A crane lifts a 6.500 N weight 10 m in 180 seconds. What power is used?

Power is work over time.

$P= \frac{W}{t}$

We can solve for work by using F*d

$W=F*d = (6.500N)(10m) = 65 J$

Now solve for power:

$P= \frac{(65J)}{180s} = 0.361W

P=0.361W$

Answer:

The force is $F= 46.25kN$

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the vertical axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_y =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 60^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 cos \ 30^o)$

$v_2$ is the is the speed of water at the nozzle which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_2 = \frac{R}{A_n}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(12*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_n$

$v_2 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (12*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 44.23 m/s$

$v_1$ is the is the speed of water at the pipe which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_1 = \frac{R}{A_p}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(30*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_p$

$v_1 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (30*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 7.07 m/s$

$\rho$ is he density of water with value $\rho =1000 kg /m^3$

Substituting values into the equation above

$F_ysin 60^o = 1000 (0.5) (44.23 -7.07 cos 30)$

$= 21.99kN$

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the horizontal axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_x =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 30^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 sin \ 30^o)$

Since The speed at both A and B nozzle are the same then $v_2$ remains the same

Substituting values

$F_x sin30^o =1000 (0.5) (44.23 - 7.07*sin30)$

=> $F_x = 40.69kN$

Hence the force acting on the flange bolts required to hold the nozzle in place is

$F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}$

$= \sqrt{40.69 ^2 + 21.99^2}$

$F= 46.25kN$

Kinetic energy is the energy of

Alina [70]

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.

The formula for kinetic energy is given as

KE = (0.5) m v²

where m = mass of object , v = speed of object.

an object having some speed and mass will have kinetic energy while an object at rest will not have any kinetic energy since the speed of object at rest is zero.

Since at rest speed is zero. an object has kinetic energy only when it is in motion.
