You plan to take your hair blower to europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 v instead of the 120 v seen in the united

states. the blower puts out 1600 w at 120 v .

P = U × I
I = P / U = 1600W / 120V = 13.4A
P = 240V × 13.4A = 3216W

If your hair blower isnt rated for 220- 230V(this is the voltage in EU) you are most likely going to burn it.

An elevator ascends at a constant speed of 4 m/s, how much time is required for the elevator in order to travel 120 m upwards?

vlabodo [156]

We simply use the formula,

$velocity =\frac{distance}{time}$

Given, velocity = 4 m per s and distance = 120 m.

Substituting these values, we get

$4\ m/s =\frac{120\ m}{time}\\\\\ time=\frac{120\ m}{4\ m/s} = 30\ s$ .

Thus, required time for the elevator in order to travel 120 m upwards is 30 s.

How is energy conserved in a process of a heart beat

Westkost [7]

Explanation:

energy conservation and fatigue management -tiredness is a common symptom of a heart attack and although rest is important activity is also required to facilitate a return to health. an occupational therapist said energy conservation and fatigue management is techniques to be implemented throughout the day. to help clients achieve their goals

8. The legs of a young man are each 0.650 meters long. What is his maximum walking speed?

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

2.52 m/s

Explanation:

When the man takes a step, his foot is stationary while his body revolves around it. At the point when his body is directly above his foot, there will be no normal force at his maximum speed.

Sum of the forces in the radial direction:

∑F = ma

mg = m v² / r

g = v² / r

v = √(gr)

Given that r = 0.650 m:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 0.650 m)

v = 2.52 m/s

The phenomenon of vehicle "tripping" is investigated here. The sport-utility vehicle is sliding sideways with speed v1 and no an

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

$v_1 = 3.5 \ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the SUV is = 2140 kg

moment of inertia about G , i.e $I_G$ = 875 kg.m²

We know from the conservation of angular momentum that:

$H_1= H_2$

$mv_1 *0.765 = [I+m(0.765^2+0.895^2)] \omega_2$

$2140v_1*0.765 = [875+2140(0.765^2+0.895^2)] \omega_2$

$1637.1 v_1$ $= 3841.575 \omega_2$

$\omega_2 = \frac{1637.1 v_1}{3841.575}$

$\omega _2 = 0.4626 \ v_1$

From the conservation of energy as well;we have :

$T_2 +V_{2 \to 3} = T_3 \\ \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} I_A \omega_2^2 - mgh =0$

$[\frac{1}{2} [875+2140(0.765^2+0.895^2)](0.4262 \ v_1)^2 -2140(9.81)[\sqrt{0.76^2+0.895^2} -0.765]] =0$

$706.93 \ v_1^2 - 8657.49 =0$

$706.93 \ v_1^2 = 8657.49$

$v_1^2 = \frac{8657.49}{706.93 }$

$v_1 ^2 = 12.25$

$v_1 = \sqrt{ 12.25$

$v_1 = 3.5 \ m/s$

An apple falls from an apple tree growing on a 20° slope. The apple hits the ground with an impact velocity of 16.2 m/s straight

EleoNora [17]

Apple hits the surface with speed 16.2 m/s

The angle made by the apple velocity with normal to the incline surface is given as 20 degree

now the component of velocity which is parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the surface is given as

$v_{perpendicular} = v cos20$

$v_{parallel} = v sin20$

so here we have

$v_{parallel} = 16.2 sin20$

$v_{parallel} = 5.5 m/s$

<em>so its velocity along the incline plane will be 5.5 m/s</em>
