Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.

In an effort to decrease the mAs of an exposure, the 15% rule of kVp change may be considered. Changing the original kVp of 84 u
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Will result in :Greater Compton scatter interaction

Explanation

This is because The 15% rule states that changing the kVp by 15% has the same effect as doubling the mAs, or reducing the mAs by 50%; that is A 15% increase in kVp has the same effect as doubling the mAs and vice versa but in this case reducing mas causes more Compton scatter because Compton scattering occurs at a lower kvp

A pitcher delivers a fast ball with a velocity of 43 m/s to the south. the batter hits the ball and gives it a velocity of 51 m/
hoa [83]
Assuming north as positive direction, the initial and final velocities of the ball are:
v_i=-43 m/s (with negative sign since it is due south)
v_f=+51 m/s
the time taken is t=1.0 ms=0.001 s, so the average acceleration of the ball is given by
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}= \frac{51 m/s-(-43 m/s)}{0.001 s}=9.4 \cdot 10^4 m/s^2
And the positive sign tells us the direction of the acceleration is north.
