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

Which of the following has the largest momentum?
san4es73 [151]

Momentum = mass x velocity

Thus Option A is the correct answer

Momentum (dog)  = 10 kg x (0.447 x 30) m/s

= 134.1 Kg m/s

Momentum ( bullet)  = 0.02 kg x (0.447 x 800) m/s

= 7.152 Kg m/s

Momentum ( truck) = 0, as v = 0

tightrope has both low mass  and low speed, thus its momentum will be low

Generate description of the right hand rule for finding the magnetic field around a current carrying wire an tell how it is used
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Right hand thumb rule : It is a rule used to find the magnetic field direction around current carrying wire .

Explanation:

It states that : "If you grasp conductor in your right hand such that thumb points in upward direction ,then the direction in which our finger curls gives the direction of magnetic field or magnetic lines of forces" .

This rule proves that :Current can give rise to magnetism .

Around every current carrying conductor there exist a magnetic field which can be easily felt .

According to this rule : When a current flows in upward direction ,the finger curls in anticlockwise direction and when direction of current reverses ,then the direction of field also reverses .

Most reactive non-metals in order?
kompoz [17]
Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.   <span>

A 72-kg skydiver is falling from 10000 feet. At an instant during the fall, the skydiver
MissTica

Answer:

Approximately 2.31\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} (assuming that the acceleration due to gravity isg = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.)

Explanation:

Assuming that g = 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} the weight on this 72-kg skydiver would be W = m \cdot g = 72 \; \rm kg \times 9.81\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} = 706.32\; \rm N (points downwards.)

Air resistance is supposed to act in the opposite direction of the motion. Since this skydiver is moving downwards, the air resistance on the skydiver would point upwards.

Therefore, the net force on this skydiver should be the difference between the weight and the air resistance on the skydiver:

\begin{aligned}F(\text{net force}) &= W - F(\text{air resistance})\\ &= 706.32\; \rm N - 540\; \rm N =166.32\; \rm N \end{aligned}.

Apply Newton's Second Law of motion to find the acceleration of this skydiver:

\begin{aligned}a &= \frac{F(\text{net force})}{m} \\ &= \frac{166.32\; \rm N}{72\; \rm kg} = 2.31\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} \end{aligned}.
