Answer:

On the earth surface ,W= 4200 J

On the moon surface ,W= 672 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass of the man ,m = 70 kg

Height of the stairway ,h= 6 m

On the earth surface :

We know that acceleration due to gravity at earth ,g= 10 m/s²

The work done by man is given as

W= m g h

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

W= 70 x 10 x 6 J

W=4200 J

On the moon  surface :

The gravity on the moon ,g= 1.6 m/s²

The work done W

W= 70 x 1.6 x 6 J

W=672 J

On the earth surface ,W= 4200 J

On the moon surface ,W= 672 J

A 40.0 kg wheel, essentially a thin hoop with radius 0.810 m, is rotating at 438 rev/min. It must be brought to a stop in 21.0 s
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

(a) Workdone = -27601.9J

(b) Average required power = 1314.4W

Explanation:

Mass of hoop,m =40kg

Radius of hoop, r=0.810m

Initial angular velocity Winitial=438rev/min

Wfinal=0

t= 21.0s

Rotation inertia of the hoop around its central axis I= mr²

I= 40 ×0.810²

I=26.24kg.m²

The change in kinetic energy =K. E final - K. E initail

Change in K. E =1/2I(Wfinal² -Winitial²)

Change in K. E = 1/2 ×26.24[0-(438×2π/60)²]

Change in K. E= -27601.9J

(a) Change in Kinetic energy = Workdone

W= 27601.9J( since work is done on hook)

(b) average required power = W/t

=27601.9/21 =1314.4W
