A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The average power is calculated as 735.0 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Total mass, M = 1200 kg

Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950

Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m

Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s

Now,

To calculate the average power:

First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:

Force, F = (M - m)g = (1200 - 950)\times 9.8 = 2450 N

Now, the work done by this force:

W = Fd = 2450\times 54 = 132300\ J = 132.3\ kJ

Average power is given as:

P_{avg} = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{132300}{180} = 735.0\ W

A large, simple pendulum is on display in the lobby of the United Nations building. If the pendulum is 18.5 m in length, what is
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

     t = 1,144 s

Explanation:

The simple pendulum consists of an inextensible string with a mass at the tip, the angular velocity of this is

     w = √( L / g)

The angular velocity is related to the frequency and period

     w = 2π f

      f = 1 / T

     w = 2π / T

Let's replace

     2π / T = √ (L / g)

     T = 2π √ (g / L)

Let's calculate

     T = 2π √ (9.81 / 18.5)

     T = 4,576 s

The definition of period in the time it takes the ball to come and go to a given point (a revolution) in our case we go from the end to the middle point that is a quarter of the path

     t = T / 4

     t = 4,576 / 4

     t = 1,144 s
