A motor is used to operate a lift. There is a man in the lift. The input power of the motor is 6200 watts. The lift and the man

have a total mass of 580 kg. The lift moves up a distance of 12 m in 15 s. Calculate the tension in the cable when the lift is moving at constant speed.

Answer: 8500 N

Explanation:

You are given that the input power of the motor is 6200 watts

Since the man is in the lift, and the lift and the man have a total mass of 580 kg. The power 6200 watt is responsible to move up the lift and the man. Where power is the rate at which work is done. That is

Power = workdone/ time

But workdone = force × distance

Substitute that in power formula

Power = force × distance/time

But distance/time = velocity

Therefore, power is the product of force and velocity. That is,

P = FV

If the lift moves up a distance of 12 m in 15 s, then,

Velocity V = 12/15 = 0.8 m/s

Substitutes V and P into the power formula

6200 = F × 0.8

F = 6200/0.8

F = 8500 N

The calculated force is equal to the tension in the cable when the lift is moving at a constant speed.

Therefore, the tension in the cable is equal to 8500 N

Answer:

<u>Question 2</u>

<u>Part (a)</u>

Chlorine:  type of compound = chloride

Oxygen:  type of compound = oxide

<u>Part (b)</u>

The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form rust.

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms joined to one oxygen atom:  Di-hydrogen oxide.

<u>Question 3</u>

This circuit is in parallel.

The current in a parallel circuit splits into different branches then combines again before it goes back into the supply.

We are told that A₁ = 0.8 A

As the lamps have <u>equal resistance</u>, the current splits equally:

A₂ = 0.4 A

A₃ = 0.4 A

Then combines again:

A₄ = 0.8 A

Three point charges, two positive and one negative, each having a magnitude of 20 C are placed at the vertices of an equilateral
Daniel [21]

The resultant force on the positive charge  is mathematically given as

X=40N

<h3>What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force on the negative charge?</h3>

Question Parameters:

Three-point charges, two positive and one negative, each having a magnitude of 20

Generally, the -ve charge   is mathematically given as

Q+=\sqrt{x^2+x^2+2x.xcos120}\\\\Q+=\sqrt{2x^2+2x*(1/2)}

Q+=X

Therefore

x=\frac{Kq1q2}{r2}\\\\x=\frac{9*10^9*20*10^{-6}*20*10^{-6}}{(30*10^-2)^2}

X=40N
