A 30-kg child sits at the top of a 3-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling 4 m/s. How much PE does he start wi

Jobisdone [24]

At the top:

   Potential Energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

   = (30 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3 meters)

   = 882 joules

At the bottom:

   Kinetic Energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

   = (1/2) x (30 kg) x (3 m/s)²

   = (15 kg) x (9 m²/s²)

   = 135 joules .

He had 882 joules of potential energy at the top,
but only 135 joules of kinetic energy at the bottom.

Friction stole (882 - 135) = 747 joules of his energy while he slid down.
The seat of his jeans must be pretty warm.

All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 270-W blender, and a 80-W lamp are plugged into the same outle

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Explanation:

given data

toaster = 1140-W

blender = 270-W

lamp = 80-W

voltage = 120 V

solution

we know that current is express as

current = power ÷ voltage ......................1

here voltage is same in all three device

current by toaster is

I = $\frac{1140}{120}$

I = 9.5 A

and

current by blender

I = $\frac{270}{120}$

I = 2.25 A

and

current by lamp is

I = $\frac{80}{120}$

I = 0.667 A

so here device in parallel so

total current is = 9.5 A + 2.25 A + 0.667 A

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

What resistance must be connected in parallel with a 633-Ω resistor to produce an equivalent resistance of 205 Ω?

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

303 Ω

Explanation:

Given

Represent the resistors with R1, R2 and RT

R1 = 633

RT = 205

Required

Determine R2

Since it's a parallel connection, it can be solved using.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2

Substitute values for R1 and RT

1/205 = 1/633 + 1/R2

Collect Like Terms

1/R2 = 1/205 - 1/633

Take LCM

1/R2 = (633 - 205)/(205 * 633)

1/R2 = 428/129765

Take reciprocal of both sides

R2 = 129765/428

R2 = 303 --- approximated

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{force}{mass}$ </h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{500}{50} \\ = \frac{50}{5}$ </h3>

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
