A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The average power is calculated as 735.0 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Total mass, M = 1200 kg

Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950

Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m

Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s

Now,

To calculate the average power:

First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:

Force, F = (M - m)g = (1200 - 950)\times 9.8 = 2450 N

Now, the work done by this force:

W = Fd = 2450\times 54 = 132300\ J = 132.3\ kJ

Average power is given as:

P_{avg} = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{132300}{180} = 735.0\ W

A particle with charge 7.76×10^(−8)C is moving in a region where there is a uniform 0.700 T magnetic field in the +x-direction.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The  z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The charge on the particle is q =  7.76 *0^{-8} \  C    

           The magnitude of the magnetic field is  B =  0.700\r i \ T

            The  velocity of the particle toward the x-direction is  v_x  =  -1.68*10^{4}\r  i  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the y-direction is

v_y  =  -2.61*10^{4}\ \r j  \ m/s

           The  velocity of the particle toward the z-direction is

v_y  =  -5.85*10^{4}\ \r k  \ m/s

Generally the force on this particle is mathematically represented as

          \= F  =  q (\= v   X  \= B )

So  we have    

          \= F  =  q ( v_x \r  i + v_y \r  j  +  v_z \r k  )  \ \ X \ (  \= B i)

         \= F  = q (v_y B(-\r  k) + v_z B\r j)      

  substituting values

       \= F  = (7.7 *10^{-8})([ (-2.61*10^{4}) (0.700)](-\r  z) + [(5.58*10^{4}) (0.700)]\r y)    

      \= F=  0.00303\ \r j +0.00141\ \r k                  

So the z-component of the force is  \= F_z  =  0.00141 \ N

A gold bar has a density of 19.3 g/mL. If the gold bar has a mass of 6.3 grams, what is the volume?
Natali [406]

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.32 mL".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Density of gold bar,

d = 19.3 g/mL

Mass of gold bar,

m = 6.3 grams

Now,

The volume will be:

⇒  Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

or,

⇒  Volume=\frac{Mass}{Density}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒               =\frac{6.3 \ g}{19.3 \ g/mL}

⇒               =0.32 \ mL
