A 1500 kg elevator, suspended by a single cable with tension 16.0 kN, is measured to be moving upward at 1.2 m/s. Air resistance

is negligible.1. We want to find the elevator’s speed after traveling upward 10.0 m. This could be solved with Newton's laws and kinematics, but we will use the energy principle. How much work does tension do on the elevator as it rises 10.0 m?2. How much work does gravity do on the elevator as it rises 10.0 m?3. What is the elevator's kinetic energy after rising 10.0 m?4. What is the elevator's speed after rising 10.0 m?

Tension in the Cable is 0.87 m/s6^2, Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m is 1.6*10^5 N, Work done by gravity is  1.47 * 10^3 N, Elevator Kinetic Energy is 13897.5J and Elevator Speed after rising to 10m is 4.312 m/s.

Tension is a pulling force that operates in one dimension along the cables' axes in the opposite direction from the direction of the applied force. The combined weight of the elevator box and the passenger riding inside it, in the case of an elevator, provides the pulling force in the cables is called Tension.

A moving object or particle's kinetic energy, which depends on both mass and speed, is one of its characteristics. The type of motion can be vibration, translation, rotation around an axis, or any combination of these. Kinetic energy is a type of energy that an item or particle possesses as a result of motion.

We know that,

Tension in the Cable

T = m(g+a)  = g+a = T/m = 16 * 103 / 1500 = 10.67 m/s2

a = 10.67 - 9.8 = 0.87 m/s6^2

Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m.

U^2 = u^2 +2as

= 1.22 +2*0.87*10

=1.6*10^5 N

Work done by gravity  = mg * 10 = 14700 * 10 = 1.47 * 10^3 N

Elevator Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2*1500*18.53 = 13897.5J

Elevator Speed after rising to 10m ,

U^2 = u^2 +2as =  1.2 +2*0.87*10 = 18.6

U =(18.6)^1/2=4.312 m/s

After their loss to U of A, the ASU sumdevils traveled back to Tempe which is 187
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The average speed is 20.8 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed for the trip is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

For the trip in this problem, we have:

d = 187 km = 187,000 m is the distance travelled

The initial  time is 10:00 pm while the arriving time is 12:30 am: this means that the time elapsed is 2.5 hours. Converting into seconds,

t = 2.5 h \cdot (60)(60)=9000 s

Therefore, the average speed for the trip is

v=\frac{187,000}{9000}=20.8 m/s

A car moves in a circular motion and it is subject to a centripetal acceleration of 24 m/s2. If the radius of the circular path
Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by:

a_{c} = v^{2}/r

Thus, centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the radius. Thus, when radius will double, the centripetal acceleration will be halved.

A proton that has a mass m and is moving at 270 m/s in the i hat direction undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a stationa
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

V_p = 267.258 m/s

V_n = 38.375 m/s      

Explanation:

using the law of the conservation of the linear momentum:

P_i = P_f

where P_i is the inicial momemtum and P_f is the final momentum

the linear momentum is calculated by the next equation

P = MV

where M is the mass and V is the velocity.

so:

P_i = m(270 m/s)

P_f = mV_P + M_nV_n

where m is the mass of the proton and V_p is the velocity of the proton after the collision, M_n is the mass of the nucleus and V_n is the velocity of the nucleus after the collision.

therefore, we can formulate the following equation:

m(270 m/s) = mV_p + 14mV_n

then, m is cancelated and we have:

270 = V_p + 14V_n

This is a elastic collision, so the kinetic energy K is conservated. Then:

K_i = \frac{1}{2}MV^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(270)^2

and

Kf = \frac{1}{2}mV_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14m)V_n^2

then,

\frac{1}{2}m(270)^2 =  \frac{1}{2}mV_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14m)V_n^2

here we can cancel the m and get:

\frac{1}{2}(270)^2 =  \frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2

now, we have two equations and two incognites:

270 = V_p + 14V_n  (eq. 1)

\frac{1}{2}(270)^2 =  \frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2

in the second equation, we have:

36450 =  \frac{1}{2}V_p^2 +\frac{1}{2}(14)V_n^2  (eq. 2)

from this last equation we solve for V_n as:

V_n = \sqrt{\frac{36450-\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 }{\frac{1}{2} } }

and replace in the other equation as:

270 = V_p + 14\sqrt{\frac{36450-\frac{1}{2}V_p^2 }{\frac{1}{2} } }

so,

V_p = -267.258 m/s

Vp is negative because the proton go in the -i hat direction.

Finally, replacing this value on eq. 1 we get:

V_n = \frac{270+267.258}{14}

V_n = 38.375 m/s
