Answer:

c) a Windmill

Explanation:

A lawn mower may have a two stroke or a 4 stroke internal combustion engine.

Wind mill is a device that runs with wind. When wind blows, wings of the wind mill rotate. Wind mills are used to generate electricity. It is a renewable source of energy that requires large farms or open space for their establishment and maintenance.

In a cannon gun powder is ignited , not with the help of an engine , but a different method for its ignition.

A mass of 267 g is attached to a spring and set into simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.176 s. If the total energy of the

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

(a) 7.1 m /sec

(b) 339.9 N/m

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 267 gram = 0.267 kg

Time period T = 0.176 sec

Total energy of the oscillating system = 6.74 J

We know that energy is given by

(a) $Ke=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$

$6.74=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.267\times v_{max}^2$

$v_{max}=7.1m/sec$

(b) Now $\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{0.176}=35.681rad/sec$

We know that $\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

$35.68=\sqrt{\frac{k}{0.267}}$

$k=339.9N/m$

$E=\frac{1}{2}KA^2$

$6.74=\frac{1}{2}\times 339.9\times A^2$

$A=19.91cm$

A loaded 500 kg sled is traveling on smooth horizontal snow at 5 m/s when it suddenly comes to a rough region. The region is 10

sergejj [24]

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

Change of Kinetic Energy to Friction Wok

∆KE = W

½ x m x (v(5)² - v(3)²) = f x d

½ x 500 x (5² - 3²) = f x 10

250 x (25 - 9) = f x 10

25 x 16 = f

f = 400 N

A jet with mass m = 90000.0 kg jet accelerates down the runway for takeoff at 1.6 m/s2.

leva [86]

This question requires the use of the equation of motion:
v = u + at [v is final velocity (0), u is initial velocity (24), a is acceleration, t is time (13)]
to calculate the acceleration. This can then be multiplied by the mass of the plane to obtain the net force via:
F = ma (F is force, m is mass, a is acceleration)
First, we calculate the acceleration:
0 = 24 + 13(a)
a = -24/13 m/s^2
The force is then:
F = 90000 * (-24/13)
F = -1.66*10^5 Newtons
The negative sign indicates that the force and acceleration are in the opposite direction as the velocity (since we took velocity to be positive)
