One cycle of the power dissipated by a resistor ( R = 800 Ω R=800 Ω) is given by P ( t ) = 60 W , 0 ≤ t < 5.0 s P(t)=60 W, 0≤

OLga [1]

Answer:

42.5W

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must go back to the calculations of a weighted average based on the time elapsed thus,

$Power_{avg} = \frac{P_1(t_1)+P_2(t_2)}{t_1+t_2}$

We need to calculate the average power dissipated by the 800\Omega resistor.

Our values are given by:

$P(t)=60 W, 0\leq t$

$P(t)=25 W, 5.0\leq t$

Aplying the values to the equation we have:

$Power_{avg} = \frac{P_1(t_1)+P_2(t_2)}{t_1+t_2}$

$Power_{avg} = \frac{60(5-0)+25(10-5)}{(5-0)+(10-5)}$

$Power_{avg} = 42.5W$

A rocket of mass 1000kg uses 5kg of fuel and oxygen to produce exhaust gases ejected at 500m/s calculate the increase its veloci

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Approximately $\rm 2.5\; m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Let the increase in the rocket's velocity be $\Delta v$ . Let $v_0$ represent the initial velocity of the rocket. Note that for this question, the exact value of $v_0$ doesn't really matter.

The momentum of an object is equal to its mass times its velocity.

Mass of the rocket with the 5 kg of fuel: $1000$ .
Initial velocity of the rocket and the fuel: $v_0$ .
Hence the initial momentum of the rocket: $1000\,v_0$ .

Mass of the rocket without that 5 kg of fuel: $1000 - 5 = 995$ .
Final velocity of the rocket: $v_0 + \Delta v$ .
Hence the final momentum of the rocket: $995\,(v_0 + \Delta v)$ .

Mass of the 5 kg of fuel: $5$ .
Final velocity of the fuel: $v_0 - 500$ (assuming that the the 500 m/s in the question takes the rocket as its reference.)
Hence the final momentum of the fuel: $5\,(v_0 - 500)$ .

Momentum is conserved in an isolated system like the rocket and its fuel. That is:

Sum of initial momentum = Sum of final momentum.

$1000\,v_0 = 995\,(v_0 + \Delta v) + 5\,(v_0 - 500)$ .

Note that $1000\, v_0$ appears on both sides of the equation. These two terms could hence be eliminated.

$0 = 995\, \Delta v - 5\times 500$ .

$\displaystyle \Delta v = \frac{5}{995}\times 500 \approx \rm 2.5\; m \cdot s^{-1}$ .

Hence, the velocity of the rocket increased by around 2.5 m/s.
