Maximum work done by the hammer on the is 10 J.

Force is added to the hammer in order to increase the power of the hammer; option B.

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance travelled by force.

Energy is used to do work.

The potential energy of the hammer is converted to work done.

Potential energy = mgh

The maximum amount of work it could do on the nail is given below:

Maximum work = 1.5 * 9.81 * 0.7

Maximum work = 10 J

Force is added to the hammer in order to increase the power of the hammer.

In conclusion, the work done by the hammer is obtained from the potential energy of the hammer.

A 0.50-kg object moves in a horizontal circular track with a radius of 2.5 m. An external forceof 3.0 N, always tangent to the t

kodGreya [7K]

The work done by the force is 47.1 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force in moving an object is given by

$W=Fd cos \theta$ (1)

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance covered by the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the motion of the object

In this problem, the force applied to the object is

F = 3.0 N

This force is always tangential to the track: this means that at every instant, the force is parallel to the motion of the object, so

$\theta=0$

And the distance covered is equal to the circumference of the circle, which is:

$d=2\pi r=2\pi (2.5 m)=15.7 m$

where r = 2.5 m is the radius.

Now we can substitute into eq.(1) to find the work done:

$W=(3.0)(15.7)(cos 0)=47.1 J$

How long will bus take to travel 150 km at an average speed of 40km/hr

romanna [79]

Answer:

3.75 hours

Explanation:

By $v = \frac{d}{t}$

where v is the velocity (or speed in this case)

d is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

$t = \frac{150}{40}=3.75$
Therefore it takes 3.75 hours for the bus to travel 150 km and 40 km/hr.

What ia the law of convesation of energy

Free_Kalibri [48]

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

What are close-toed shoes least likely to provide protection against?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Hydrogen gas is harmless to your feet so since you don’t need protection against it that seems the best answer.

Let the displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200). Find the total displacement, instantaneous velocity and ins

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

A.) 39.5 m

B.) 0

C.) 60m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that a displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200).

To Find the total displacement,

Reduce everything by dividing them by 5

X(t) = 4t^2 - 3t + 40 ...... (1)

For instantaneous velocity, differentiate x(t). That is,

dy/dt = 60t - 15 ...... (2)

But dy/dt = velocity.

If dy/dt = 0, then

60t - 15 = 0

60t = 15

t = 15/60

t = 0.25s

Substitutes t in equation (1)

Total displacement will be

X(t) = 4(0.25)^2 - 3(0.25) + 40

X(t) = 0.25 - 0.75 + 40

Total displacement = 39.5 m

To calculate instantaneous velocity, substitute t into equation (2)

V = 60 (0.25) - 15

V = 0.

and to find instantaneous acceleration, differentiate dv/dt

dv/dt = 60

Therefore, acceleration = 60 m/s^2
