What is energy converted to if it is not used to do work?

Physics
1 answer:
Romashka [77]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

the human body isn't very efficient at converting food into useful work. The human body is less than 5% efficient most of the time. The rest of the energy is converted to heat, which may or may not be useful, depending on how cool or warm a person wants to be.

An elevator cable breaks when a 925-kg elevator is 28.5 m above the top of a huge spring Ak = 8.00 * 104 N????mB at the bottom o
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a) = 258352.5J

b) = 23.63 m/s

c) = 1.8m

Explanation:

Data;

Mass = 925kg

Distance (s) = 28.5m

Force constant (k) = 8.0*10⁴ N/m

g = 9.8 m/s²

a) = work = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration

Force = 925 * 9.8 = 9065N

Work = F * s = 9065 * 28.5 = 258352.5J

b) acceleration (a) = (v² - u²) / 2s

a = v² / 2s

v² = a * 2s

v² = 9.8 * (2 * 28.5)

v² = 9.8 * 57

v² = 558.6

v = √(558.6)

V = 23.63 m/s

C). The work stops when the work done to raise the spring equals the work done to stop it by the spring

W = ½kx²

258352.5 = ½ * 8.0*10⁴ * x²

(2 * 258352.5) = 8.0*10⁴x²

516705 = 8.0*10⁴x²

X² = 516705 / 8.0*10⁴

X² = 6.46

X = √(6.46)

X = 2.54m

The compression was about 2.54m

A vehicle moving with a uniform a acceleration of 2m/s and has a velocity of 4m/s at a certain time .
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1 second later the vehicle's velocity will be:

v(1)= 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\

5 seconds later the vehicle's velocity will be:

v(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Recall the formula for the velocity of an object under constant accelerated motion (with acceleration "a"):

v(t)=v_0+a\,t

Therefore, in this case v_0=4\,\,\frac{m}{s}  and a=2\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

so we can estimate the velocity of the vehicle at different times just by replacing the requested "t" in the expression:

v(t)=v_0+a\,t\\v(t)=4+2\,\,t\\v(1)=4+2\,(1) = 6\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\v(5)=4+2\,(5)=14\,\,\frac{m}{s}

____ would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire"
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Aristotle

Explanation:

Aristotle  would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire".

Their presence spread in to the Renaissance from the Antiquity and Early medieval Ages, and was not consistently displaced until the Inquisition and philosophies such as classical physics.Aristotle's views on biblical theory were influenced by physical science. Many of the zoological findings of Aristotle found in his physiology, such as on the octopus ' hectocotyl (reproductive) head, remained incredible until the 19th century.
