It takes me 12s to lift a box upward with 20 N of force to a height of 45m. What was my power output ?

Physics

Finger [1]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

75Watts

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time  = 12s

Force applied  = 20N

Height  = 45m

Unknown:

Power output  = ?

Solution:

Power is defined as the rate at which work is done.

 It is mathematically expressed as;

        Power  = \frac{work done}{time}

Work done  = force x distance  = 20 x 45  = 900J

        Power  = \frac{900}{12}   = 75Watts

The acceleration due to gravity near Earth ... Select one: a. varies inversely with the distance from the center of Earth. by. v
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

b. varies inversely with the square of the distance from the center of Earth.

Explanation:

Comparing the Newton's law of universal gravitation and second law of motion;

from Newton's second law of motion,

F = ma ............. 1

from New ton's law of universal gravitation,

F = \frac{GMm}{r^{2} } ........... 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

mg =  \frac{GMm}{r^{2} }

g = \frac{GM}{r^{2} }

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity near Earth, g, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the center of Earth.

Light traveling through air encounter a second medium which slows the light to 2.7 x 10^8. What is the index of the medium?
kozerog [31]

Answer:

1.11

Explanation:

The index of the medium can be calculated using below formula

V= c/ n ............eqn(1)

Where V= velocity of the light is reduced to while traveling through the second medium= 2.7 x 10^8 m/s

n= index of the medium

c= speed of light= 3 x 10^8 m/s

Substitute for the values in eqn(1)

2.7 x 10^8 = (3 x 10^8 m/s)/ n

Making " n" subject of the formula, we have

n= (3 x 10^8 )/(2.7 x 10^8)

n= 1.11

Hence, the index of the medium is 1.11

The electrical resistance of an element in a platinum resistance thermometer at 100°c, 0°c and room temperature are 75.00Ω, 63.0
Dominik [7]

Answer:

16.6 °C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Temperature at upper fixed point (Tᵤ) = 100 °C

Resistance at upper fixed point (Rᵤ) = 75 Ω

Temperature at lower fixed point (Tₗ) = 0 °C

Resistance at lower fixed point (Rₗ) = 63.00Ω

Resistance at room temperature (R) = 64.992 Ω

Room temperature (T) =?

T – Tₗ / Tᵤ – Tₗ = R – Rₗ / Rᵤ – Rₗ

T – 0 / 100 – 0 = 64.992 – 63  / 75 – 63

T / 100 = 1.992 / 12

Cross multiply

T × 12 = 100 × 1.992

T × 12 = 199.2

Divide both side by 12

T = 199.2 / 12

T = 16.6 °C

Thus, the room temperature is 16.6 °C

arlik [135]

Answer:

\ m/s

Explanation:

F = Force =

m = Mass of proton = 1.7\times 10^{-27\ kg

t = Time taken = 2\times 10^{-14}\ s

Acceleration is given by

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{}{1.7\times 10^{-27}}\\\Rightarrow a=\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=+\times 2\times 10^{-14}\\\Rightarrow v=+\times 2\times 10^{-14}\\\Rightarrow v=+\\\Rightarrow v=\ m/s

The velocity of the proton is \ m/s
