Answer:

The metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of starling, m=89 g=89/1000=0.089 kg

1 kg=1000 g

Power, P=12 W

Speed, v=11 m/s

We have to find the metabolic power for starting flight.

We know that

Metabolic power for starting flight= $\frac{P}{m}$

Using the formula

Metabolic power for starting flight= $\frac{12}{0.089}$

Metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg

Hence, the metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car

juin [17]

Observer A is moving inside the train

so here observer A will not be able to see the change in position of train as he is standing in the same reference frame

So here as per observer A the train will remain at rest and its not moving at all

Observer B is standing on the platform so here it is a stationary reference frame which is outside the moving body

So here observer B will see the actual motion of train which is moving in forward direction away from the platform

Observer C is inside other train which is moving in opposite direction on parallel track. So as per observer C the train is coming nearer to him at faster speed then the actual speed because they are moving in opposite direction

So the distance between them will decrease at faster rate

Now as per Newton's II law

F = ma

Now if train apply the brakes the net force on it will be opposite to its motion

So we can say

- F = ma

$a = \frac{-F}{m}$

so here acceleration negative will show that train will get slower and its distance with respect to us is now increasing with less rate

It is not affected by the gravity because the gravity will cause the weight of train and this weight is always counterbalanced by normal force on the train

So there is no effect on train motion

A car has a mass of 1.00 × 103 kilograms, and it has an acceleration of 4.5 meters/second2. What is the net force on the car?

aksik [14]

ANSWER

C. $F=4.5 \times10^3$ . newtons

EXPLANATION

According to Newton's second law,

$F_{net}=ma$ , where

$m=1.00\times 10^3kg$ is the mass measured in kilograms.

and

$a=4.5ms^{2}$ is the acceleration in metres per second square.

We substitute these values to obtain,

$F=1.00\times10^3 \times 4.5$ .

We rearrange to get,

$F=1.00\times4.5 \times10^3$ .

We multiply out the first two numbers and leave our answer in standard form to get,

$F=4.5 \times10^3 N$ .

The correct answer is C

How do you calculate resistance with coulombs, time and J's?

Mars2501 [29]

Hey user

The energy E in joules (J) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V), times the electrical charge Q in coulombs (C):

E(J) = V(V) ×<span> Q</span>(C)

joule = volt × coulomb

J = V × C

Example

What is the energy in joules that is consumed in an electrical circuit with voltage supply of 15V and charge flow of 4 coulombs?

E = 15V × 4C = 60J

1. What is the name given to the total possibility of sound frequencies

exis [7]

Explanation:

1. The entire span of possible sound waves is called the acoustic spectrum. It is subdivided into infrasonic sounds, audible sounds, and ultrasonic sounds.

2. The difference between a musical note and another note at twice the frequency is called an octave.

3. Sound intensity varies with the inverse square of distance.
