Answer: a) 18670 W b) 25 hp

Explanation:

a)

Average power,

P = W/t

W= 0.5 MVf^2 - 0.5 MVo^2

Therefore P =( (0.5 x 112 x 34.5^2 ) - (0.5 x 112 x 0 ) ) / 3.57

P = 1.87 x 10^4 W

b)

Power in units of horsepower is

P = 1.87 x 10^4 / 745.7 = 25hp

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 3 kg ball kicked into the air at a height of 5 meters?
sladkih [1.3K]

formula for gravitational P.E =mgh

Solution:-mass=3kg height=5metre and gravity=9.8 or 10m/sec² so P.E=mgh , 3×9.8×5=147kgm²/sec²

you throw an object straight up at 15m/s. how fast is it going when it gets back to the height from which you threw it?
laiz [17]
At the same speed because it will slow down as it approaches the peak then speed up as it goes down again


it will be going 15m/s when it gets to the same height if we neglect air resistance and the object doesn't hit something

An object is placed at 0 on a number line. It moves 3 units to the right, then 4 units to the left, and then 6 units to the righ
Verdich [7]

The correct answer is: +5

Explanation:

An object is placed at 0; it means:

Initial position of the object = 0.

Now it moves to 3 units to right, so keeping the standard cartesian coordinate system in mind (in right right x-axis is positive and left x-axis is right), the new position of the object will be +3.

Object now moves 4 units to the left, it means +3 - 4 = -1; object is at the position -1.

Object then moves 6 units to the right, therefore,

Final position of the object = -1 + 6 = +5.

Displacement = Final position - Initial position

Displacement = +5 - 0 = +5
