Answer:

P=9.58 W

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, and assuming friction force as zero:

F_m=m.a\\F_m=0.875kg*a

The acceleration is given by:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\a=\frac{0.685m/s}{21.5*10^{-3}s}\\\\a=31.9m/s^2

So the force exerted  by the motor is:

F_m=0.875kg*31.9m/s^2\\F_m=27.9N

The work done by the motor is given by:

W_m=F_m*d\\\\d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=\frac{1}{2}*31.9m/s^2*(21.5*10^{-3}s)^2\\\\d=7.37*10^{-3}m

W_m=27.9N*7.37*10^{-3}m\\W_m=0.206J

And finally, the power is given by:

P=\frac{W_m}{t}\\P=\frac{0.206J}{21.5*10^{-3}s}\\\\P=9.58W

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.
