If a fish is trying to capture an insect hovering above the surface of the water – how will it jump to catch it? Will it aim abo

ve or below what it sees? Explain what this question is saying.

Answer:

It will have aim at a point "below" the insect.

From the insect's point of view, the fish will appear to be shallower than it actually is because a ray of light from the insect to the fish will be bent "towards" the normal when the ray enters the water

Water is boiled at 300 kPa pressure in a pressure cooker. The cooker initially contains 3 kg of water. Once boiling started, it
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure of boiled water = 300 kPa

Mass of water = 3 kg

Time = 30 min

Dryness friction of water = 0.5

Suppose, what is the average rate of energy transfer to the cooker?

We know that,

The specific enthalpy of evaporate at 300 kPa pressure

h_{f}=561.47\ kJ/kg

h_{fg}=2163.8\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at initial state

h_{1}=h_{f}

h_{1}=561.47\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at final state

Using formula of enthalpy

h_{2}=h_{f}+xh_{fg}

Put the value into the formula

h_{2}=561.47+0.5\times2163.8

h_{2}=1643.37\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the rate of energy transfer to the cooker

Using formula of rate of energy

Q=\dfrac{m(h_{2}-h_{1})}{t}

Put the value into the formula

Q=\dfrac{3\times(1643.37-561.47)}{30\times60}

Q=1.80\ kW

Hence, The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

Calculate the mechanical advantage of a lever that has an input force of 15 N and an output force of 60 N. *
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Mechanical Advantage is given as a ratio of the force a machines gives out to the force that it receives.

Simply put, it is the ratio of output force to input force:

MA = \frac{OF}{IF}

We are given that:

OF = 60 N

IF = 15 N

Hence, the Mechanical Advantage of the lever is:

MA = \frac{60}{15} \\\\\\MA = 4

It is a ratio so it has no unit.

For a spring oscillating in simple harmonic motion, at what point will the velocity of
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

equilibrium position.

Explanation:

In simple harmonic motion , velocity v(t) is given by,

v(t) = -ω A sin(ωt + φ)

where

ω = angular velocity of the corresponding circular motion

A = amplitude

t = time

φ = the initial angle of the corresponding circular motion when the motion begin.

v (t) get maximized when sin value is maximized , i.e. sin \alpha=1

The particle has maximum speed when it passes through the equilibrium position.
