Answer:
<em>The time interval required to lift the spacecraft to this specified height is 123.94 seconds</em>
Explanation:
Height through which the spacecraft is to be lifted = 32.0 m
Mass of the spacecraft = 260.0 kg
Four crew member each pull with a power of 135 W
18.0% of the mechanical energy is lost to friction.
work done in this situation is proportional to the mechanical energy used to move the spacecraft up
work done = (weight of spacecraft) x (the height through which it is lifted)
but the weight of spacecraft = mg
where m is the mass,
and g is acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s
weight of spacecraft = 260 x 9.81 = 2550.6 N
work done on the space craft = weight x height
==> work = 2550.6 x 32 = 81619.2 J
this is equal to the mechanical energy delivered to the system
18.0% of this mechanical energy delivered to the pulley is lost to friction.
this means that
0.18 x 81619.2 = <em>14691.456 J </em> is lost to friction.
Total useful mechanical energy = 81619.2 J - 14691.456 J = 66927.74<em> J</em>
Total power delivered by the crew to do this work = 135 x 4 = 540 W
But we know tat power is the rate at which work is done i.e
where p is the power
where w is the useful work done
t is the time taken to do this work
imputing values, we'll have
540 = 66927.74/t
t = 66927.74/540
time taken t = <em>123.94 seconds</em>
The magnitude and direction of half of the given vector A is 1.25 m east.
The given parameters;
- <em>magnitude of vector A = 2.5 m east</em>
A vector can be described with both magnitude and direction. The magnitude of the vector is the scalar or numeric representation of the vector.
When the scalar representation has direction, we term the quantity a vector quantity.
The magnitude of half of the given vector is calculated as follows;
Thus, the magnitude and direction of half of the given vector A is 1.25 m east.
