Answer:

776.6 w

1.04 hp

Explanation:

given:

Mass, m = 190kg

height change, h = 25m

time elapsed, t = 60 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

Potential energy required raising 190 kg of water to a height of 25m

= mgh

= 190 x 9.81 x 25

= 46,597.5 J

Power required in 60 s

= Energy required ÷ time elapsed

= 46,597.5 ÷ 60

= 776.6 Watts  (Use conversion 1 W = 0.00134102 hp)

= 776.6 w x 0.00134102 hp/w

= 1.04 hp

A planar loop consisting of seven turns of wire, each of which encloses 200 cm2, is oriented perpendicularly to a magnetic field
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The induced current is 0.084 A

Explanation:

the area given by the exercise is

A = 200 cm^2 = 200x10^-4 m^2

R = 5 Ω

N = 7 turns

The formula of the emf induced according to Faraday's law is equal to:

ε = (-N * dφ)/dt = (N*(b2-b1)*A)/dt

Replacing values:

ε = (7*(38 - 14) * (200x10^-4))/8x10^-3 = 0.42 V

the induced current is equal to:

I = ε /R = 0.42/5 = 0.084 A

How can groundwater flow, elevation can transport contaminates
Pavel [41]

Answer: it's under explanation

Explanation:Groundwater contamination occurs when man-made products such as gasoline, oil, road salts and chemicals get into the groundwater and cause it to become unsafe and unfit for human use. Materials from the land's surface can move through the soil and end up in the groundwater.

Bella makes the 2.5m distance to her food bowl in 9.1 seconds. What is her average velocity?
e-lub [12.9K]
  • Distance=2.5m
  • Time=9.1s

Average Velocity=Total Distance/Total Time

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2.5}{9.1}

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min. Find the
mylen [45]

Answer:

Angular acceleration, is 708.07\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the drill, \omega_i=0

After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min, final angular speed, \omega_f=28940\ rev/min=3030.58\ rad/s

We need to find the drill’s angular acceleration. It is given by the rate of change of angular velocity.

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{3030.58\ rad/s}{4.28\ s}\\\\\alpha =708.07\ rad/s^2

So, the drill's angular acceleration is 708.07\ rad/s^2.
