Answer:

89600 Watts.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of speedboat = 2800 Kg

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 16 m/s

Time (t) = 8 s

Power (P) expended by the speedboat =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the speedboat. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 16 m/s

Time (t) = 8 s

Acceleration (a) =?

v = u + at

16 = 0 + (a × 8)

16 = 0 + 8a

16 = 8a

Divide both side by 8

a = 16/8

a = 2 m/s²

The acceleration of the speedboat is 2 m/s²

Next, we shall determine the force exerted by the speedboat. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of speedboat = 2800 Kg

Acceleration (a) of speedboat = 2 m/s²

Force (F) of speedboat =?

F = ma

F = 2800 × 2

F = 5600 N

Finally, we shall determine the expended by the speedboat at maximum speed. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) of speedboat = 5600 N

Maximum velocity (v) = 16 m/s

Power (P) expended by the speedboat =?

P = F × v

P = 5600 × 16

P = 89600 Watts

Thus, the power expended by the speedboat is 89600 Watts.

What is the upper block's acceleration if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is 0.13?

IgorLugansk [536]

Let us assume that pulley is mass less.

Let the tension produced at both ends of the pulley is T.

We are asked to calculate the acceleration of the block.

Let the masses of two bodies are denoted as $m_{1} \ and\ m_{2}\ respectively$

$Let\ m_{1} =1 kg\ and\ m_{2} =2 kg$

As per this diagram, the body having mass 1 kg is moving downward and the body having mass 2 kg is moving on the surface of the table.

Let the acceleration of each block is a .

For body having mass 1 kg:

The net force acting on 1 kg body will be-

$m_{1} g-T=m_{1} a$ [1]

Here tension in the rope will be vertically upward and weight of the body will be in vertical downward direction.

For body having mass 2 kg:

The coefficient of kinetic friction $[\mu]=0.13$

$Hence\ the\ frictional\ force\ F=\mu N$

$F=\mu m_{2} g$

Hence the net force acting on the body having mass 2 kg-

$T-\mu m_{2} g=m_{2} a$ [2]

Here the tension of the rope is towards right i.e along the direction of motion of the 2 kg block and frictional force is towards left.

Combining 1 and 2 we get-

$m_{1} g-T=m_{1}a$ [1]

$T-\mu m_{2}g= m_{2} a$ [2]

---------------------------------------------------

$[m_{1} -\mu m_{2} ]g=[m_{1} +m_{2} ]a$

$a=\frac{m_{1}-\mu m_{2}} {m_{1}+ m_{2}}*g$

$a=\frac{1-[2*0.13]}{1+2} *9.8\ m/s^2$

$a=\frac{0.74}{3} *9.8\ m/s^2$

$a=2.417 m/s$ [ans]

Two resistors are connected in parallel to a 12 V battery. The potential difference across one of the resistors is 12 v . Calcul

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

We have to take into account that the potential difference is equal to the voltage, and this is measured between two points as the resistors are connected in parallel to the voltage source, the resistors will have the same voltage.

For ease, we will take the attached image of resistors connected in parallel.

As both resistors at their ends share the A & B connection points, these are at a voltage of 12V
