A train moving at a constant speed on a surface inclined upward at 10.0° with the horizontal travels a distance of 400 meters in

If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:

Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s. 

So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs

a lamp or bulb is marked 12 volt 240 Watts how many joules does it consume in one hour and what is the current that passes throu
valkas [14]

Answer:

1 watt is 1 Joule per second. 240 watt would then be 240 joules per second. How many seconds are there in an hour? Current formula is P= IV , P is 240(not the power in an hour because the current is calculated in seconds), and V is 12V. Then you will get I, the current.

A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle
tatiyna

Answer:

a) 17.8 m/s

b) 28.3 m

Explanation:

Given:

angle A = 53.0°

sinA = 0.8

cosA = 0.6

width of the river,d = 40.0 m,

the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp h = 15.0 m,

The river itself was 100 m below the ramp H = 100 m,

(a) find speed v

vertical displacement

-h= vsinA\times t-gt^2/2

putting values h=15 m, v=0.8

-15 = 0.8vt - 4.9t^2  ............. (1)

horizontal displacement d = vcosA×t = 0.6×v ×t

so v×t = d/0.6 = 40/0.6

plug it into (1) and get

-15 = 0.8\times40/0.6 - 4.9t^2

solving for t we get

t = 3.734 s

also, v = (40/0.6)/t = 40/(0.6×3.734) =  17.8 m/s

(b) If his speed was only half the value found in (a), where did he land?

v = 17.8/2 = 8.9 m/s

vertical displacement = -H =v sinA t - gt^2/2

⇒ 4.9t^2 - 8.9\times0.8t - 100 = 0

t = 5.30 s

then

d =v×cosA×t = 8.9×0.6×5.30= 28.3 m
