Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered = 20m

Work done = 120J

Time = 15s

Unknown:

How much power does the Ox exerts = ?

Solution:

Power is the rate at which work is being done

Power = $\frac{Work done }{time}$

Power exerted by ox = $\frac{120}{15}$ = 8W

Water is discharged from a pipeline at a velocity v (in ft/sec) given by v = 1306p(1/2), where p is the pressure (in psi). If th

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$a=38.5 ft/sec^{2}$

Explanation:

Note that acceleration is the rate change of velocity i.e

$acceleration=\frac{change in velocity}{change in time}\\a=\frac{dv}{dt} \\$ .

Since the velocity is giving as a variable dependent on the pressure, we have to differentiate implicitly both side with respect to time,i.e

$\frac{dv}{dt}=1306*(1/2)p^{-1/2}\frac{dp}{dt} \\$

if we substitute value for the pressure as giving in the question and also since the rate change of pressure is 0.354psi/sec, we have

$a=653*0.1667*0.354\\$

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}=653(36)^{-1/2}*0.354\\ a=38.5 ft/sec^{2}$

A kid on a playground swing makes a complete to-and-fro swing each 2 seconds.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The frequency of the swing: 1/2 Hertz

The period is: 2 Seconds

Explanation:

The time the kid takes to make a complete to-and-fro swing = 2 seconds

The period, T, is the time it takes to make one complete cycle of an oscillatory motion, therefore, we have;

The frequency, f, is the number of cycles completed each second, therefore, we have;

The time for 1 cycle = 2 seconds

2 seconds = 1 cycle

Dividing both sides by 2 gives;

2/2 seconds = 1/2 cycles

2/2 = 1

In 2/2 = 1 seconds The number of cycles completed = 1/2 cycles

Therefore, the number of cycles completed per (one) second = 1/2 cycles

Therefore the frequency of the swing, f = 1/2 cycle/seconds = 1/2 Hertz

The period, T, is the time it takes to complete one to-and-fro swing which is one cycle which is 2 seconds

Therefore, the period is 2 Seconds.

Two resistors A and B are arranged in series in one branch of a parallel arrangement. The other branch contains a single resisto

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A and B are in series , Total resistance = Ra + Rb

This resistance is in parallel with single resistor C

Equivalent resistance Re = Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )]

Now this combination is in series in single resistance D .

Total resistance = Rd + Re

= Rd + { Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )] }
