Answer:

It would take 16.7 s for the work to be done by the engine.

Explanation:

From the question, given: Power = 390.3 kW

                                           Work to be done = 6.5 x 10^{6} J

But, power and work done with respect to time, has a relationship of:

Power = \frac{work done}{time}

So that,

time = \frac{work done}{Power}

Thus,

time  = \frac{6.5*10^{6} }{390.3*10^{3} }

       = 16.6539

time = 16.7 s

Time required is 16.7 seconds.

Thus, it would take 16.7 s for the work to be done by the engine.

Oxana [17]
It is true because <span>A pyramid of biomass is a representation of the amount of energy contained in biomass, at different trophic levels for a given point in time . The amount of energy available to one trophic level is limited by the amount stored by the level below. Because energy is lost in the transfer from one level to the next, there is successively less total energy as you move up trophic levels. Tree is a base as it provides food and energy.</span>

A cup of coffee is sitting on a table in a train that is moving with a constant velocity. The coefficient of static friction bet
Vikki [24]

Answer:

a = 2.94 m/s²

Explanation:

In order for the cup not to slip, the unbalanced force on cup must be equal to the frictional force:

Unbalanced Force = Frictional Force

ma = μR = μW

ma = μmg

a = μg

where,

a = maximum acceleration for the cup not to slip = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

a = (0.3)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>a = 2.94 m/s²</u>
