Answer:
Average power output of insect is 2.42W
Explanation:
Workdone by constant force during displacement is given by:
W= F× d cos theta
Where theta is angle between F and d.
Power output due to the force over the interval time is given by:
P= Workdone/change in time
Ginen:
Mass of insect,m= 7.0g= 7/1000 = 0.07kg
Downward force applied by insect,F= 2mg
Distance moved by the wing each stroke=1.5cm=1.5/100= 0.015m
W= F× d cos theta
Where theta=0° since force is in the same direction as the displacement.
W= 2mg×d
W= 2× 0.07 × 9.8 × 0.015
W= 0.02058J
Power output = W/ change in time
Since wings make 117strokes each second time interval is 1/117 = 8.5×10^-3seconds
Power= 0.02058/(8.5×10^-3)
Power= 2.42W
You have to reduce 2.00 an5.00 I order to use the×that=0.800
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Scientists use significant figures to avoid claiming more accuracy in a calculation than they actually know.
