<h3>Answer:</h3>

  C)  500,000 J

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The change in potential energy is ...

  Mgh = (1000 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(50 m) = 490,000 J . . . . roughly matches C

_____

<em>Comments on the problem</em>

The efficiency of the motor is unknown, so the amount of energy spent as heat is unknown.

In the equation above, we have used M for mass, and m for meters. The acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.8 m/s^2, varying depending on location and height above the Earth. The "standard" value for g will add a few more joules to this value, but will not make it 500,000.

The answer would be 500,000 J

Since the change in the potential energy is:

Mgh = (1000 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(50 m) = 490,000 J  

This answer is close enough for 500,000 J to be the correct answer

Hope i helped!

Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes it's speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per sec
scoundrel [369]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

change in speed = (37 km/hr) - (89 km/hr) = -52 km/hr

Acceleration = (-52 km/hr) / (6 sec)

Acceleration = (-26/3) km/(hr·sec)

Units: (1/hr·sec) · (hr/3600 sec) = 1 / 3600 sec²

(-26/3) km/(hr·sec) = (-26/3) km/(3600 sec²)

= -26,000/(3 · 3600) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = -2.41 m/s²</em>

2. A woman prevents a 3kg brick from falling by pressing it against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction
Anettt [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

49 N

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of the brick as 3 kg
  • The coefficient of friction as 0.6

We are required to determine the force that must be applied by the woman so the brick does not fall.

  • We need to importantly note that;
  • For the brick not to fall the, the force due to gravity is equal to the friction force acting on the brick.
  • That is; Friction force = Mg

But; Friction force = μ F

Therefore;

μ F = mg

0.6 F = 3 × 9.8

0.6 F = 29.4

      F = 49 N

Therefore, she must use a force of 49 N

A proton has a charge of 1.6 × 10-19 C and a mass of 1.67 × 10-27 kg. A proton moves with velocity 1.8 × 105 m/s in the z-direct
lord [1]

Hey

So first we need to know what the direction of the force is, using your right hand rule point your right hand in the direction of the velocity. You're saying its the z direction, not telling me whether it's into the page or out? Since its a positive z im assuming its coming out. The magnetic field is pushing it upwards, so the force is going in the negative x direction.

The force of a magnetic field is

F = Qv X B

What's weird is that you don't need mass in this equation. Actually you don't even need the formula, its telling you that they're all going in perpendicar directions. the answer is 90 degrees.

Now if you want to know the F just multiply the charge, velocity and magnetic field .

F = GVB

F = 6.048 E -15

Answer : 90 degrees, sin(90) = 1
