Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the work per unit of time. The first step to solve this problem is by calculating the work which can be determined by the equation:

W = Fd

where:

F = force exerted = ma
d = distance traveled
m = mass of object
a = acceleration

Acceleration is equivalent to the gravitational constant (9.81 m/s^2) if the force exerted has a vertical direction such as lifting.

W = Fd = mad = 63(9.81)(7) = 4326.21 Joules

Now that we have work, we can calculate power.

P = W/t = 4325.21 J / 5 seconds = 865.242 J/s or watts

Convert watts to horsepower (1 hp = 745.7 watts)

P = 865.242 watts (1hp/745.7 watts) = 1.16 hp

work = mgh

power = mgh/t = 63•9.8•7/5 = 864 watts

1 HP = 746 watts

so that is 834/746 = 1.2 HP

What is the force of a ball if it has a mass of 10 kg and accelerates at an acceleration of 20 m/s^2? *
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

200N

Explanation:

mass(m) = 10 kg

acceleration(a) = 20 m/s^2

Force = mass * acceleration

          = 10*20

          = 200 N

Force = 200N

The velocity of a 0.25kg model rocket changes from 15m/s [up] to 40m/s [up] in
vivado [14]

The force the escaping gas exerts of the rocket is 10.42 N.

<h3>Force escaping gas exerts</h3>

The force the escaping gas exerts of the rocket is calculated as follows;

F = m(v - u)/t

where;

  • m is mass of the rocket
  • v is the final velocity of the rocket
  • u is the initial velocity of the rocket
  • t is time of motion

F = (0.25)(40 - 15)/0.6

F = 10.42 N

Thus, the force the escaping gas exerts of the rocket is 10.42 N.
