A water pump pumps 3 kg of water every second from the bottom of a well to the top of the well 50 m above if the pump used 2000

vesna_86 [32]

watts = work per second.

work is mgh = 3x10x50=1500

watts out = 1500

Watts used = 2000

eff=1500/2000=75%

Why is the following situation impossible? A skater glides along a circular path. She defines a certain point on the circle as h

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A skater glides along a circular path. She defines a certain point on the circle as her origin. Later on, she passes through a point at which the distance she has traveled along the path from the origin is smaller than the magnitude of her displacement vector from the origin.

So here in circular motion of the skater we can see that the total path length of the skater is along the arc of the circle while we can say that displacement is defined as the shortest distance between initial and final position of the object.

So it is not possible in any circle that arc-length is less than the chord joining the two points on the circle

As we know that arc length is given as

$L = R\theta$

length of chord is given as

$L_c = 2Rsin(\frac{\theta}{2})$

so here

$L > L_c$

$R\theta > 2R sin(\frac{\theta}{2})$

so we have

$\frac{\theta}{2} > sin(\frac{\theta}{2})$

two billiard balls moving along the same line hit each other head-on. each has a mass of 0.220 kg; one has an initial velocity o

Tems11 [23]

Hi there!

Since the collision is elastic, we must also satisfy the following condition:

Ei = Ef, or:

KEi = KEf

Begin by writing an expression for momentum. (p = mv) Remember that one ball's direction is negative; in this instance, we can let the second ball be moving LEFT.

mv1 + mv2 = mvf1 + mvf2

0.220(1.84) + 0.220(-.530) = 0.220(vf1 + vf2)

0.2882/0.220 = vf1 + vf2

1.31 = vf1 + vf2

Now, we can express this as a conservation of energy:

1/2mv1² + 1/2mv2² = 1/2mvf1² + 1/2mvf2²

Plug in values and simplify:

0.403315 = 1/2m(vf1² + vf2²)

Simplify further:

3.6665 = vf1² + vf2²

Use the equation derived from momentum above and solve for one variable:

vf2 = 1.31 - vf1

Plug in this expression for vf2:

3.6665 = vf1² + (1.31 - vf1)²

Expand:

3.6665 = vf1² + 1.7161 - 2.62vf1 + vf1²

Simplify:

1.9504 = -2.62vf1 + 2vf1²

Solve for vf1 using a graphing calculator:

vf1 = -0.53 m/s or 1.84 m/s; we must figure out which one is correct.

Since v1 is heading to the right initially with a velocity of 1.84 m/s, we know that the ball's velocity could not have stayed the same in both magnitude and direction, so the final velocity must be -0.53 m/s.

Now, we can solve for the velocity of the other ball (initial of 0.53 m/s):

vf2 = 1.31 - (-0.53) = 1.84 m/s.

Now, you could have also made the connection that when two balls of the SAME MASS experience an ELASTIC collision, the velocities are simply "exchanged" from one to another. I just used this more "extensive" method to prove this.

Option C

Explanation:

Metal conducts heat much better than wood does.

Since Azam's hand is hotter than room temperature, both the metal and the wood conduct heat away from it.
