If only 10 pounds is required to lift a 500-lb block, how much chain must be played out to lift the engine 3.0 inches?

Answer:

150 inches (12.5 ft)

Explanation:

The work done to lift the 500 pound block 3 inches should be the same as that to lift the 10 pond object a given distance.

The following is the equation one needs to solve:

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,500\,lb\,*\,3\,in\\10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\

therefore solving for the distance "x" gives as the answer (in inches):

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\x\,=\,\frac{1500\,lb\,in}{10\,lb} \\\\x\,=150\,in

which can also be given in feet as: 12.5 ft

A 60 W light bulb is powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals. a) What is the current passi
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The current through the resistor is 0.5 A

Explanation:

Given;

power of the light bulb = 60 W

voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals = 120 V

power of the light bulb is the product of voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals and the current passing through the resistor.

power = voltage x current

Current = \frac{power}{voltage} = \frac{60}{120} = 0.5 A

Therefore, for a  60 W light bulb powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals, the current passing through the resistor is 0.5 A

Calcular la resistencia de una varilla de grafito de 170 cm de longitud y 60 mm2. Resistividad grafito 3,5 10-5 Ωm
ozzi

Answer:

R = 0.992 Ω

Explanation:

En esta pregunta, dada la información que contiene, debemos calcular la resistencia de la varilla de grafito.

Matemáticamente,

Resistencia = (resistividad * longitud) / Área De la pregunta;

Resistividad = 3,5 * 10 ^ -5 Ωm

longitud = 170 cm = 1,7 m

Área = 60 mm ^ 2 = 60/1000000 = 6 * 10 ^ -5 m ^ 2

Conectando estos valores a la ecuación anterior, tenemos;

Resistencia = (3.5 * 10 ^ -5 * 1.7) / (6 * 10 ^ -5) =

(3.5 * 1.7) / 6 = 0.992 Ω

I have a hot air balloon that has 18.0 g helium gas inside of it. if the pressure is 2.00 atm and the temperature is 297k, what
Anastaziya [24]

M = molar mass of the helium gas = 4.0 g/mol

m = mass of the gas given = 18.0 g

n = number of moles of the gas

number of moles of the gas is given as

n = m/M

n = 18.0/4.0

n = 4.5 moles

P = pressure = 2.00 atm = 2.00 x 101325 Pa = 202650 Pa

V = Volume of balloon = ?

T = temperature = 297 K

R = universal gas constant = 8.314

Using the ideal gas equation

P V = n R T

(202650) V = (4.5) (8.314) (297)

V = 0.055 m³
