A 40.0 N crate is pulled up a 5.0 m inclined plane. The angle of inclination of the plane to horizontal is 37o. If there is a co

nstant force of friction of 10.0 N between the crate and the surface, what is the net gain in potential energy by the crate? Group of answer choices 120 J -120 J 210 J -210 J

The net gain in potential energy by the crate is 120 J.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy that an object has stored in it as a result of its position or condition. Potential energy exists in a stretched spring, a book held above your head, and a bicycle on top of a hill. The joule, which is represented by the letter "J," is the standard unit for calculating potential energy.

<h3 /><h3>Calculation:</h3>

We use the idea of potential energy, which is given by the equation,

PE = mgh

where,

m = mass of the crate

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height

Given,

mg = 40 N

L = 5 m

angle of inclination, ∅ = 37°

h = L sin∅

h = 5 (sin 37°)

h = 5 (3/5)

h = 3 m

Put the values in the above formula,

PE = mgh

PE = 40 (3)

PE = 120 J

Therefore, the net gain in potential energy by the crate is 120 J.

Jess rides her motorcycle at an average speed of 20 m/s for 500 seconds. how far did she ride
Sedaia [141]

Distance = (speed) x (time)

Distance = (20 m/s) x (500 s)

Distance = (20 x 500) (m·s / s)

Distance = 10,000 m

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person W=652\ N

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force F=585\ N

net force at highest point

F_{net}=W+F_c

where F_c= centripetal force

F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

F_{net}=F_{n}= Normal Force

585=652+F_c

F_c=-67\ N

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

F_n=F_c+W

F_n=652+67

F_n=719\ N
