Peter’s body supplies a force of 500 N to run up a 10-m hill in 10 s. How much power is involved in Peter’s run up the hill? Exp
shutvik [7]

Answer: 500 Watts

Explanation:

Power P is the speed with which work W is done. Its unit is Watts (W), being 1 W=\frac{1 Joule}{1 s}.

Power is mathematically expressed as:

P=\frac{W}{t} (1)

Where t is the time during which work W  is performed.

On the other hand, the Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.  It is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter (1J=(1N)(1m)=Nm  ).

When the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:  

W=(F)(d) (2)

In this case, we have the following data:

F=500 N

d=10 m

t=10 s

So, let's calculate the work done by Peter and then find how much power is involved:

From (2):

W=(500 N)(10 m) (3)

W=5000 J (4)

Substituting (4) in (1):

P=\frac{5000 J}{10 s} (5)

Finally:

P=500 W

An undamped 1.48 kg horizontal spring oscillator has a spring constant of 35.4 N/m. While oscillating, it is found to have a spe
givi [52]

Answer: 0.798 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the spring oscillator, m = 1.48 kg

Force constant of the spring, k = 35.4 N/m

Speed of oscillation, v = 3.9 m/s

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv²

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * 1.48 * 3.9²

KE = 0.5 * 22.5108

KE = 11.26 J

Using the law of conservation of Energy. The Potential Energy of the system is equal to Kinetic Energy of the system

KE = PE

PE = 1/2kx²

11.26 = 1/2 * 35.4 * x²

11.26 = 17.7x²

x² = 11.26 / 17.7

x² = 0.6362

x = √0.6362

x = 0.798 m

Light in air enter crown glass (n = 1.52) at an angle of 35 degrees. What is the refracted angle?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

22.17 degree

Explanation:

n = 1.52

Angle of incidence, i = 35 degree

Let the angle of refraction is r.

use the Snell's law

n = Sin i / Sin r

Sin r = Sin i / n = Sin 35 / 1 .52

Sin r = 0.37735

r = 22.17 degree

Thus, the ray is refracted at an angle of 22.17 degree.

Explain how attaching the key to a piece of wood could prevent the key from sinking
Free_Kalibri [48]

It could prevent the key from sinking because the wood would float.

It floats because it weighs less than amount of water it would have to push out of the glass if it sank. Wood, cork, and ice are all less dense than water, and they float; rocks are more dense, so they sink. A key would also be more dense causing it to sink.

Hope this helps,

Davinia.
