How do the units of work and power compare?

Physics
1 answer:
ki77a [65]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

W = Fd, where F is force and d is displacement

Unit of work done :

The SI unit of force is Newton (N) and that of displacement is meter (m). So, the unit of work done is N-m. It is call Joule. It means that the unit of work done is Joule.

Power is given by rate at which the work is done. It is given by :

P = W/t, W is work done and t is time

Unit of power:

Unit of work is Joule (J) and that of time is second (s). It means that the unit of power is Watt and it is equal to Joule/second

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The unit for work is a joule. The unit for power is a watt, which is a joule per second".

Answer:

1. a) 72 N.

2. a) 2 m/s².

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Mass = 90kg

Acceleration = 0.8 m/s²

To find the force;

Force = mass * acceleration

Force = 90 * 0.8

Force = 72 Newton.

2. Mass = 50kg

Force = 100N

To find the magnitude of acceleration;

Acceleration = force/mass

Acceleration = 100/50

Acceleration = 2 m/s²

A ball is launched with initial speed v from ground level up a frictionless slope (This means the ball slides up the slope witho
amid [387]

Answer:

hmax = 1/2 · v²/g

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.

KE = PE

Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the ball

v = velocity.

The potential energy is calculated as follows:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of the ball.

g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).

h = height.

At  the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:

PE = KE

m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²

Solving  for hmax:

hmax = 1/2 · v² / g

An hydrogen molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms whose total mass is 3.3×10−27 kg and whose moment of inertia about an axis p
dlinn [17]

Answer:

6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m

Explanation:

I = Moment of inertia = 4\times 10^{-48}\ kg m^2

m = Mass of two atoms = 2m = 3.3\times 10^{-27}\ kg

r  = distance between axis and rotation mass

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

I=mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=2mr^2\\\Rightarrow 4\times 10^{-48}=3.3\times 10^{-27}\times r^2\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 10^{-48}}{3.3\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow r=3.48155\times 10^{-11}\ m

The distance between the atoms will be two times the distance between axis and rotation mass.

d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.48155\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow d=6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m

Therefore, the distance between the two atoms is 6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m
