Maybe number 4 could help.
10. A safe place to use the trebuchet would be away from other buildings and people. A good example of a place would be a large field with no nearby structures.
14. Many factors need to be kept consistent throughout the experiment. One example of a variable that would need to be consistent is the weight and size of the projectile.
15. It is important to do many trials so that you can make sure that the results of each trial are nearly the same. If they are all vastly different, then it means that something has gone wrong.
Sorry I was only able to answer a few questions, but I hope these few answers help! :)
Answer: 2000 watts
Explanation:
Given that,
power = ?
Weight of object = 200-N
height = 4 m
Time = 4 s
Power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power is simply obtained by dividing work by time. Its unit is watts.
i.e Power = work / time
(since work = force x distance, and weight is the force acting on the object due to gravity)
Then, Power = (weight x distance) / time
Power = (200N x 4m) / 4s
Power = 8000Nm / 4s
Power = 2000 watts
Thus, 2000 watts of power is needed to lift the object.
Answer:
The correct option is D
Explanation:
In trying to achieve what the student wanted to see, which is to see the relationship between the weight the cord can hold and how long the cord will stretch. Since the origin of the graph is from zero, the value plotted on the vertical axis would be just the length caused by each weights. Thus, <u>the original length would have to be subtracted from the measured length to determine the actual length caused by the weight added to the cord</u>.
