Rate of work or Power done by the student can be computed with below formulas.
1. Formula for Work
Work = Force x distance
Force or F = Force applied to the object 
distance or d = displacement

2. Formula for Power
P = Work done / Time it was done or completed

Substituting the values we have,
Work or Work done = 150 N x 35 meters = 5250 J (unit of work).

Lastly computing for the rate we have,
Power or rate of work = 5250 J / 300 seconds (or 5 min) = 17.5 Joule/S or Watts

Answer is 17.5 watts

Kalea throws a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 13.7 m/s. How high h does the ball rise above its r
Trava [24]

Answer:

h = 9.57 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of Kalea, u = 13.7 m/s

At maximum height, v = 0

Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach its maximum point. It cane be calculated as :

v=u-gt

u=gt

t=\dfrac{u}{g}

t=\dfrac{13.7}{9.8}

t = 1.39 s

Let h is the height reached by the ball above its release point. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as :

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, a = -g

h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=13.7\times 1.39-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (1.39)^2

h = 9.57 meters

So, the height attained by the ball above its release point is 9.57 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A student throws a 130 g snowball at 6.5 m/s at the side of the schoolhouse, where it hits and sticks. What is the magnitude of
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

4.7 N

Explanation:

130 g = 0.13 kg

The momentum of the snowball when it's thrown at the wall is

p = mv = 0.13*6.5 = 0.845 kgm/s

Which is also the impulse. From here we can calculate the magnitude of the average force F knowing the duration of the collision is 0.18 s

p = F\Delta t

F*0.18 = 0.845

F = 0.845 / 0.18 = 4.7 N

You have a 2m long wire which you will make into a thin coil with N loops to generate a magnetic field of 3mT when the current i
Anni [7]

Answer:

<em>radius of the loop =  7.9 mm</em>

<em>number of turns N ≅ 399 turns</em>

Explanation:

length of wire L= 2 m

field strength B = 3 mT = 0.003 T

current I = 12 A

recall that field strength B = μnI

where n is the turn per unit length

vacuum permeability μ  = 4\pi *10^{-7}  T-m/A = 1.256 x 10^-6 T-m/A

imputing values, we have

0.003 = 1.256 x 10^−6 x n x 12

0.003 = 1.507 x 10^-5 x n

n = 199.07 turns per unit length

for a length of 2 m,

number of loop N = 2 x 199.07 = 398.14 ≅ <em>399 turns</em>

since  there are approximately 399 turns formed by the 2 m length of wire, it means that each loop is formed by 2/399 = 0.005 m of the wire.

this length is also equal to the circumference of each loop

the circumference of each loop = 2\pi r

0.005 = 2 x 3.142 x r

r = 0.005/6.284 = 7.9*10^{-4} m = 0.0079 m =<em> 7.9 mm</em>
