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

The average mass of a car in the US is 1.440 x 10^6 g. Express this mass in kg.
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Average mass of acar in the US (in kg) = 1440 kg

Explanation:

Average mass of a car in the US (in g) = 1.440 × 10⁶ g

Mass in kg:

\rm 1 \: g =  {10}^{ - 3}  \: kg \\  \\  \rm 1.440 \times 10^6 \ g = 1.440 \times 10^6  \times  {10}^{ - 3} \ kg \\  \\  \rm = 1.440 \times 10^{6 - 3} \ kg \\  \\  \rm = 1.440 \times 10^3 \ kg \\  \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 1000 \ kg \\  \\ \rm = 1440 \ kg

A motorcycle that is slowing down uniformly. The motorcycle covers 1 ????m=1000 m in 80 sec⁡. The motorcycle then covers the nex
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Part a)

acceleration = -0.042 m/s/s

Part b)

initial speed = 14.17 m/s

final speed = 5.77 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

Let the initial velocity of the motorcycle is

v_i = v_o

now at the end of 80 s let the speed is

v_f = v_1

after another 120 s let the speed will be

v_f' = v_2

now we know that

d = \frac{v_i + v_f}{2} (t)

d = \frac{v_o + v_1}{2}(80)

1000 = 40(v_o + v_1)

also we know that

v_1 - v_o = a(80)

also we have

1000 = \frac{v_1 + v_2}{2}(120)

1000 = 60(v_1 + v_2)

now we can say

(v_2 + v_1) - (v_o + v_1) = \frac{50}{3} - \frac{50}{2}

also we know

v_2 - v_o = a(120 + 80)

-8.33 = 200 a

a = -0.042 m/s^2

Part b)

now we have

v_1 + v_o = 25

v_1 - v_o = (-0.042)(80)

v_1 = 10.83 m/s

so the starting velocity of the trip is

v_o = 25 - 10.83 = 14.17 m/s

now speed after t = 200 s is given as

v_2 = v_o + at

v_2 = 14.17 - (0.042)(200)

v_2 = 5.77 m/s
