A(n) 636 kg elevator starts from rest. It moves upward for 4.5 s with a constant acceleration until it reaches its cruising spee

d of 2.05 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the average power delivered by the elevator motor during this period. Answer in units of kW.

Answer:

The average power delivered by the elevator motor during this period is 6.686 kW.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the elevator, m = 636 kg

initial speed of the elevator, u = 0

time of motion, t = 4.5 s

final speed of the elevator, v = 2.05 m/s

The upward force of the elevator is calculated as;

F = m(a + g)

where;

m is mass of the elevator

a is the constant acceleration of the elevator

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

a = \frac{v-u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{2.05 -0}{4.5} \\\\a = 0.456 \ m/s^2

F = (636)(0.456 + 9.8)

F = (636)(10.256)

F = 6522.816 N

The average power delivered by the elevator is calculated as;

P_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} (Fv)\\\\P_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} (6522.816 \ \times \ 2.05)\\\\P_{avg} = 6685.89 \ W\\\\P_{avg} =  6.68589 \ kW\\\\P_{avg} =  6.686 \ k W

Therefore, the average power delivered by the elevator motor during this period is 6.686 kW.

Which of the following statements describes nucleons?
Yuliya22 [10]
The correct answer is D.

A nucleon<span> is one of either of the two types of subatomic particles (neutrons and protons) which are located in the nucleus of atoms.
</span>

The total number of nucleon in the nucleus of an atom gives you an idea about the mass of that atom. In fact, one may refer mass number as nucleon number.

Simply put, nucleons are the particles that make nucleus of an atom and are held up together inside the nucleus due to nuclear force.

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases
AlekseyPX
Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.

Fiora starts riding her bike at 18 mi/h. After a while, she slows down to 12 mi/h, and maintains that speed for the rest of the
lord [1]

Answer:

t = 2.5 hours

Explanation:

given,

speed of the bike for t time= 18 mi/h

final speed of the bike after t time = 12 mi/h

total distance, D = 69 miles

total time, T= 4.5 hour

time for which speed of the bike is 18 mi/h = ?

we know distance = speed x time

now,

18 x t + 12 (4.5 - t) = 69

6 t + 54 = 69

6 t = 15

t = 2.5 hours

The bike was at the speed of 18 mi/h for 2.5 hours.

The gravitational force between two objects (mass1 = 10kg, mass2 = 6kg) is measured when the objects are 12 centimeters apart. I
Yanka [14]
Since the new distance is 3 times the old distance,
the new force is (1/3²) = 1/9th of the old force.

That's kind-of Choice-D, but I really don't like the way choice-D is worded.
"9 times smaller" is really pretty meaningless.
