A train starts from rest. It acquires a speed of 25 m/s after

Physics
1 answer:
fredd [130]3 years ago
3 0

Given parameters:

Initial speed of train  = 0m/s

Final speed  = 25m/s

time = 20s

Unknown:

Total distance covered  = ?

Solution:

Speed is a scalar quantity that has magnitude and no direction.

Mathematically;

     Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

  distance  = speed x time

 Input the parameters and solve for distance;

    Distance  = 25 x 20 = 500m

The distance covered is 500m

How long will it take a 2190 W motor to lift a 1.47 x 104 g box, 6.34 x 104 mm vertically.​
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t = 4.17 [s]

Explanation:

We know that work is defined as the product of force by distance.

W = F*d

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

d = distance = 6.34 x 10⁴ [mm] = 63.4 [m]

In order to find the force, we must determine the weight of the box, the weight can be determined by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

w = m*g

where:

m = mass = 1.47 x 10⁴ [g] = 14.7 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

w = 14.7*9.81

w = 144.2 [N]

Therefore the work can be calculated.

W = w*d

W = 144.2*63.4

W = 9142.72 [J] (units of Joules)

Power is now defined in physics as the relationship of work at a given time

P = W/t

where:

P = power = 2190 [W]

t = time [s]

Now clearing t, we have.

t = W/P

t = 9142.72/2190

t = 4.17 [s]

initially, a bowl holds 15 m^3 of water. an object is dropped into the bowl and the new volume of the water is 25 m^3. what is t
marusya05 [52]

Explanation:

The new volume of water = 25 ml

The old volume of water = 15 ml

The difference = 25 - 15 but what are the units?

Since the question asks for force, the units must start out as 10 mL

In water 1 mL has a mass of 1 gram, so the answer is 10 grams.

Grams are units of mass, not weight. You should convert this into newtons.

10 grams = 1/1000 = 0.01 kg

1 kg has a weight of 9.81 Newtons

0.01 kg has a weight 0.081 Newtons

If you have never seen a Newton before, then the answer is 10 grams

Identify three situations in which convection occurs.
Minchanka [31]
A boiling pot of water (the water travels in a current throughout the pot), a hot air balloon (hot air rises, making the balloon rise) , and cup of a steaming, hot liquid (hot air rises, creating steam) are all situations where convection occurs.
