Given Information:

Mass of elephant = m = 750 kg

Height = h = 14.3 m

time = t = 30 seconds

Required Information:

Power needed to lift elephant = P = ?

Answer:

Power needed to lift elephant ≈ 3507 watts

Explanation:

As we know power is given by

P = PE/t

Where PE is the potential energy and t is the time

Potential energy is given by

PE = mgh

Where m is the mass of elephant, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height to lift the elephant.

PE = 750*9.81*14.3

PE = 105212.25 Joules

Therefore, the required power to lift the elephant is

P = PE/t

P = 105212.25/30

P ≈ 3507 watts

A 0.0434-m3 container is initially evacuated. Then, 4.19 g of water is placed in the container, and, after some time, all of the

adell [148]

Answer:

P =18760.5 Pa

Explanation:

Given that

Volume ,V= 0.0434 m³

Mass ,m= 4.19 g = 0.00419 kg

T= 417 K

If we assume that water vapor is behaving like a ideal gas ,then we can use ideal gas equation

Ideal gas equation P V = m R T

p=Pressure ,V = Volume ,m =mass

T=Temperature ,R=Universal gas constant

Now by putting the values

P V = m R T

For water R= 0.466 KJ/kgK

P x 0.0434 = 0.00419 x 0.466 x 417

P =18.7605 KPa

P =18760.5 Pa

Therefore the answer is 18760.5 Pa

A rock dropped into a pond produces a wave that takes 11.3 s to reach the opposite shore, 26.5 m away. the distance between cons

Kay [80]

The wave takes 11.3 s to cover a distance of 26.5 m, so its speed is:
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{26.5 m}{11.3 s}=2.35 m/s$

The distance between two consecutive crests is 3 m, and this corresponds to the wavelength of the wave. To find its frequency, we can use the relationship between the speed v, the wavelength $\lambda$ and the frequency f:
$f= \frac{v}{\lambda}= \frac{2.35 m/s}{3 m}=0.78 Hz$

At the top of a giant swing on the gymnastics high bar, candy's velocity is 1 m/s, and she is 3.5 m high. if candy's mass is 50

Allushta [10]

The total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy:
$E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 +mgh$
where m=3.5 kg is Candy's mass, v=1 m/s is her velocity and h=3.5 m is her height. If we replace these numbers, we find the mechanical energy of the system:
$E= \frac{1}{2} (50 kg)(1m/s)^2 + (50 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.5 m)=1742 J =1.74 kJ$
