Answer: Workdone293.02KJ

Explanation: The equation to use to calculate Workdone = Change in KE + Change in PE

Assuming velocity is constant,KE becomes 0

Workdone= Change in PE=mg

W=92×9.8×325=293.02KJ

What is the difference between a physical change and a chemical change
Contact [7]
A physical change in something doesn't change what the it is. For example, if you break glass, it will still be glass. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new thing is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed. For example, when you burn a log. The carbon in the log is reacting to the oxygen to create ashe and smoke

Two identical blocks are attached to the same massless rope, which is strung around two massless, frictionless pulleys. A massle
Alik [6]

Answer:

The value of mass 1, m1= 6/5m

The value of mass 2, m2= 3/5m

Explanation:

case 1:

here tension and the acceleration will be:

for m1;

  • mg-T=ma
  • 2mg - 2T = 2ma  .....1.

for m2:

  • 2T-mg = ma/2 ..... 2.

adding the both equations,

2mg - 2T + 2T-mg = 2ma + ma/2

a = 2/5 g

putting the value of a into the equation 1.

mg - T = m* (2/5)g

T = 3/5 ( mg )

now

case 2:

The two identical blocks are released from the rest, the tension remains the same as the case 1.

so,

for m1:

  • 2T-m2g=0

for m2:

  • 2m2g - 2T =0

adding both equations we get,

2T-m2g + 2m2g - 2T = 0

m2 = m1 / 2

T = m1*g / 2

here we know that

T (case1) = T (case2)

3/5 ( mg ) = m1*g / 2

m1 = 6/5 m

hence

m2 = 3/5 m
