vi=0, vf=80km/hr=22m/s, m=1.5x107kg, F = 7.5x105N.

a=F/m, t=(vf-vi)/a= (vf-vi)m/F = (22m/s)(1.5x107kg)/7.5x105N = 440 kg m/sN =  440 s or 7mins

A force of 10 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work W is done in stretching i
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

114.44 J

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

F = ke................. Equation 1

Where F = Force required to stretch the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.

make k the subject of the equation

k = F/e.............. Equation 2

Given: F = 10 lb = (10×4.45) N = 44.5 N, e = 4 in = (4×0.254) = 1.016 m.

Substitute into equation 2

k = 44.5/1.016

k = 43.799 N/m

Work done in stretching the 9 in beyond its natural length

W = 1/2ke²................. Equation 3

Given: e = 9 in = (9×0.254) = 2.286 m, k = 43.799 N/m

Substitute into equation 3

W = 1/2×43.799×2.286²

W = 114.44 J

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 680 atm if the density at the surface is 1030 kg/m3. Seawater has
Pie

Answer:

1060.41kg/m^3

Explanation:

Bulk modulus is defined as the relative change in the volume of a body produced by a unit of compressive acting uniformly over its surface:

B=\rho _o \frac{\bigtriangleup P }{\bigtriangleup \rho}

Hence the density of the seawater at a depth of 680atm is calculated as:-

\rho=\rho_o +\bigtriangleup \rho=\rho_o(1+\frac{\bigtriangleup P}{B})\\\\=1030 \times (1+ \frac{(680-1)\times10^5}{2.3\times 10^9})\\=1060.41kg/m^3

A wind generator, such as the one shown , uses the power of wind to generate electricity What do you think is happening inside t
sesenic [268]

Answer:

A wind turbine captures the wind, which then produces a renewable energy source. The wind makes the rotor spin; as the rotor spins, the movement of the blades drives a generator that creates energy. The motion of the blades turning is kinetic energy. It is this power that we convert into electricity.

A machine is rolling a metal cylinder under pressure. The radius of the cylinder is decreasing at a constant rate of 0.05 inches
Luden [163]
Yes, the volume of the cylinder will remain constant. As the radius decreases, the height will increase to make sure that the volume is kept the same.
We have been given a value of dr/dt and are required to find dh/dt
Because the volume is constant, we can plug it into the formula for the volume of the cylinder and rearrange it to make h the subject:
128 = πr²h
h = 128/πr²
Now we differentiate both sides:
dh/dr = -256/πr³
Applying the chain rule:
dh/dt = dh/dr x dr/dt
dh/dt = (-256/πr³) x -0.05
dh/dt = 64/5πr³; substituting the value of r
dh/dt = 64/5π(1.5)³
dh/dt = 1.21 in/sec
