Real world situation to explain the relationship between work and power

1 answer:

5 0

-- You and your partner both get the same job to do:

Each of you gets a pallet of bricks, and you have to
put the bricks up on the bed of a truck, by hand.
Both pallets have the same number of bricks.

The pallet is way too heavy to lift, so you both cut the bands
that hold the bricks, and you lift the bricks from the pallet onto
the truck, by hand, two or three or four bricks at a time.

-- You get your pallet of bricks onto the truck in 45 minutes.

-- Your partner gets his pallet of bricks onto the truck in 3 days.

-- Work = (force) times (distance).

    You and your partner both lifted the same amount of weight
   up to the same height. You both did the same amount of work.

-- Power = (work done) divided by (time it takes to do the work) .

   Your partner took roughly 96 times as long as you took
   to do the same amount of work.
   You did it faster. He did it slower.
   You produced more power. He produced less power.

Which of the four fundamental forces is responsible for holding together the molecules of the pizza dough as it is spinning in t

defon

Answer:

None.

Explanation:

Molecules are formed by an element's need or excess of electrons. For example, in nature oxygen generally exists as 02. Other molecules are formed via chemical reaction. The example here is the burning of gasoline. Gasoline's two main byproducts are water and carbon dioxide.

Hydrogen as an atom has one electron making it unstable. Put a second hydrogen atom next to the first and the two atoms will share electrons to fill the first energy level the atom needs to be stable.

Two circular coils are concentric and lie in the same plane. The inner coil contains 170 turns of wire, has a radius of 0.0095 m

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Current in outer circle will be 15.826 A

Explanation:

We have given number of turns in inner coil $N_I=170$

Radius of inner circle $r_i=0.0095m$

Current in the inner circle $I_i=8.9A$

Number of turns in outer circle $N_o=150$

Radius of outer circle $r_o=0.015m$

We have to find the current in outer circle so that net magnetic field will zero

For net magnetic field current must be in opposite direction as in inner circle

We know that magnetic field is given due to circular coil is given by

$B=\frac{N\mu _0I}{2r}$

For net magnetic field zero

$\frac{N_I\mu _0I_I}{2r_I}=\frac{N_O\mu _0I_0}{2r_O}$

So $\frac{170\times \mu _0\times 8.9}{2\times 0.0095}=\frac{150\times \mu _0I_O}{2\times 0.015}$

$I_O=15.92A$

25% part (c) assume that d is the distance the cheetah is away from the gazelle when it reaches full speed. Derive an expression

levacccp [35]

maximum speed of cheetah is

$v_1 = v_{max}$

speed of gazelle is given as

$v_2 = v_{g}$

Now the relative speed of Cheetah with respect to Gazelle

$v_{12} = v_1 - v_2$

$v_{12} = v_{max} - v_g$

now the relative distance between Cheetah and Gazelle is given initially as "d"

now the time taken by Cheetah to catch the Gazelle is given as

$d = v_{12}* t$

so by rearranging the terms we can say

$t = \frac{d}{v_{12}}$

$t = \frac{d}{v_{max} - v_g}$

so above is the relation between all given variable

A major feature of the solar system is that as planets get farther away from the sun they, _________ a. Are warmer b. Have fewer

defon

D.
Have a longer revolution time since they definitely do not get warmer, They do not have fewer moons (Jupiter has about 100 and earth has 1) they are not smaller in diameter (Earth v Jupiter)

A mass of 0.450 kg rotates at constant speed with a period of 1.45 s at a radius R of 0.140 m in the apparatus used in this labo

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

1.603 s

Explanation:

Given that

Initial mass, = 0.45 kg

Initial period, = 1.45 s

Initial radius, = 0.14 m

Final mass, = 0.55 kg

Final period, = ?

Final radios, = 0.14 m

Since we are finding the rotation period of two masses of same radius, we can assume that the outward force is the same in both cases. This means that

m₁r₁ω₁² = m₂r₂ω2²

Where, ω = 2π/T, on substituting, we have

0.45 * 0.14 * (2π / 1.45)² = 0.550 * 0.14 * (2π / T₂)²

0.45 / 1.45² = 0.550 / T₂²

T₂² = 0.550 * 1.45² / 0.45

T₂² = 2.56972

T₂ = √2.56972

T₂ = 1.603 sec
