If 270 watts of power is used in 42 seconds, how much work was done<br>​
navik [9.2K]

Answer: W = 11340J

Explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

So this is the Formula: Power = Work / Time.

<u>Step 1:</u><em><u> Find the Formula</u></em>

P = W / T

<em><u> </u></em>

<u>Step 2: </u><u><em>Make W the subject of the equation.</em></u>

W = PT

<u>Step 3:</u><u> </u><u><em>Given.</em></u>

P = 270 Watts, T = 42 seconds

<u>Step 4:</u><u><em> Substitute these values into equation 2 .</em></u>

W = 270(42)

<u>Step 5:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify.</em></u>

W = 11340J

The amount of work done was 11340.

~I hope I helped you! :)~

<span>She trips and drops the spare tire of mass = m = 10.0 kg, </span>

<span>The tire rolls down the hill with an intial speed = u = 2.00 m/s. </span>

<span>The height of top of the next hill = h = 5.00 m </span>

<span>Initial total mechanical energy =PE+KE=mgH+(1/2)mu^2 </span>

A 1.00-kg mass is attatched to a string 1.0m long and completes a horizontal circle in 0.25s. What is the centripetal accelerati
liraira [26]

-- The string is 1 m long.  That's the radius of the circle that the mass is
traveling in.  The circumference of the circle is  (π) x (2R) = 2π meters .

-- The speed of the mass is (2π meters) / (0.25 sec) = 8π m/s .

-- Centripetal acceleration is  V²/R = (8π m/s)² / (1 m) = 64π^2 m/s²

-- Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (1kg) x (64π^2 m/s²) =

                                                         64π^2 kg-m/s² = 64π^2 N = about <span>631.7 N .

</span>
That's it.  It takes roughly a 142-pound pull on the string to keep
1 kilogram revolving at a 1-meter radius 4 times a second !<span> 
</span>
If you eased up on the string, the kilogram could keep revolving
in the same circle, but not as fast.

You also need to be very careful with this experiment, and use a string
that can hold up to a couple hundred pounds of tension without snapping. 
If you've got that thing spinning at 4 times per second and the string breaks,
you've suddenly got a wild kilogram flying away from the circle in a straight
line, at 8π meters per second ... about 56 miles per hour !  This could definitely
be hazardous to the health of anybody who's been watching you and wondering
what you're doing.
