A woman does 236 J of work

Physics

1 answer:

mamaluj [8]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

work-done in dragging the trash= 236J

applied force= 18.9N

distance moved= 24.4m

Required

The angle of the applied force

Step two:

We know that work done is

WD= F * distance

<em>The work is the product of the horizontal component of the force and the distance. </em>

Horizontal force = 236 ÷ 24.4

= 9.67 N

Cos θ = Horizontal force ÷ Actual force

Cos θ = (236 ÷ 24.4) ÷ 18.9 = 236 ÷ 461.16

The angle is approximately 59˚

What average power must be supplied to the rope to generate sinusoidal waves that have amplitude 0.200 m and wavelength 0.600 m

pychu [463]

Complete question:

A taut rope has a mass of 0.123 kg and a length of 3.54 m. What average power must be supplied to the rope to generate sinusoidal waves that have amplitude 0.200 m and wavelength 0.600 m if the waves are to travel at 28.0 m/s ?

Answer:

The average power supplied to the rope to generate sinusoidal waves is 1676.159 watts.

Explanation:

Velocity = Frequency X wavelength

V = Fλ ⇒ F = V/λ

F = 28/0.6 = 46.67 Hz

Angular frequency (ω) = 2πF = 2π (46.67) = 93.34π rad/s

Average power supplied to the rope will be calculated as follows

$P_{avg} =\frac{1}{2} \mu \omega^2 A^2 V$

where;

ω is the angular frequency

A is the amplitude

V is the velocity

μ is mass per unit length = 0.123/3.54 = 0.0348 kg/m

$P_{avg} =\frac{1}{2} ( 0.0348)(93.34 \pi )^2 (0.2)^2 (28)$ = 1676.159 watts

The average power supplied to the rope to generate sinusoidal waves is 1676.159 watts.

A tire sits atop a ramp. When the tire is released, it rolls down the ramp. At the ramp's bottom, the speeding tire knocks down

k0ka [10]

Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the combination of both potential energy and kinetic

Mechanical energy can be divided as

1)kinetic energy, this energy vis regarded as the energy of motion

2) potential energy which is the stored energy of position.

Mechanical energy reffered to as

motion energy this energy is responsible for the movement of an object based on its position as well as motion.

Mechanical energy= U + K

Where U= potential energy

K= Kinectic energy

As the tire is sitting on top of a ramp, it posses "potential energy" as it is released and rolls down the ramp the potential is converted to Kinectic energy

(a) If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is 1.34 m/s² and subway stations are located

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is 32.9 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this, we list out the known and the unknown variables as follows

Maximum allowable acceleration = 1.34 m/s²

Distance between sttions = 806 m

Therefore from the equation of motion

v = ut + 0.5·×at²

Where v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

S = distance covered

t = time

a = acceleration

Also v² = u² + 2·a·S

where u is the initial velocity, which we can take as u = 0, then

v² = 2·1.34·S = 2.68S m²/s² then

Also the train has to decelerate from maximum speed to stop at the next tran station wherev = 0, thus v² = u² -2·1.34·Z, so u² = 2.68Z

since u² = 2.68S from the previous calculation, then for v = 0

2.68S = 2.68Z thus S = Z which and to reach the next subway station S + Z must be = 806 m, then S = 806 m ÷ 2 = 403 m

and v² = 2.68S m²/s² = 1080.04 m²/s²

v = 32.9 m/s

The maximum speed a subway train can attain between stations is 32.9 m/s
