a) What is the average useful power output of a person who does6.00×10^6Jof useful work in 8.00 h? (b) Working at this rate, how
NARA [144]

Answer:

208.33 W

141.26626 seconds

Explanation:

E = Energy = 6\times 10^6\ J

t = Time taken = 8 h

m = Mass = 2000 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of platform = 1.5 m

Power is obtained when we divide energy by time

P=\frac{E}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{6\times 10^6}{8\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow P=208.33\ W

The average useful power output of the person is 208.33 W

The energy in the next part would be the potential energy

The time taken would be

t=\frac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{mgh}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2000\times 9.81\times 1.5}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=141.26626\ s

The time taken to lift the load is 141.26626 seconds

Exactly one pound of bread dough is placed in a baking tin. the dough is cooked in an oven at 350 °f releasing a wonderful aroma
Sladkaya [172]
The mass of the baked loaf will be less than the original dough. In making dough for bread, we have ingredients that are liquid such as water, melted butter, food flavoring, etc. All of this liquid ingredients mixed on the dough will definitely turn into vapor. This vapor is responsible for releasing of the aroma of the freshly baked bread.

The average density of the body of a fish is 1080 kg/m3. To keep from sinking, the fish increases its volumeby inflating an inte
Dimas [21]

Answer:

f = 8 %

Explanation:

given,

density of body of fish = 1080 kg/m³

density of air = 1.2 Kg/m³

density of water = 1000 kg/m²

to protect the fish from sinking volume should increased by the factor f

density of fish + density of water x increase factor = volume changes in water                                                    

1080 +f x 1.2 =(1 + f ) x 1000                

1080 + f x 1.2 = 1000 + 1000 f      

998.8 f = 80                                  

f = 0.0800                            

f = 8 %                                        

the volume increase factor of fish will be equal to f = 8 %

A projectile is shot on level ground with a
erastova [34]

Answer:

time rising = 34 / 9.8 = 3.47 sec

total time in air = 2 * 3.47 sec = 6.94 sec

(time rising must equal time falling)

R = 17 m/s * 6.94 s = 118 m

Can also use range formula

R = v^2 sin (2 theta) / g

tan theta = 34 / 17 = 2

theta = 63.4 deg

2 theta = 126.9 deg

sin 126.9 = .8

v^2 = 17^2 + 34^2 = 1445 m^2/s^2

R = 1445 * .8 / 9.8 = 118 m    agreeing with answer found above
