Answer:

12010

Explanation:

Given:

power time

4,370 25

4,420 22

4,150 26

To find: difference in energy used between the dryer that uses the greatest amount of energy and the dryer that uses the least amount

Solution:

Energy = power × time

For clothes dryer x:

energy = 4370 × 25 = 109250

For clothes dryer y:

energy = 4420 × 22 = 97240

For clothes dryer z:

energy = 4150 × 26 = 107900

Dryer x uses the greatest amount of energy and dryer y uses the least amount of energy.

Difference in energy used between the dryer that uses the greatest amount of energy and the dryer that uses the least amount = 109250 - 97240 = 12010

The block in the figure below has a mass of 5.1 kg and it rests on an incline of angle . You pull on the rope with a force F = 3

viktelen [127]

42.9°

Explanation:

Let's assume that the x-axis is aligned with the incline and the positive direction is up the incline. We can then apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

$x:\;\;\;\;F - mg\sin{\theta} = 0\;\;\;\;$

$\Rightarrow mg\sin{\theta} = F$

Note that the net force is zero because the block is moving with a constant speed when the angle of the incline is set at $\theta.$ Solving for the angle, we get

$\sin{\theta} = \dfrac{F}{mg}$

$\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{F}{mg}\right)$

$\;\;\;= \sin^{-1}\left[\dfrac{34\:\text{N}}{(5.1\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}\right]$

$\;\;\;=42.9°$

How much power should a braked 1.5t car have to be braked to reduce its speed from 30m / s to 10m / s in 5s?

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-120000 W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / time

P = ΔE / t

P = (½ mv₂² − ½ mv₁²) / t

P = m (v₂² − v₁²) / (2t)

Given m = 1.5 t = 1500 kg, v₂ = 10 m/s, v₁ = 30 m/s, and t = 5 s:

P = (1500 kg) ((10 m/s)² − (30 m/s)²) / (2 × 5 s)

P = -120000 W
