Answer:

180Watts

Explanation:

Power = Force * distance/Time

Given

Force = 500N

Distance = 18m

Time t = 50secs

Substitute into the formula

Power = 500*18/50

Power = 10 * 18

Power = 180Watts

Hence her power output vertically is is 180Watts

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 55.0 cm. She finds the pendulum m

forsale [732]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity will be $g=5.718m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given length of pendulum l = 55 cm = 0.55 m

It is given that pendulum completed 100 swings in 145 sec

So time taken by pendulum for 1 swing $=\frac{145}{100}=1.45sec$

We have to find the acceleration due to gravity at that point

We know that time period of pendulum;um is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

So $1.45=2\times 3.14\times \sqrt{\frac{0.55}{g}}$

$\sqrt{\frac{0.55}{g}}=0.230$

Squaring both side

${\frac{0.3025}{g}}=0.0529$

$g=5.718m/sec^2$

So acceleration due to gravity will be $g=5.718m/sec^2$

A 3.1-kilogram gun initially at rest is free to

34kurt

The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.

The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:

7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42

So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.

A 2.03 kg book is placed on a flat desk. Suppose the coefficient of static friction between the book and the desk is 0.602 and t

diamong [38]

Answer:

11.98 N

Explanation:

Normal force = mg = 2.03 * 9.81

coeff of static friction must be overcome for the book to begin moving

.602 = F / (2.03 * 9.81) = 11.98 N
