = 1.5  m

= 4 x 60 /(4 π 1.5²)

= 8.48 W m⁻² s⁻¹

D )

Intensity of sound due to .06 W speaker must be 10⁻¹² W s ⁻² . Let the distance be d .

.06 /4 π d² = 10⁻¹²

d² = .06 /4 π 10⁻¹²

d = 6.9 x 10⁴ m .

What is the speed of a bobsled who's distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 106m in 26s?
swat32

To find the speed of the bobsled, you divide the distance by time. So, when you divide 106 by 26, you get 4.07. This means the speed of the bobsled is about 4 miles per hour.
