Answer:
536,904 J/s
Explanation:
The energy output from motor is the input energy in the machine.
We know that efficiency is percentage energy ouput to energy input, and expressed as
Where n and E represent efficiency and energy respectively, subscripts o and i represent output and input respectively. Since for the machine we have the input energy then the output will be the product of efficiency and input energy
Energy output=0.6*1200 hp=720 hp
Converting hp to J/s we multiply by 745.7
Energy is 720*745.7=536,904 J/s
- Magnitude: 12.1 N.
- Direction: 17.0° to the 8 N force.
Refer to the diagram attached (created with GeoGebra). Consider the 5 N force in two directions: parallel to the 8 N force and normal to the 8 N force.
.
.
The sum of forces on each direction will be the resultant force on that direction:
- Resultant force parallel to the 8 N force:
.
- Resultant force normal to the 8 N force:
.
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant force.
(3 sig. fig.).
The size of the angle between the resultant force and the 8 N force can be found from the tangent value of the angle. Tangent of the angle:
.
Find the size of the angle using inverse tangent:
.
In other words, the resultant force is 17.0° relative to the 8 N force.
