Answer:

a) 12.01 W

b) 63.506 N

c) 11.82 s

Explanation:

Given data:

mass = 75 kg

slope of inclination = 3 degree

speed of skier is 2.00 m/s

air Resistance = 25 N

a) From the given information we have following relation

$F_n = mgsin\theta + F_a$

$F_n = 75\times 9.81 sin 3 + 25 = 63.506 N$

Power output

$P =F_n \times v$

$P = 63.506 \times 2 = 127.01 W$

b) average force can be calculate as

$F_n = mgsin\theta + F_a$

$F_n = 75 \times 9.81 sin 3 + 25$

F_n = 63.506 s

force of acceleration is f = ma

solving for acceleration

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

$a = \frac{63.506}{75}$

a = 0.846 m/s^2

we know acceleration is given as $a =\frac{v -u}{t}$

solving for time t

$t = \frac{v-u}{a}$

$t =\frac{10-0}{0.846}$

t = 11.82 s

yanalaym [24]

Answer: 2.75 1/sec

Explanation:

The only external force (neglecting gravity) acting on the puck, is the centripetal force, which. in this case, is represented by the tension in the string, so we can say:

T = mv² / r (1)

Our unknown, is the frequency at which the puck can go around the circle, which is the inverse of the period Tp.

By definition, a period is the time needed by the puck to complete one entire circle.

By definition also , angular velocity is the rate of change of the angle advanced, so we can express this way:

ω = ∆θ / ∆t

The angle advanced during one period, is exactly (by angle definition) 2 π radians.

So, we can always write the angular velocity, ω, as follows:

ω = 2π / Tp = 2πf

Now, there is a relationship between linear and angular velocity, that can be found applying simply the definition of velocity and of an angle too, as follows:

v = ∆s / ∆t = r ∆θ/∆t = ω r

Replacing in (1), we have:

T = mω2 r2 / r = m ω2r (2)

We have just found that ω= 2πf, so, replacing in (2) :

T = m (2π)2 f2 r

Solving for f:

f = 1/2π√(T/mr) = 1/2π 17.28 1/sec = 2.75 1/sec

liq [111]

Answer:

$2365.71\ \text{J/kg}^{\circ}\text{C}$

Explanation:

V = Voltage = 230 V

I = Current = 1.8 A

$\Delta T$ = Temperature change = $(40-12)^{\circ}\text{C}$

t = Time taken = 2 minutes

m = Mass of liquid = 750 g

c = Specific heat capacity of the liquid

Energy required to heat the water is equal to the heat released due to current passing

$mc\Delta T=VIt\\\Rightarrow c=\dfrac{VIt}{m\Delta T}\\\Rightarrow c=\dfrac{230\times 1.8\times 2\times 60}{0.75\times (40-12)}\\\Rightarrow c=2365.71\ \text{J/kg}^{\circ}\text{C}$

The specific heat capacity of the liquid is $2365.71\ \text{J/kg}^{\circ}\text{C}$
