As a delivery truck travels along a level stretch of road with constant speed, most of the power developed by the engine is used

to compensate for the energy transformations due to friction forces exerted on the delivery truck by the air and the road. If the power developed by the engine is 2.43 hp, calculate the total friction force acting on the delivery truck (in N) when it is moving at a speed of 24 m/s. One horsepower equals 746 W.

Answer:

F=75.53N

Explanation:

To calculate the power we define the equation,

P=Fv

Where,

F= Force

V= Velocity,

Here we have that 2.43hp is equal to 1812.78W,

clearing F,

F=\frac{P}{v} = \frac{1812}{24}\\F=75.53N

muminat

Answer:

2.1\cdot 10^{21} electrons

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field outside an electrically charged sphere is given by the equation

E=\frac{kQ}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge stored on the sphere

r is the distance (from the centre of the sphere) at which the field is calculated

In this problem, the cloud is assumed to be a  charged sphere, so we have:

E_b=3.00\cdot 10^6 N/C is the maximum electric field strength tolerated by the air before breakdown occurs

r=1.00 km = 1000 m is the radius of the sphere

Re-arranging the equation for Q, we find the maximum charge that can be stored on the cloud:

Q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(3.00\cdot 10^6)(1000)^2}{9\cdot 10^9}=333.3 C

Assuming that the cloud is negatively charged, then

Q=-333.3 C

And since the charge of one electron is

e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

The number of excess electrons on the cloud is

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{-333.3}{-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=2.1\cdot 10^{21}

Explain why the duster accelerates different rates when different surfaces are in contact with the track
vichka [17]

Answer:

Because on different surfaces there's more/less friction. Smooth surfaces will allow the duster to accelerate while rough surfaces will decrease the acceleration.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

<em>The Strength of the electric field produced =  2 × 10⁷ N/C</em>

Explanation:

<em>Electric Field:</em> This is defined as the region where an electric force is experienced.

<em>Electric Field Strength: </em><em>The intensity of an electric field at any point is defined as the force per unit charge which it exert at that point. It direction is that of  the force exerted on a positive charge.</em>

<em>It is represented mathematically as,</em>

<em>E = F/Q ................................. Equation 1</em>

<em>Where E = Electric field strength, F = electric force, Q = test charge.</em>

<em>Given: F = 3.2 × 10⁻⁴ N, Q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹¹ C</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>E= 3.2 × 10⁻⁴/1.6 × 10⁻¹¹ </em>

<em>E= 2 × 10⁷ N/C</em>

<em>Thus the Strength of the electric field produced =  2 × 10⁷ N/C</em>
