Answer:
<h2>E. 3.95kW</h2>
Explanation:
Power is defined as the rate of workdone.
Power = Workdone/time taken
Given Workdone = Force * distance
Power = Force * distance/time taken
Power = mgd/t (F = mg)
m = mass of the sand in kg
g = acceleration due to gravity in m/s²
d = vertical distance covered in metres
t = time taken in seconds
Given m = 2000kg, d = 12m, t = 1min = 60secs, g = 9.8m/s²
Power = 2000*9.8*12/60
Power = 3920Watts
Minimum rate of power that must be supplied to this machine is 3920Watts or 3.92kW
A dwarf planet is a small celestial body resembling a planet, but lacks necessary things to be a planet
Answer:
420m
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Time = 5minutes
Average speed = 1.4m/s
Unknown:
Distance covered = ?
Solution:
Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.
Mathematically;
Speed =
Distance = speed x time
Insert the parameters and solve;
Convert the time to seconds;
1 minute = 60s
5 minute = 5 x 60 = 300s
So,
Insert the parameters and find the distance;
Distance = 300 x 1.4 = 420m
