Answer:

3.29 Watts

Explanation:

Given that

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Final velocity, v = 0.54 m/s

Change in time, Δt = 27 ms

Mass of the train, m = 610 g = 0.61 kg

Power of any object is given as

P = Work done / time

P = W / t

Work done in this question, W is

W = 1/2mv²

W = 1/2 * 0.61 * 0.54²

W = 305 * 0.2916

W = 0.0889 kgm²/s²

Plugging this value into the equation we'd stated earlier, we have

P = W / t

P = 0.0889 / 27*10^-3

P = 3.293 Watts

Therefore, the average power delivered to the train during its acceleration is 3.29 Watts

Answer:

The value  is  P  =3.294 \  W

Explanation:

From the question we are that

     The velocity  v  =  0.540  \  m/s

      The  time taken is  t =  27.0 ms  = 27.0 *10^{-3} \ s

     The  total mass of the train is  m  =  610 \ g  =  0.610 \ kg

Generally the average power delivered is mathematically represented as

     P  =\frac{KE }{t}    

     P  =\frac{  \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  v^2 }{t}    

=>  P  =\frac{  \frac{1}{2}  *  0.610   *   0.540 ^2 }{ 27.0 *10^{-3}}    

=>  P  =3.294 \  W

An object at rest cannot remain at rest unless which of the following holds?View Available Hint(s)An object at rest cannot remai
Leni [432]

Answer:

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

Explanation:

In order to analyze the statements of this problem we propose your solution.

First let's look at Newton's first, which stable that every object is at rest or with constant speed unless something takes it out of this state (acceleration)

Now let's look at the second postulate, which says that force is related to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration.

As a result of these two laws, for a body is a constant velocity the summation force on it must be zero.

Now we can analyze the statements given.

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

False. If the force is different from zero, there is acceleration that changes the speeds

False. There may be forces, but the sum of them must be zero

False. If a force acts, the acceleration is different from zero and the speed changes

As an intern at an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel for rotation about an axis
klio [65]

Hi there!

We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.

Use the kinematic equation:

d = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

The block starts from rest, so:

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\12 = \frac{1}{2}a(4^2)\\\\\frac{24}{16} = a = 1.5 m/s^2

Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:

F = ma = m_bg - T

mb = mass of the block

T = tension of string

Solve for tension:

T = m_bg - ma = 8.2(9.8) - 8.2(1.5) = 68.06 N

Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:

\Sigma \tau = rF\\\\\Sigma\tau = rT

Rewrite:

I\alpha = rT

We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:

\alpha = a/r\\\\\alpha = 1.5/.42= 3.57 rad/sec^2

Now, plug in the values into the equation:

I(3.57) = (0.42)(68.06)\\\\I = (0.42)(68.06)/(3.57) = \boxed{8.00 kgm^2}

AM radio signals have frequencies between 550 kHz and 1600 kHz (kilohertz) and travel with a speed of 3.0Ã108m/s. What are the w
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of these signals is as follow:

  • Wavelength of 550 kHz is 545.45 m
  • Wavelength of 1600 kHz is 187.5 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency = 550 kHz & 1600 kHz

Velocity = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

As we know that frequency is expressed by the following equation:

  • Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength ---- (1)

For 550 kHz:

The equation can be rearranged as

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (550 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 545.45 m

For 1600 kHz:

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1600 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 187.5 m
