you can find it using the equation: potential energy=mass*gravitational acceleration*height.


energy=50kg*9.8N/kg*40m=19600Nm=19600J or 19.6kJ


Sometimes they use 10 instead of 9.8 for the g constant.

A student hangs a weight on a newtonmeter. The energy currently stored in the spring in the newton meter is 0.045N. The student
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

5x10^-3

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that the force needed to compress or extend a spring is directly proportional to the distance you stretch it.

Hooke's Law can be represented as

<h3> F = kx, </h3>

<em>where F is the force </em>

<em>            k is the spring constant</em>

<em>            x is the extension of the material </em>

<em />

Plug values in the equation

Step 1 find the original extension

0.045 = (400)x

x = 1.125x 10^-4 m d

Step 2 find the new extension

0.045+2 = 400(x)

2.045 = 400x

x = 5.1125x10^-3

Step 3 subtract the new extension with original

Total extension of the spring =  5.1125x10^-3 - 1.125x 10^-4 m = 5x10^-3

A 1.80-kg monkey wrench is pivoted 0.250 m from its center of mass and allowed to swing as a physical pendulum. The period for s
asambeis [7]

Answer:

I=0.0987kg.m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=1.80kg

Deviation d=0.250

Time t=0.940s

Generally the equation for moment of inertia is mathematically given by

 I=\frac{T}{2\pi}^2(mgd)

 I=\frac{0.94}{2.3.142}^2(1.80*9.8*0.250)

 I=0.0987kgm^2

The angular momentum of a flywheel having a rotational inertia of 0.140 kg ·m2 about its central axis decreases from 3.00 to 0.8
Rasek [7]

Answer

given,

I = 0.140 kg ·m²

decrease from 3.00 to 0.800 kg ·m²/s in 1.50 s.

a) \tau = \dfrac{\Delta L}{\Delta t}

   \tau = \dfrac{0.8-3}{1.5}

        τ = -1.467 N m

b) angle at which fly wheel will turn

   \theta= \omega t +\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

   \theta= \dfrac{L}{I} t +\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\tau}{I}t^2

   \theta= \dfrac{3}{0.14}\times 1.5+\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{-1.467}{0.14}\times 1.5^2

        θ = 20.35 rad

c) work done on the wheel

     W = τ x θ

     W = -1.467 x 20.35 rad

    W = -29.86 J

d) average power of wheel

    P_{av} =-\dfrac{W}{t}

    P_{av} =-\dfrac{(-29.86)}{1.5}

     P_{av} =19.91\ W

velikii [3]
The velocity is a vectorial quantity, whereas speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it depends on the direction!
As such, the velocity is changing because the direction is changing.
