Answer: The work is negative

Explanation: The work is defined as the movement done by a force.

In this case, becuse the motocycle is driving upward in a inclinated ramp, the force of gravity will pull downwards, in the oposite direction of wich the motocycle is moving, this means that the work is negative, this means that the force is oposing to the motion of the motocycle and the motocycle needs to cancel this negative work in order to move.

When a condenser discharges electricity, the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is proportional to the voltage in the c
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

460.52 s

Explanation:

Since the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is proportional to the voltage in the condenser, we have that

dV/dt ∝ V

dV/dt = kV

separating the variables, we have

dV/V = kdt

integrating both sides, we have

∫dV/V = ∫kdt

㏑(V/V₀) = kt

V/V₀ = e^{kt}

Since the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is -0.01 of the voltage dV/dt = -0.01V

Since dV/dt = kV

-0.01V = kV

k = -0.01

So, V/V₀ = e^{-0.01t}

V = V₀e^{-0.01t}

Given that the voltage decreases by 90 %, we have that the remaining voltage (100 % - 90%)V₀ = 10%V₀ = 0.1V₀

So, V = 0.1V₀

Thus

V = V₀e^{-0.01t}

0.1V₀ = V₀e^{-0.01t}

0.1V₀/V₀ = e^{-0.01t}

0.1 = e^{-0.01t}

to find the time, t it takes the voltage to decrease by 90%, we taking natural logarithm of both sides, we have

㏑(0.01) = -0.01t

So, t = ㏑(0.01)/-0.01

t = -4.6052/-0.01

t = 460.52 s

Kelli weighs 440 N, and she is sitting on a playground swing that hangs 0.41 m above the ground. Her mom pulls the swing back an
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial height from the ground = .41 m

Final height = 1m

Height by which Kelli was raised ( h )= .59 m

When she passes through the lowest point , she loses P E

= mgh

= 440 x .59

= 259.6 J

kinetic energy possessed by her

= 1/2 mv²

= .5 x (440/9.8) x 2²

= 89.8 J

Difference of energy is lost due to work by  air friction

work done by  friction = 89.8 - 259.6

= - 169.8 J

A house is lifted from its foundations onto a truck for relocation. The house is pulled upward by a net force of 2850 N. This fo
Gwar [14]

Answer:

m = 95000 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the house, F = 2850 N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 15 cm/s = 0.15 m/s

We need to find the mass of the house. Let the mass be m. We know that the net force is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration of the house.

So,

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2850\times 5}{(0.15-0)}\\\\m=95000\ kg

So, the mass of the house is equal to 95000 kg.
