Answer:
141.14098 secs
Explanation:
Time taken to see the lightning flash can be gotten from:
Velocity = distance/time
Time = distance/velocity
Time = (47 * 1000)/(3 * 10^8)
Time = 0.0001567 secs
Time taken to hear the thunder can be gotten from:
Velocity = distance/time
Time = distance/velocity
Time = (47 * 1000)/(333)
Time = 141.14114 secs
The time lapse between the lightning flash and the thunder will be:
141.14114 - 0. 0001567
= 141.14098 secs
I would rather be hit by the deflated ball because it wouldn't hurt as bad because it wouldn't have a lot of weight to hurt me in anyway
Answer:
A) B = 24 ft
B) H = 24.08 ft
C) M.A = 12.04
D) P = 13.7 lb
Explanation:
A)
Minimum allowable length of base of ramp can be found as follows:
Slope = H/B
where,
Slope = 1/12
H = Height of Ramp = 2 ft
B = Length of Base of Ramp = ?
Therefore,
1/12 = 2 ft/B
B = 2 ft * 12
<u>B = 24 ft</u>
B)
The length of the slope of ramp can be found by using pythagora's theorem:
L = √H² + B²
where,
H = Perpendicular = height = 2 ft
B = Base = Length of Base of Ramp = 24 ft
L = Hypotenuse = Length of Slope of Ramp = ?
Therefore,
H = √[(2 ft)² + (24 ft)²]
<u>H = 24.08 ft</u>
D)
The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is given by the following formula:
M.A = L/H
M.A = 24.08 ft/2 ft
<u>M.A = 12.04</u>
D)
Another general formula for Mechanical Advantage is:
M.A = W/P
where,
W = Ideal Load = 165 lb
P = Ideal Effort Force = ?
Therefore,
12.04 = 165 lb/P
P = 165 lb/12.04
<u>P = 13.7 lb</u>
Answer:
true
Explication:
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object, and the amount of force applied
Answer:
137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts
Explanation:
The formula for power is P= dhrg
Where P = Power in watts
d = density of water (1000 kg/m^3)
h = height in meters
r = flow rate in cubic meters per second,
g = acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s^2,
Plugging in the known values,
we get
P = 1000 kg/m^3 * 80 m * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2
P = 80000 kg/m^2 * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2
P = 14000000 kg m/s * 9.8 m/s^2
P = 137200000 kg m^2/s^3
P = 137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts
The above figure assumes 100% efficiency which is impossible. A good efficiency would be 90% so the actual power available would be close to 0.90 * 137200 = 123480 kilowatts
