Answer: Power developed by her is <u><em>0.32 hp</em></u>

Explanation:

Work done , W= Force(F) X Displacement (d) in the direction of force

Thus work done , $W=Fd=110\times 4.0 ft-lbf = 440 ft-lbf$

Now 1.0 ft-lbf = 1.355 joules of energy

Therefore , work done, W= 440x 1.355 J = 596.2 J

Average Power , $P=\frac{work done(W)}{time (t)}$

=> $P=\frac{596.2}{2.5} watts = 238.5 watts$

We know 746 hp = 1.0 watts

=> $P=\frac{238.5}{746} hp=0.32 hp$

Thus average power developed by her is 0.32 hp

A circular loop of wire of area 10 cm^2 carries a current of 25 A. At a particular instant, the loop lies in the xy-plane and is

S_A_V [24]

The magnetic dipole moment of the current loop is 0.025 Am².

The magnetic torque on the loop is 2.5 x 10⁻⁴ Nm.

<h3>What is magnetic dipole moment?</h3>

The magnetic dipole moment of an object, is the measure of the object's tendency to align with a magnetic field.

Mathematically, magnetic dipole moment is given as;

μ = NIA

where;

N is number of turns of the loop
A is the area of the loop
I is the current flowing in the loop

μ = (1) x (25 A) x (0.001 m²)

μ = 0.025 Am²

The magnetic torque on the loop is calculated as follows;

τ = μB

where;

B is magnetic field strength

B = √(0.002² + 0.006² + 0.008²)

B = 0.01 T

τ = μB

τ = 0.025 Am² x 0.01 T

τ = 2.5 x 10⁻⁴ Nm

Thus, the magnetic dipole moment of the current loop is determined from the current and area of the loop while the magnetic torque on the loop is determined from the magnetic dipole moment.

A bomb of mass 6kg initially at rest explodes into two fragments of masses 4kg and2kg respectively. If the greater mass moves wi

Katen [24]

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s]

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

$P=m*v\\$

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

$P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s]$

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

$P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s]$

What holds the moon in place, orbiting around the Earth

AnnZ [28]

The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon's velocity. This means gravity makes the Moon accelerate all the time, even though its speed remains constant.
