In a spy movie, the hero, James, stands on a scale that is positioned horizontally on the floor. It registers his weight as 810 N . Unknown to our hero, the floor is actually a trap door, and when the door suddenly disappears, James and the scale fall at the acceleration of gravity, down towards an unknown fate. As James falls, he looks at the scale to see his weight. What does he see

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

His weight would be zero on the scale i.e he is weightless at that instance.

Explanation:

weight = mg

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration of gravity.

⇒ 810 = mg

During free fall, the weight of an object can be determined by:

W = mg - ma (provided that acceleration of gravity is greater than acceleration of the object)

where a is the acceleration of the object.

But since James fall at the acceleration of gravity, then:

g = a

mg = ma = 810 N

So that;

W = 810 - 810

    = 0 N

Therefore though the weight of James is 810 N, but the scale reads 0 N. this condition is referred to as weightlessness.

If a power utility were able to replace an existing 500 kV transmission line with one operating at 1 MV, it would change the amount of heat produced in the transmission line to

Answers

Answer:

It would change the amount of heat produced in the transmission line to four times the previous value.

Explanation:

Given;

initial voltage in the transmission line, V₁ = 500 kV = 500,000 V

Final voltage in the transmission line, V₂ = 1 MV = 1,000,000

The power lost in the transmission line due to heat is given by;

[tex]P = \frac{V^2}{R}[/tex]

Power lost in the first wire;

[tex]P_1 = \frac{V_1^2}{R}[/tex]

[tex]R = \frac{V_1^2}{P_1}[/tex]

Power lost in the second wire

[tex]P_2 = \frac{V_2^2}{R}\\\\ R = \frac{V_2^2}{P_2}[/tex]

Keeping the resistance constant, we will have the following equation;

[tex]\frac{V_2^2}{P_2} = \frac{V_1^2}{P_1} \\\\P_2 = \frac{V_2^2P_1}{V_1^2}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]P_2 = \frac{(1,000,000)^2P_1}{(500,000)^2}\\\\P_2 =4P_1[/tex]

Therefore, it would change the amount of heat produced in the transmission line to four times the previous value.

Research has shown that this type of interview is the most effective in predicting later job
performance.

Answers

Answer:

Situational Interview

Explanation:

A situational interview is about as close to the real job as it gets. During this type of interview, candidates may be presented with a visual or audio simulation of a scenario and asked to respond to it. They are asked to analyze a problem and profer suggestions on how they would handle it.

If the candidate has solved similar problems in the past, it will come to the fore.

If they haven't then the best outcome is that it will tell the interviewers how well the candidate is able to solve similar problems.

An example of a Situational Interview question is this:

How would you handle an angry customer who for no justifiable reason has decided to create a problematic scene to disrupt the business?

Because Situational Interviews are about behavioral responses (present, past, and future), they are powerful tools in determining or predicting future job performance. An interviewing technique that is developed using this methodology is called the S.T.A.R.

This is an acronym for Situation, Task, Action, Result.

Situation: the candidate is asked to present a challenging situation that occurred recently. This tests what the candidate sees as a challenging situation.

Task: The candidate based on the situation is asked to identify what they need to do to remedy the problem. This tells the interviewer(s) whether or not the candidate can think up a solution for the problem.

Action: Here they define the actual steps taken to resolve the problem

Result: The candidate against the above is required to give the result gotten

Action and Result tell the interviewer the quality of the candidate's ability to follow through and achieve the intended results. This also judges the quality of execution in terms of cost and time. The candidate with the lowest cost and time and the highest quality of outcome is considered the best.

1. A hot air balloon weighing 30 N is tied to the ground by a string to prevent
from floating off the ground. The volume of the balloon is 20 m and the
density of air is 1.3 kgm ?. Find:
a. upthrust acting on the balloon. Take g = 10 ms 2.
b. force exerted by the rope on the balloon?

Answers

Answer:

a) FB = 260 [N]

b) FT = 230 [N]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use a static analysis, since Globe does not move. For a better understanding in solving this problem, a free body diagram with the forces acting on the globe is attached.

The buoyant force acts upward as it causes the balloon to tend to float, the weight of the balloon tends to lower the balloon and the downward tension force does not allow the balloon to float

The buoyant force is defined by the following equation:

FB = Ro*V*g

where:

FB = Buoyant force [N]

Ro = density of the air = 1.3 [kg/m^3]

V = volume of the balloon = 20 [m^3]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s^2]

FB = 1.3*20*10 = 260 [N]

Now we do a sum of forces equal to zero in the y-axis

FB - 30 - FT = 0

260 - 30 = FT

FT = 230 [N]

A marathon is 26 mi and 385 yd long. Estimate how many strides would be required to run a marathon. Assume a reasonable value for the average number of feet/stride.

Answers

Answer:

According to the University of Iowa, the average length of a stride is 5ft.

Now, the total distance of the marathon is:

26mi and 385yd.

Let's transform that distance into ft.

1mi = 5280ft

Then:

26mi = 26*5280ft = 137,280ft

1yd = 3ft

then:

385yd = 385*3ft = 1,155ft.

Then the total distance of the marathon, in ft, is:

D = 137,280ft + 1,155ft = 138,435 ft.

Now the average number of strides needed will be equal to the quotient between the total distance of the marathon and the distance traveled in each stride.

N = 138,435ft/5ft = 27,687.

Answers

Answer:

The value  is [tex]  \mu  = 0.72  [/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the first car is  [tex]m_1  =  1870\ kg[/tex]

    the initial  speed of the car  is  [tex]u  =  13.5 \  m/s[/tex]

    The  mass of the second car is  [tex]m_2 =  2970\  kg[/tex]

    The distance move by both cars is  s =  1.93  m

Generally from the law of momentum conservation

    [tex]m_1 * u_1 + m_2 *  u_2  =  (m_1 + m_2 ) *  v_f[/tex]

Here [tex]u_2  =  0[/tex] because the second car is at rest

and  [tex]v_f[/tex] is the final  velocity of the the two car

So

    [tex]1870*  13.5+ 0=  ( 1870 + 2970 ) *  v_f[/tex]      

=> [tex]v_f  =  5.22\  m/s[/tex]

Generally from kinematic equation

    [tex]v_f^2 = u_2^2  +  2as[/tex]

here a is the deceleration

So

    [tex]5.22^2 = 0  +  2 *a  *  1.93[/tex]

=> [tex]a =  7.06 \  m/s^2 [/tex]

Generally the frictional  force is equal to the force propelling the car , this can be mathematically represented as

   [tex]F_f  =  F[/tex]

Here  F is mathematically represented as

[tex]F =  (m_1 + m_2) *  a[/tex]

[tex]F =  (1870 + 2970) *  7.06 [/tex]    

[tex]F =34170.4 \ N[/tex]  

and

[tex]F_f  =  \mu *  (m_1 + m_2 ) *  g[/tex]

[tex]F_f  =  47432 * \mu [/tex]

So

[tex]  47432 * \mu   = 34170.4  [/tex]

=> [tex]  47432 * \mu   = 34170.4  [/tex]

=> [tex]  \mu  = 0.72  [/tex]

What is the magnitude of the linear impulse experienced by a 73.7 kg passenger in the car during this time? Submit Answer Tries 0/20 What is the average force experienced by the passenger?

Answers

Answer:

1. p = 562.3 kg*m/s

2. F = 142.7 N

Explanation:

1. The linear impulse (p) is given by:

[tex] p = mv [/tex]

Where:

m: is the passenger's mass = 73.7 kg

v: is the speed = 7.63 m/s

[tex] p = mv = 73.7 kg*7.63 m/s = 562.3 kg*m/s [/tex]

Hence, the magnitude of the linear impulse experienced by a passenger is 562.3 kg*m/s.

2. The average force can be calculated using the following equation:

[tex] F = \frac{m(v_{f} - v_{0})}{t} = \frac{73.7 kg(7.63 m/s - 0)}{3.94 s} = 142.7 N [/tex]  

Therefore, the average force experienced by the passenger is 142.7 N.

What kind of variation is there in the mechanical energy as the cart rolls down the ramp? Does this agree with your prediction? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

 Em₀ = U = m g h ,  Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

Explanation:

When a car is on a ramp it has a certain amount of mechanical energy. At the highest point of the ramp the mechanical energy is fully potential given by

          Em₀ = U = m g h

As part of this energy descends down the ramp, part of this energy is transformed into kinetic energy and has one part of each, even though the sum remains the initial energy

            Em = K + U = ½ m v² + mg y

        y <h

when it reaches the bottom of the ramp it has no height therefore there is no potential energy, all of it has been transformed into kinetic energy

          Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

This energy transformation is in the case that the friction force is zero.

If there is a friction force, it performs work against the low car, it is reflected in an increase in the internal energy (temperature) of the car. In this case the energy in the lower part is less than the initial one by a factor

         [tex]W_{nc}[/tex] = - fr L

therefore the numeraire values ​​of the velocity are lower, due to the energy lost by friction.

During the first part of the lift, the crane lifts the bricks a vertical distance h1=3y in a time t1=4T. During the second part of the lift, the crane lifts the bricks a vertical distance h2=y in t2=T. Which of the following correctly relates the power P1 generated by the crane during the first part of the lift to the power P2 generated by the crane during the second part of the lift?
A. P2=4P1
B. P2=43P1
C. P2=P1
D. P2=34P1
E. P2=13P1

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  B

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the pile is  M

   The  height is  H  =  4 y

    The vertical distance achieve during the first lift is  [tex]h_1  =  3 y[/tex]

     The time taken is  [tex]t_1 =  4T [/tex]

    The vertical distance achieve during the second lift is  [tex]h_2  =  y[/tex]

     The time taken is [tex] t_2 =  T [/tex]

Generally the velocity of the crane during the first lift is  

      [tex]v _1 =  \frac{h_1}{t_1 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]v _1 =  \frac{3 y}{4T }[/tex]    

Generally the velocity of the crane during the second  lift is    

      [tex]v _2 =  \frac{h_2}{t_2 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]v _2 =  \frac{ y}{T}[/tex]  

Generally the power generated by  the crane during the first lift is    

    [tex]P_1 =  F_1 *  v_1[/tex]

Here [tex]F_1[/tex] is the weight of the brick which is mathematically represented as

      [tex]F_1 =  M  * g [/tex] , g is the acceleration due to gravity

 So

       [tex]P_1 =  Mg  *  \frac{3y}{4T}[/tex]

Generally the power generated by  the crane during the first lift is    

    [tex]P_1 =  F_2 *  v_2[/tex]

Here [tex]F_2[/tex] is the weight of the brick which is mathematically represented as

      [tex]F_2 =  M  * g [/tex] , g is the acceleration due to gravity

 So

       [tex]P_1 =  Mg  *  \frac{y}{T}[/tex]

The ratio of the first power generated to the second power is  

       [tex]\frac{P_1}{P_2} =  \frac{Mg  *  \frac{3y}{4T} }{ Mg  *  \frac{y}{T} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\frac{P_1}{P_2}  =  \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

=>   [tex]P_2 = \frac{4}{3} P_1[/tex]
