The pulley system below uses a gasoline engine to raise a drill head up through a smooth drill pipe. The engine provides a const

polet [3.4K]

NB: The diagram of the pulley system is not shown but the information provided is sufficient to answer the question

Answer:

Power = 2702.56 W

Explanation:

Let the power consumed be P

Energy expended = E = mgh

height, h = 5 m

E = 80 * 9.8 * 5

E = 3920 J

$Power = \frac{Energy}{time}$

To calculate the time, t

From F = ma

F = 900 N

900 = 80 a

a = 900/80

a = 11.25 m/s²

From the equation of motion, $s = ut + 0.5at^{2}$

The drill head starts from rest, u = 0 m/s

$5 = 0 * t + (0.5*11.25*t^{2} )\\5 = 5.625t^{2}\\t^{2} = 5/5.625\\t^{2} = 0.889\\t = 0.943 s$

Power, P = E/t

P = 3920/0.0.943

P = 4157.79 W

But Efficiency, E = 0.65

P = 0.65 * 4157.79

Power = 2702.56 W

A hollow sphere of inner radius 8.82 cm and outer radius 9.91 cm floats half-submerged in a liquid of density 948.00 kg/m^3. (a)

kari74 [83]

Answer:

a) 0.568 kg

b) 474 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Inner radius = 8.82 cm = 0.0882 m

Outer radius = 9.91 cm = 0.0991 m

Density of the liquid = 948.00 Kg/m³

a) The volume of the sphere = $\frac{4\pi}{3}\times(0.0991^2-0.0882^2)$

volume of sphere = 0.0012 m³

also, volume of half sphere = $\frac{\textup{Total volume}}{\textup{2}}$

volume of half sphere = $\frac{\textup{0.0012}}{\textup{2}}$

Volume of half sphere =0.0006 m³

Now, from the Archimedes principle

Mass of the sphere = Weight of the volume of object submerged

Mass of the sphere = 0.0006× 948.00 = 0.568 kg

b) Now, density = $\frac{\textup{Mass}}{\textup{Volume}}$

Density = $\frac{\textup{0.568}}{\textup{0.0012}}$

Density = 474 kg/m³

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow (mush!). The dogs have average masses of 18.5 kg, and the

meriva

Answer:

a. $2.86 m/s^2$

b.1058 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of each dog,M=18.5 kg

Mass of sled with rider,m=250 kg

a.Average force,F=185 N

$\mu_s=0.14$

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

By Newton's second law

$8F-f=(8M+m)a$

$a=\frac{8F-f}{8M+m}=\frac{8(185)-(0.14)(9.8)(250)}{8(18.5)+250}$

$a=2.86 m/s^2$

b.By Newton's second law

$T=ma+\mu_s mg$

Substitute the values

$T=250\times 2.86+0.14(250)(9.8)=1058 N$

Hence, the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled=1058 N

If an object undergoes a change in momentum of 10 kg m/s in 3 s ,then the force acting on it is

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Force = 3.333 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Change in momentum = 10 Kgm/s

Time = 3 seconds

To find the force acting on it;

In Physics, the change in momentum of a physical object is equal to the impulse experienced by the physical object.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Force * time = mass * change in velocity

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = force * 3

Force = 10/3

Force = 3.333 Newton
