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 2.7-kg ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s from the edge of a 45.0 m high cliff. At the instant the ball i
scoray [572]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

Point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance of 60 cm along a horizontal axis. The magnitude of q1 is 3 times the magnitu
Alex777 [14]

d = distance between the two point charges = 60 cm = 0.60 m

r = distance of the location of point "a" where the electric field is zero from charge q_{1} between the two charges.

q_{1} = magnitude of charge on one charge

q_{2} = magnitude of charge on other charge

q_{1} = 3 q_{2}

E_{1} = Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a"

E_{2} = Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a"


Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a" is given as

E_{1} = kq_{1} /r²

Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a" is given as

E_{2} = kq_{2} /(d-r)²

For the electric field to be zero at point "a"

E_{2} = E_{1}

kq_{2} /(d-r)² = kq_{1} /r²

q_{2} /(d-r)² = 3q_{2} /r²

1/(0.60 - r)² = 3 /r²

r = 0.38 m

r = 38 cm
