a 63 kg object needs to be lifted 7 meters in a matter of 5 seconds. approximately how much horsepower is required to achieve th
Natali [406]
Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the work per unit of time. The first step to solve this problem is by calculating the work which can be determined by the equation:

W = Fd

where:

F = force exerted = ma
d = distance traveled
m = mass of object
a = acceleration

Acceleration is equivalent to the gravitational constant (9.81 m/s^2) if the force exerted has a vertical direction such as lifting.

W = Fd = mad = 63(9.81)(7) = 4326.21 Joules

Now that we have work, we can calculate power.

P = W/t = 4325.21 J / 5 seconds = 865.242 J/s or watts

Convert watts to horsepower (1 hp = 745.7 watts)

P = 865.242 watts (1hp/745.7 watts) = 1.16 hp

A 66-kg fellow stands on a digital scale in an elevator that accelerates upwards from rest to 4.5 m/s in 2.00 s. show answer Inc
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of the fellow ( m ) = 66kg

acceleration of fellow a

v = u + at

4.5 = 0 + a x 2

a = 4.5 /2

= 2.25 m / s²

Net force acting on fellow in upward direction by the surface of  elevator

R - mg where R is reaction force of the surface of the elevator

Applying Newton's law of motion

R - mg = ma

R = m (g +a )

= 66 x ( 9.8 + 2 )

= 778.8 N

This will be the scale reading .

in the diagram below, two of the three rays used to find the image position are shown. which of the following best describes the
Crazy boy [7]

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

To find the position of the image when an object lies in front of lens, usually three rays are used. One incident ray passes through the focus and would be parallel to the axis after refraction from the lens. Second would just pass through the optical center. Third incident ray would be parallel to the axis and would refract from the lens and pass through the focus on the right hand side.  The three rays would be extended in both the directions and we would see where the three rays would intersect. That would be the position of the image.

Thus, the correct option is C.
