Answer:

Explanation:

This is the equation that defines the power consumed by an electrical circuit. It is normally defined as the product of the voltage applied (V) times the current (I) that runs through it. And in the case of a resistive circuit (resistors in the circuit totaling a certain resistance R), one can use Ohm's law to replace the voltage by the product of the current (I) times the resistance (R), obtaining then the square of the current:

$P=V*I=(I*R)*I=I^2 * R$

During the time interval from 0.0 to 10.0 s, the position vector of a car on a road is given by x(t) = a + bt + ct2, with a = 17

Juli2301 [7.4K]

The car’s velocity as a function of time is b + 2ct and the car’s average velocity during this interval is 0.9 m/s.

<h3>Average velocity of the car</h3>

The average velocity of the car is calculated as follows;

x(t) = a + bt + ct2

v = dx/dt

v(t) = b + 2ct

v(0) = -10.1 m/s + 2(1.1)(0) = -10.1 m/s

v(10) = -10.1 + 2(1.1)(10) = 11.9 m/s

<h3>Average velocity</h3>

V = ¹/₂[v(0) + v(10)]

V = ¹/₂ (-10.1 + 11.9 )

V = 0.9 m/s

Thus, the car’s velocity as a function of time is b + 2ct and the car’s average velocity during this interval is 0.9 m/s.

How much total energy is dissipated in 10. seconds

noname [10]

Answer : Total energy dissipated is 10 J

Explanation :

It is given that,

Time. t = 10 s

Resistance of the resistors, R = 4-ohm

Current, I = 0.5 A

Power used is given by :

$P=\dfrac{E}{t}$

Where

E is the energy dissipated.

So, E = P t.............(1)

Since, $P=I^2R$

So equation (1) becomes :

$E=I^2Rt$

$E=(0.5\ A)^2\times 4\Omega \times 10\ s$

$E=10\ J$

So, the correct option is (3)

Hence, this is the required solution.

In 0.60 seconds, a projectile goes from 0 to 610 m/s. What is the acceleration of the projectile?

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: $a=1016.66 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Acceleration $a$ is expressed in the following formula:

$a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{o}}{t}$

Where:

$V_{f}=610 m/s$ is the final velocity of the projectile

$V_{o}=0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the projectile

$t=0.6 s$ is the time

Solving:

$a=\frac{610 m/s-0 m/s}{0.6 s}$

$a=1016.66 m/s^{2}$ This is the acceleration of the projectile

A bicycle rider pushes a 13kg bicycle up a steep hill. the incline is 24 degree and the road is 275m long. the rider pushes the

Digiron [165]

Answer:

A. W = 6875.0 J.

B. W = -14264.6 J.

Explanation:

A. The work done by the rider can be calculated by using the following equation:

$W_{r} = |F_{r}|*|d|*cos(\theta_{1})$

Where:

$F_{r}$ : is the force done by the rider = 25 N

d: is the distance = 275 m

θ: is the angle between the applied force and the distance

Since the applied force is in the same direction of the motion, the angle is zero.

$W_{r} = |F_{r}|*|d|*cos(0) = 25 N*275 m = 6875.0 J$

Hence, the rider does a work of 6875.0 J on the bike.

B. The work done by the force of gravity on the bike is the following:

$W_{g} = |F_{g}|*|d|*cos(\theta_{2})$

The force of gravity is given by the weight of the bike.

$F_{g} = -mgsin(24)$

And the angle between the force of gravity and the direction of motion is 180°.

$W_{g} = |mgsin(24)|*|d|*cos(\theta_{2})$

$W_{g} = 13 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(24)*275 m*cos(180) = -14264.6 J$

The minus sign is because the force of gravity is in the opposite direction to the motion direction.

Therefore, the magnitude of the work done by the force of gravity on the bike is 14264.6 J.

I hope it helps you!
