Answer:

Explanation:

Work done on the lever ( input energy ) = force applied x input distance

= 24 N x 2m = 48 J

Work done by the lever ( output energy ) = load x output distance

= 72 N x 0.5m = 36 J

efficiency = output energy / input energy

= 36 J  / 48 J

= 3 / 4 = .75

In percentage terms efficiency = 75 % .

Calculate the potentia energy of a car with a mass of 3800kg that is on a hill 110 meters above sea level? USE 10 instead of 9.8
Arada [10]

Potential energy (PE ) = m g h

Where:

m = mass = 3800 kg

g = acceleration due gravity = 10 m/s^2

h = heigth = 110 meters

Replacing:

PE = 3800 * 10 * 110 = 4,180,000 J

N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2
liberstina [14]

Answer:

2C

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.

Now I can actually edit my answer directly: I'm fairly sure I've got this wrong, and my mind has gone blank for how to do it, if someone could delete this that would be great and I'll think about it and see if I can figure it out!

4) A football player starts at the 40-yard line, and runs to the 25-yard line in 2 seconds.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

(a). Their speed during that run is 10 m/s.

(b). Their velocity is 6.86 m/s

(c). The final position is at 8.91 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

A football player starts at the 40-yard line, and runs to the 25-yard line in 2 seconds.

Suppose, the distance between 40 yard line and 25 yard line is 20 yard.

(a). We need to calculate their speed during that run

Using formula of speed

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

Where. d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{18.288}{2}

v=10\ m/sduring that run

(b). We need to calculate their velocity

Using formula of speed

v=\dfrac{\Delta d}{\Delta t}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{22.86-36.58}{2}

v=-6.86\ m/s

Negative sign shows the direction of motion.

(c). If they kept running at that velocity for another 1.3 seconds,

We need to calculate the final position

Using formula of position

d=vt

Put the value into the formula

d=6.86\times1.3

d=8.91\ m

Hence, (a). Their speed during that run is 10 m/s.

(b). Their velocity is 6.86 m/s

(c). The final position is at 8.91 m.
