Answer:

Hans is more powerful

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is used up.

The expression for power is given as,

P = E/t

P = mgh/t................. Equation 1

Where P = power, W = Work, t = time, m = mass, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Hans' power

P = mgh/t

Given: m = 100 kg, h = 2 m, g = 9.8 m/s², t = 3 s

Substitute into equation 1

P = 100(9.8)(2)/3

P = 653.33 W.

Frans' power

P' = mgh/t

Given; m = 200 kg, h = 5 m, t = 20 s.

P' = 200(5)(9.8)/20

P' = 9800/20

P' = 490 W

from the above,

since P>P'

Hence, Hans is more powerful

The deepest point in the ocean is 11 km below sea level, deeper than Mt. Everest is tall.
34kurt

The pressure at the depth 11 km below sea level can be calculated using

P=ρgh

P is pressure, ρ is the density of the fluid; g is the gravitational constant, h is the height from the surface, or depth that the object is submerged.

P = ( 1000 kg/ m3) ( 9.81 m.s2)( 11 000m) + 1 atm

P = 107,910,000 pa ( 1 atm/ 101 325 Pa) + 1 atm = 1066 atm

A 4.5 g coin sliding to the right at 23.8 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 13.5 g coin that is initially at rest.
Airida [17]

Answer:

a) v = 11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} \,(11.9\,\frac{cm}{s} ), b) \Delta K = 9.559\times 10^{-5}\,J

Explanation:

a) The final velocity of the 13.5 g coin is found by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(4.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot (23.8\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )+(13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg})\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (4.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot (-11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )+(13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg})\cdot v

The final velocity is:

v = 11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} \,(11.9\,\frac{cm}{s} )

b) The change in the kinetic energy of the 13.5 g coin is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (13.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left[(11.9\times 10^{-2}\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(0\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}\right]

\Delta K = 9.559\times 10^{-5}\,J

He instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 11.1 psi . you know that standard atmosphe
blagie [28]

Given that,

Atmospheric Pressure = 14.7 psi

Cooking Pressure = 14.7 +11.1 = 25.8 psi

Take, Atmospheric Temperature = 25 °C

Cooking Temperature = ??

Since, we know that Gas equation is given by:

PV = nRT

or

P ∝ T

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

14.7/ 25 = 25.8/ T2

T2 = 25*25.8/14.7

T2 = 43.87 °C

The cooking pressure will be 43.87 °C.
