Romashka [77]3 years ago

Answer:

Conversion tables show:

1 m = 1.09361 yds

1 Lit = .26418 gal = 1.05672 qt     or 1 qt = .944632 Lit

1 lb = .45359 kg = 2.2046 Lbs / Kg

So X yds = X  m * 1.09361 yds / m = 1.09361 * X yds

Likewise X Lit  = X  qt  / 1.05672 qt/ Lit = X / 1.05672 Lit = .94632  X Lit

So X  Lbs =  X kg * 2.2046 Lbs / Kg = 2.2046 Lbs

Six dogs pull a two-person sled with a total mass of 220 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow i
irina [24]

Answer:

a) 2457J

b) 558W

c) 337N

Explanation:

Assuming dogs started from rest.

v=a*t\\t=\frac{a}{v}\\v=12\frac{km}{h}\frac{1000m}{km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=3.3m/s\\\\t=\frac{3.3m/s}{0.75m/s^2}\\t=4.4s

and the displacement is given by:

d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=7.3m

Using the energy conservation formula:

K_i+U_i+W_d+W_f=K_f+U_f

Because the motion started from rest the initial kinetic energy is zero, the motion occurred in-ground level so the gravitational energy is zero too.

the work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d*cos(180)\\W_f=0.08*220kg*9.8m/s^2*7.3m*(-1)\\W_f=-1259J

so:

W_d=\frac{1}{2}*220kg*(3.3m/s)^2+1259J\\W_d=2457J

The power is given by:

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\\P=\frac{2457J}{4.4s}\\\\P=558W

and the force exerted by the dogs:

W_d=F_d*d*cos(\theta)\\F_d=\frac{W_d}{d*cos(0)}\\\\F=\frac{2457J}{7.3m*(1)}\\\\F=337N

If the displacement of a horizontal mass-spring system was doubled, the elastic potential energy in the system would change by a
bixtya [17]

Answer:

K'=4K

Explanation:

The electric potential energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

Where

k is spring constant

x is compression or extension in the spring

If the displacement of a horizontal mass-spring system is doubled, x'= 2x

New elastic potential energy :

E'=\dfrac{1}{2}kx'^2\\\\E'=\dfrac{1}{2}k(2x)^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}k\times 4x^2\\\\K'=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\K'=4K

So, new elastic potential energy 4 times the initial elastic potential energy.

How could you increase the force advantage of a lever?Select one:a. Make the effort length longer.b. Make the effort length shor
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The ideal mechanical advantage of a lever (IMA) is given by:

IMA=\frac{Le}{Lr}

Where:

Le = Effort of the arm

Lr = Resistance arm.

Therefore, we can increase the force adventage by increasing the effort arm or reducing the load arm

Answer:

a. Make the effort length longer.
