Physics
1 answer:
ioda3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Explanation:

Given;

power exerted by the lawnmower engine, P = 19 hp

time in which the power was exerted, t = 1 minute = 60 s.

1 hp = 745.7 watts

The work done by the lawnmower is calculated as follows;

Work = Energy = \frac{Power}{time} \\\\Work = \frac{(19 \times 745.7)}{60} = 236.14 \ J

Therefore, the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Why is salt water a better conductor of electricity than river water?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: The conductivity of water depends on the concentration of dissolved ions in solution. ... This is because the Sodium Chloride salt dissociates into ions. Hence sea water is about a million times more conductive than fresh water.

A 71 kW radio station broadcasts its signal uniformly in all directions. - What is the average intensity of its signal at a dist
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of signal being radiated per second on all sides = 71 x 10³ J .

At a distance of 220 m it is spread over an area of 4 π x (220)² because it is spreading uniformly on all sides.

So energy crossing per unit area

= \frac{71\times10^3}{4 \times \pi\times(220)^2}

= 11.67 x 10⁻² Wm⁻²s⁻¹.

This is the intensity of the signal.

At 2200 m this intensity will further reduce by 100 times

So there it becomes equal to

11.67 x 10⁻⁴ Wm⁻² s⁻¹.

Pretend you (80 kg) are making repairs on the outside of the International Space Station. You are floating 20 meters away from t
djyliett [7]

Answer:

32 seconds

Explanation:

m1 = 80 kg

m2 = 10 kg

v2 = 5m/s

According to the property of conservation of momentum, assuming that both you and the bag are stationary before the safety rope comes lose:

m_{1} v_{1} =m_{2} v_{2} \\80v_{1} =10*5 \\v_{1} = 0.625\ m/s

Since the space station is 20 meters away, the time taken to reach it is given by:

t = \frac{20}{0.625}\\t=32\ s

It takes you 32 seconds to reach the station.

An electric fan is turned off, and its angular velocity decreases uniformly from 500 rev/min to 200 rev/min in 4.00 s.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

a) -1.25 rev/s² and 23.3 rev

b)  2.67s

Explanation:

a) ωФ_o_z = (500 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 8.333 rev/s

ωФ_Z= (200 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 3.333rev/s

time 't'= 4 s

angular acceleration 'αФ_Z'=?

constant angular acceleration equation is given by,

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

αФ_Z= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z )/t => (3.333-8.333)/4

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

θ-θФ_o = ωФ_o_z t + 1/2αФ_Zt²

      =(8.333)(4) + 1/2 (-1.25)(4)²

      =23.3 rev

b) ωФ_Z=0   (comes to rest)

ωФ_o_z = 3.333 rev/s

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

t= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z)/αФ_Z => (0- 3.333)/-1.25

t= 2.67s
