Step 1: Start by analyzing the given equations. The first equation represents the forces acting on an object, where T is the tension in the rope, and the forces include the weight of the object (mass × gravitational acceleration) and the net force (mass × acceleration). The second equation relates the power (P) to the tension (T) and velocity (v).
Step 2: Rewrite the first equation to solve for the tension (T). The equation is T - (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = (1500 kg)(1.0 m/s²). Rearrange it to isolate T: T = (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s²) + (1500 kg)(1.0 m/s²).
Step 3: Substitute the known values for mass (1500 kg), gravitational acceleration (9.8 m/s²), and acceleration (1.0 m/s²) into the equation for T. This will give you the numerical value of the tension.
Step 4: Use the second equation, P = T(2.0 m/s), to calculate the power. Substitute the value of T obtained from Step 3 into this equation.
Step 5: Multiply the tension (T) by the velocity (2.0 m/s) to find the power (P). This will give you the final result for the power output.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Newton's Second Law of Motion

Newton's Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. This relationship is expressed mathematically as F = ma, where F is the net force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. In the context of the given question, it helps to analyze the forces acting on the 1500 kg object and how they relate to its acceleration.

Tension Force

Tension is a force that is transmitted through a string, rope, or cable when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends. In the equation provided, T represents the tension in the rope or cable supporting the mass. Understanding how tension interacts with gravitational force and acceleration is crucial for solving the problem effectively.

Power

Power is defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred over time. It can be calculated using the formula P = Fv, where P is power, F is the force applied, and v is the velocity of the object. In the context of the question, the power equation P = T(2.0 m/s) indicates how the tension in the rope contributes to the power output when the object moves at a specific velocity.

Astronomers using a 2.0-m-diameter telescope observe a distant supernova - an exploding star. The telescope's detector records 9.1 x 10-11 J of light energy during the first 10 s. It's known that this type of supernova has a visible-light power output of 5.0 x 1037 W for the first 10 s of the explosion. How distant is the supernova? Give your answer in light years, where one light year is the distance light travels in one year. The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s.
