Real-world examples of power

Physics
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago

By definition, power is the amount of energy consumed (or produced) in a second. (or more precisely, it is the rate of change in energy).
so anything which uses energy in a known time period can be labeled with a power rating.

an example for power could be a nuclear plant; traditional nuclear plants produce somewhat close to 1 giga watts (which means 1 giga joules in a second)

What's the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 30 kilograms and moves with a velocity of 20m/s?
icang [17]

Ek = 6KJ.

In physics, the kinetic energy of a body or object is the one that owns due to its movement and is given by the equation E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}, where m is the mass of the object in kilograms and v is the velocity in m/s.

An object that it has a mass of 30 kilograms and moves with a velocity of 20m/s, its kinetic energy is given by:

E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (30kg)(20m/s)^{2}=6000J=6KJ

10. Calculate the kinetic energy of a running back that has a mass of 80 kg and
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2560 J</h2>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object given it's mass and velocity can be found by using the formula

KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

m = 80 kg

v = 8 m/s

The kinetic energy is

KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 80 \times  {8}^{2}  \\  = 40 \times 64

We have the final answer as

<h3>2560 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!
cluponka [151]

I would say Anthony has more power than Angel. If they are both exerting the same force on the box, which isnt really mentioned here, which is why I believe this is a bit vague, then the both do the same work. So, if the work is equal then the person with the lower time period would have more power. Since Anthony only took 38 seconds, compared to Angel's 42 I would say that Anthony has more power than Angel.

How much work is needed to stretch this spring a distance of 5.0 cm , starting with it unstretched?
olganol [36]

The spring's work output while it is not extended is 5 J.

<h3>What is The Hooke's law ?</h3>

According to Hooke's law, as long as the elastic limit is not exceeded, the extension of a particular material is directly proportional to the force applied. Hence, we must be aware of that F = Ke

F = Applied force

Force constant is K.

Extension = e

F = applied force

Force constant is K.

Extension = e

Using the graph

K = F/e

F = 200N

E equals 5 cm or 5 * 10-2 m

K = 200N/ 5 * 10^-2 m

K = 4000 N/m

Now;

Work = 1/2Ke^2

Work = 0.5 * 4000 N/m * (5 * 10^-2 m)^2

Work = 5 J
