A. A crane at a construction site lifts a concrete block with a mass of m = 277 kg from the ground to the top of a building with

a height of h = 22.3 m. How much work did the motor of the crane do? (Assume zero energy loss in the lifting mechanism due to friction.)
b. If the duration of the lift was 2.85 minutes, then what was the average power performed by the crane?

a. The work motor of the crane did is 60.6 kJ.

b. The average power performed by the crane is 21.263kW.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

Work done is equal to product of force applied and distance moved.

Work = Force x Distance

Given is  a crane at a construction site lifts a concrete block with a mass of m = 277 kg from the ground to the top of a building with a height of h = 22.3 m.

a. Work done by motor is  W= F x d

The force is equal to the weight F = mg

So, W = 277 x 9.81 x 22.3

W = 60.6 kJ

Thus, the work done by the motor is  60.6 kJ.

b. The duration of the lift was 2.85 minutes

Power = Work done/ time

Plug the values, we ghave

P = 60.6 x1000 /2.85

P =21.263kW

Thus, the  average power performed by the crane is 21.263kW

What are the mechanics of a dunk tank?
mr_godi [17]
Step 1

Get a big plastic tank filled with water. You can use an industrial sized barrel, storage tank or some sort of above ground pool.

Step 2

Take a large board, wide enough to fit across the tank, and cut out a rectangular piece from the middle for the seat.

Step 3

Attach the seat back into the support board with heavy duty hinges at the back so that it can swing down freely.

Step 4

Attach a heavy duty door latch of the type used in public restrooms to the underside of the seat so that, when the latch is closed, the seat can't swing down. Use screws and epoxy to attach and reinforce it.

Step 5

Horizontally mount a bicycle wheel on the far side of the tank. It should be mounted on the same side that the latch is going to be on. Mount it in such a way that it will spin freely.

Step 6

Create a target. You can use a simple piece of wood, a caricature, or anything else. The point is to make something for people to throw at.

Step 7

Nail the target to the end of the lever arm.

Step 8

Attach a large lever arm to the bicycle wheel. This is the board that the target is going to be mounted on, so it should reach out far to the side of the wheel.

Step 9

Cover the seat board with something comfortable to sit on. This is going to be the seat, so you want to use something padded. Foam attached with contact cement would be an excellent choice, but even a thin layer of cloth or vinyl would work.

Step 10

Attach the longer board across the top of the tank so that the other board swings downward when released. Depending on what the tank is made of, you could use epoxy, nails, brackets or any combination.

Step 11

Attach a string from the bicycle wheel to the latch so that, when the lever arm swings back, the latch pulls out and releases the seat.

Step 12

Fill the pool with water...

Most comets come from an area called the oort cloud true or false
KiRa [710]
The statement is constructed with the purest form of veracity, and
it is True in every respect, every jot and tittle, ever 'p' and 'q'.
Truer words are rarely if ever spoken.  Verily and forsooth,
Most comets indeed come from a dark, distant, foreboding
place in the solar system, unknown until very recently, and
now referred to as the "Oört Cloud".

What type of objects exert gravitational pull? (5 points) Only living objects Only space objects All objects having mass All sub
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Every object in the universe that has mass exerts a gravitational pull, or force, on every other mass. The size of the pull depends on the masses of the objects. You exert a gravitational force on the people around you, but that force isn't very strong, since people aren't very massive.
