A porter can carry 40 bricks of 10 N load of each. He can carry up to 75m in 40 sec, calculate his power.

alexira [117]

Answer:

750W

Explanation:

40×10= 400N

work done= force × distance

=400 × 75

=30000 J

Power= work done/ time

= 30000 ÷ 40

= 750 W

What is the term that describes waves that require a medium through which to travel?

gladu [14]

Answer:

Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium. This means that they have to have some sort of matter to travel through. These waves travel when molecules in the medium collide with each other passing on energy. One example of a mechanical wave is sound.

A block with mass 0.5 kg is forced against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of 0.2 m. W

lianna [129]

Answer:

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081

Explanation:

We have given mass of the block m = 0.5 kg

The spring is compressed by length x = 0.2 m

Spring constant of the sprig k = 100 N/m

Blocks moves a horizontal distance of s = 1 m

Work done in stretching the spring is equal to $W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 100\times 0.2^2=2J$

This energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the block

And this kinetic energy must be equal to work done by the frictional force

So $\mu mg\times s=2$

$\mu\times 0.5\times 9.8\times 1=2$

$\mu =0.4081$

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081
