Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for Power is

P = Work/time to do work and the equation for work is

Work = FΔx

We first need to find the amount of work done, then we can find the power it took to do that work.

W = 2000(9.8)(28) so

W = 550,000 N*m

Now we fill that into the power equation:

P=\frac{550000}{30} gives us

P = 18000 Watts. But we need kW, so we divide by 1000 to get

P = 18 kW of power.

Answer:

18.293 kilowatts

Explanation:

Given that, mass (m) = 2000 kg

Height (h) = 28m

Time(t) = 30 seconds

To find: power required in kilowatts

Now required work done will be m*g*h

= 2000*9.8*28=548800 newton

Now power required is given by (P) = work done /(time taken)

= 548800/30 = 18293.333 watts

= (18293.333 / 1000) kilowatts

= 18.293 kilowatts.

Musya8 [376]

Answer: 0.09 m

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration in terms of tangential speed is:

a_c=\frac{v^2_t}{r}

where r is the radius.

It is given that,

centripetal acceleration of the mouse, a_c=0.29 m/s^2

tangential speed , v_t=0.17m/s

Radius of salami is:

r =\frac{(0.17m/s)^2}{0.29 m/s^2}=0.09m

Thus, the radius of the salami is 0.09 m.

If an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 128 ​ft/second, then its height after t seconds is given by the follow
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity u= 128 ft/sec

Equation of height

h = 128t-32t^2....(I)

(a). We need to calculate the maximum height

Firstly we need to calculate the time

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=0

From equation (I)

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=128-64t

128-64t=0

t=\dfrac{128}{64}

t=2\ sec

Now, for maximum height

Put the value of t in equation (I)

h =128\times2-32\times4

h=128\ ft

(b). The number of seconds it takes the object to hit the ground.

We know that, when the object reaches ground the height becomes zero

128t-32t^2=0

t(128-32t)=0

128=32t

t=4\ sec

Hence, The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.

A weightlifter lifts a 1250-N barbell 2 m in 3 s.How much power was used to lift the barbell?
Vlad [161]

The power is 833.3 W

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the work done in lifting the barbell, which is equal to the change in gravitational potential energy of the barbell:

W=(mg)h

where

mg = 1250 N is the weight of the barbell

h = 2 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(1250)(2)=2500 J

Now we can calculate the power, which is equal to the work done per unit time:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W = 2500 J is the work done

t = 3 s is the time taken

Substituting,

P=\frac{2500}{3}=833.3 W
