Answer:

A mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds.

Explanation:

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

$Power = \frac {Energy}{time}$

But Energy = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have

$Power = \frac {mgh}{time}$

Given the following data;

Mass = 10kg

Height = 10m

Time = 5 seconds

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s²

$Power = \frac {10*9.8*10}{5} = 490 Watts$

Hence, a mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds would produce the most power.

A 4 cm diameter "bobber" with a mass of 3 grams floats on a pond. A thin, light fishing line is tied to the bottom of the bobber

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculate the volume of the lead

$V=\frac{m}{d}\\\\=\frac{10g}{11.3g'cm^3}$

Now calculate the bouyant force acting on the lead

$F_L = Vpg$

$F_L=(\frac{10g}{11.3g/cm^3} )(1g/cm^3)(9.8m/s^2)\\\\=8.673\times 10^{-3}N$

This force will act in upward direction

Gravitational force on the lead due to its mass will act in downward direction

Hence the difference of this two force

$T=mg-F_L\\\\=(10\times10^{-3}kg(9.8m/s^2)-8.673\times 10^{-3}\\\\=8.933\times10^{-3}N$

If V is the volume submerged in the water then bouyant force on the bobber is

$F_B=V'pg$

Equate bouyant force with the tension and gravitational force

$F_B=T_mg\\\\V'pg=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg} \\\\V'=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg}$

Now Total volume of bobble is

$\frac{V'}{V^B} =\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+Mg}{pg} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3 }\times100\\\\=\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+(3)(9.8)}{(1000)(9.8)} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi (4.0\times10^{-2})^3 }\times100\\\\$

= $\large\boxed{4.52 \%}$

an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall, what is the height of

Hitman42 [59]

The height of the object will be -5.19 cm

A concave mirror's reflecting surface curves inward and away from the light source. Light is reflected inward to a single focus point via concave mirrors. Concave mirrors, in contrast to convex mirrors, produce a variety of images depending on the object's to the mirror.

Given an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall

So let,

v = Image distance from the mirror = -33.5 cm

u = object distance from the mirror (concave) = 24 cm

hi = Image height = 7.25 cm

h = height of the object = ?

Using below formula to find height of the object

-v/u = hi/h

Putting all value in the formula we get

-(-33.5)/(-24) = 7.25/h

h = -5.19 cm

Therefore the height of the object will be -5.19 cm

A bubble at the bottom of lake rises to surface within 10.0 seconds with an acceleration of 10.0 meters per second. What is the

amm1812

If the bubble travels 10 meters per second and it takes 10 seconds, then just multiply the distance per second by the total seconds to get the total depth.
10 • 10 = 100
The lake is 100 meters deep.

Think of it this way to clarify the answer:
It takes a bubble traveling at a speed of 10 meters per second 10 seconds to travel 100 meters.
