How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 10 m in 4 s?

Physics
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

500 watts

Explanation:

Recall that the definition of power is the amount of energy delivered per unit of time.

In our case, the energy delivered is potential energy which we can estimate as the product of the weight of the object times the distance it is lifted above ground:

200 N x 10 m = 2000  Nm

then the power is the quotient of this potential energy divided the time it took to lift the object to that position:

Power = 2000 / 4   Nm/s = 500 Nm/s = 500 watts

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

A poker that will effectively and safely function to move pieces of coal or logs in a burning fire must be fireproof itself. Hence, to be as safe as possible, such <u>poker should be made from a material that is fireproof</u> and that does not conduct a lot of heat. Otherwise, the poker will catch fire/becomes too hot during the course of usage.

Which of Newton's laws explains why satellites need very little fuel to stay in oribit?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Sattelites don't need any fuel to stay in orbit. The applicable law is...."objects in motion tend to stay in motion". Having reached orbital velocity, any such object is essentially "falling" around the earth. Since there is no (or at least very little) friction in the vacuum of space, the object does not slow.... It simply continues.


Sattelites in "low" earth orbit do encounter some friction from the very thin upper atmosphere, and they will eventually "decay".

Explain why a ball thrown in space could keep moving forever, while a ball thrown here on Earth will come to a stop.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

In space there is no air resistance. on earth there is

in space there is no opposite forces acting on stopping the ball, so if you throw it it will go on forever.

on earth there is air resistance and gravity, this will pull the ball towards the ground and slow it down.

A 5cm tall object is placed 4cm in front of a converging lens that has a focal length of 8cm. Where is the image located in ____
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

a. -8 cm

Explanation:

d_{o} = distance of the object = 4 cm

d_{i} = distance of the image = ?

f = focal length of the converging lens  = 8 cm

using the lens equation

\frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{8}

d_{i} = - 8 cm

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.66 m, the pendulum bob has a mass of 310 grams, and it is released at an angle of 12 degree
lina2011 [118]
A) the periodic time is given by the equation;
 T= 2π√(L/g)
For the frequency will be obtained by 1/T (Hz)
T = 2 × 3.14 √ (0.66/9.81)
   = 6.28 × √0.0673
    = 1.6289 Seconds
Frequency = 1/T = f = 1/1.6289
 thus; frequency = 0.614 Hz

b)  The vertical distance, the height is given by
 h= 0.66 cos 12
 h = 0.65 m
Vertical fall at the lowest point = 0.66 - 0.65 = 0.01 m
Applying conservation of energy
energy lost (MgΔh) = KE gained (1/2mv²)
 mgh = 1/2mv²
  v² = 2gΔh = 2×9.81 × 0.01 
                   = 0.1962
v = 0.443 m/s

c) total energy = KE + GPE = KE when GPE is equal to zero (at the lowest point possible)
Thus total energy is equal to;
E = 1/2mv²
   = 1/2 × 0.310 × 0.443²
   = 0.0304 J
