A person in good physical condition can put out 100 W of useful power for several hours at a stretch, perhaps by pedaling a mechanism that drives an electric generator. Neglecting any problems of generator efficiency and practical considerations such as resting time: (a) How many people would it take to run a 3.00 kW electric clothes dryer? people (b) How many people would it take to replace a large electric power plant that generates 500 MW? people

Aferris wheel is a vertical, circular amusement ride with radius 9 m. riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. the ferris wheel rotates at a constant rate, going around once in 9 s. consider a rider whose mass is 56 kg. at the bottom of the ride, what is the perpendicular component of the rate of change of the rider's momentum? at the bottom of the ride, what is the vector force exerted by the seat on the rider?

Which of the following is a homogenous mixture? o a. a toy box filled with toys o b. blood o c. trail mix o d. spaghetti and meatballs submit

Suppose water is leaking from a tank through a circular hole of area ah at its bottom. when water leaks through a hole, friction and contraction of the stream near the hole reduce the volume of water leaving the tank per second to cah 2gh , where c (0 < c < 1) is an empirical constant. a tank in the form of a right-circular cone standing on end, vertex down, is leaking water through a circular hole in its bottom. (assume the removed apex of the cone is of negligible height and volume.) (a) suppose the tank is 20 feet high and has radius 8 feet and the circular hole has radius 2 inches. the differential equation governing the height h in feet of water leaking from a tank after t seconds is dh dt = − 5 6h3/2 . if the height of the water is initially 8 feet, how long will it take the tank to empty? (round your answer to two decimal places.)
