Answer:
(a). Energy is 64,680 J
(b) velocity is 51.43m/s
(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph
Explanation:
(a).
The potential energy
of the payload of mass
is at a vertical distance
is
.
Therefore, for the payload of mass
at a vertical distance of
, the potential energy is


(b).
When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,




(c).
The velocity in mph is


Answer: a) 0.78 m/s b) 1.57 m/s
Explanation:
M = father's mass
m = son's mass = M/3
V = father's initial speed
v = son's initial speed
(1/2)MV^2 = (1/2)*(1/2)*m v^2
M*V^2 = (1/2)(M/3)v^2
V^2/v^2 = 1/4
V = v/2
Second equation:
(1/2)M*(V + 1.4)^2 = (1/2)m*v^2
= (1/2)*(M/3)*(3V)^2
cancel out the M's and (1/2)'s
(V + 1.4)^2 = 3V^2
V^2 + 2.8V + 1.96 = 3V^2
V^2 -1.4V -0.98 = 0
V^2 = 0.98/0.4 = 2.45
V = 1.57
Answer:
B. There is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.
Explanation:
From the table, the values of force increases with increase in the value of mass.
if 5kg=25 N
Finding the contant of proportionality k;
k=25/5=5
thus M=k(F)...........where M is mass in kg and F is force in newton, then
M=5F
This show that for every value of mass, we get the value of Force if we multiply by a contant k=5
This means there is a direct proportionality relation between mass and force in the table.
