Answer:

The output power the weightlifter is 2916.67 W.

Explanation:

Given;

weight lifted, W = 700 N

height the weight is lifted, h = 2.5 m

time taken to lift the weight, t = 0.60 s

The output power the weightlifter is calculated as;

Power = Energy applied / time taken

Energy applied = weight lifted x height the weight is lifted

Energy applied = 700 x 2.5

Energy applied = 1750 J

Power = 1750 / 0.6

Power = 2916.67 J/s = 2916.67 W.

Therefore, the output power the weightlifter is 2916.67 W.

A box is being pulled to the right. What is the direction of the gravitational force?
lapo4ka [179]

The correct answer to the question is vertically downward i.e towards the centre of earth.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the box is pulled to the right.

Hence, the direction of the applied force is towards right.

We are asked to determine the direction of the gravitational force that acts on the body.

Before answering this question, first we gave to understand the gravitational force of earth.

Any body present on the surface of earth is attracted with the force of gravity of earth ( gravitational force ) towards its centre.  It is equivalent to the weight of the body.  

The force of gravity is always directed towards the centre of earth irrespective of the nature of applied force.

Hence, the direction of the gravitational force which acts on the box is vertically downward.

A chamber fitted with a piston contains 1.90 mol of an ideal gas. Part A The piston is slowly moved to decrease the chamber volu
yarga [219]

Answer:

The work done is 5136.88 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

n = 1.90 mol

Temperature = 296 K

If the initial volume is V then the final volume will be V/3.

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

W=nRT\ ln(\dfrac{V_{f}}{V_{i}})

Put the value into the formula

W=1.90\times8.314\times296\ ln(\dfrac{\dfrac{V}{3}}{V})

W=1.90\times8.314\times296\ ln(\dfrac{1}{3})

W=−5136.88\ J

The Work done on the system.

Hence, The work done is 5136.88 J.

6A certain load and set of slings create a 20-degree angle between the load and each sling leg. Using a spreader for the same li
Otrada [13]

Solution:

The angle between the sling and the load is 20^{\circ}

So the  tension in each sling can be calculated as

Sin \theta = Mg => T = \frac{Mg}{2Sin\theta}

Sin \theta=> \frac{Mg}{2Sin 20^{\circ}}

Where    

M is the mass of the load

The Horizontal reaction on the sling will be inward.

After using the spreader, the new angle between sling and load is 60^{\circ}, the tension in the sling will be  

T= \frac{Mg}{2 Sin 60^{\circ}} = \frac{Mg}{2 Sin 20^{\circ}}

The tension will be same as before in the sling move away through the spreader at an angle more than 90 degree the horizontal force will act opposite and will be outward

When its 75 kW (100 hp) engine is generating full power, a small single-engine airplane with mass 700 kg gains altitude at a rat
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

343/1500

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the product force and velocity. The S.I unit of power is Watt (w).

From the question,

P' = mg×v................. Equation 1

Where P' = power used to gain an altitude, m = mass of the engine, g = acceleration due to gravity of the engine, v = velocity of the engine.

Given: m = 700 kg, v = 2.5 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

P' = 700(2.5)(9.8)

P' = 17150 W.

If the full power generated by the engine = 75000 W

The fraction of the engine power used to make the climb = 17150/75000

= 343/1500
