Answer:

250 N ( Newtons)

Explanation:

mass X acceleration = F net or in this case Force

kg X m/s/s = N

From second law of motion, we have,

F = ma

So, F = 50kg × 5m/s^2 = 250 kg m s^-2 = 250 N

An electric drill rated at 400 W is connected to a 240V power line. How much current does it draw?

disa [49]

Answer:

1.67 A

Explanation:

Given that,

→ Power (P) = 400 W

→ Potential difference (V) = 240 V

→ Current (I) = ?

The amount of current drawn will be,

→ P = V × I

→ I = P/V

→ I = 400/240

→ I = 1.66666666667

→ [ I = 1.67 A ]

Hence, the current drawn 1.67 A.

A harmonic wave on a string with a mass per unit length of 0.050 kg/m and a tension of 60 N has an amplitude of 5.0 cm. Each sec

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Power of the string wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass per unit length is 0.050 kg/m

Tension in the string T = 60 N

Amplitude of the wave A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Frequency f = 8 Hz

So angular frequency $\omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 8=50.24rad/sec$

Velocity of the string wave is equal to $v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}=\sqrt{\frac{60}{0.050}}=34.641m/sec$

Power of wave propagation is equal to $P=\frac{1}{2}\mu \omega ^2vA^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.050\times 50.24^2\times 34.641\times 0.05^2=5.464watt$

So power of the wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

We see a full moon by reflected sunlight. How much earlier did the light that enters our eye leave the sun? the earth-moon and e

Tju [1.3M]

The time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be 8.4 minutes.

To find the answer, we need to know about the distance travelled by light.

<h3>How to find the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth?</h3>

So, in order to solve this problem, we must first know how far the moon is from Earth and how far the Sun is from the moon.
These distances are given as 3.8×10^5 km (Earth-Moon) and 1.5×10^8 km (Sun- Earth).
Since the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth during a full moon, the light's distance traveled equals,

$d=(1.5*10^8km)+2(3.8*10^5km)=1.51*10^8km=1.51*10^{11}m$

As we know that light travels at a speed of 300,000 km per second. then, the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be,

$t=\frac{1.51*10^{11}}{3*10^8}=503.33 s\\t=\frac{503.33}{60}=8.4min$
