First, we need to convert Wh to joules. This can be easily done. Wh means that you are doing 1W of work per hour. We need to find out how much work this is.
1Wh=1\cdot3600J\\ 120Wh=120\cdot 3600J=432$KJ
We lost 60% of this energy on friction and other losses which means that this leaves us with:
E=432\cdot0.4=172.8KJ
We are going to use this energy to do work against the force of gravity. This means that when we reach our maximum height all of our energy will be used and thus converted the potential energy in the gravitational field.
E=mgh\\ 
h= \frac{E}{mg}=\frac{172.8\cdot 10^3}{890}=194,16m

A pendulum on a planet, where gravitational acceleration is unknown, oscillates with a time period 5 sec. If the mass is increas
olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We have, a pendulum on a planet, oscillates with a time period 5 sec. The formula used to find the time period is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}

l is length of the pendulum

g is acceleration due to gravity on which it is placed

It is clear that, the time period of pendulum is independent of the mass. Hence, if the mass is increased six times, its time period remains the same.

Q17: The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is a = 11 x 10-6 / °C. A steel
krek1111 [17]

Solution:

The coefficient of volume expansion

p = ΔV/V1Δt

3a = V2-V1/V1Δt

Given

a = = 11 x 10-6 / °C

V2 is the final volume

V1 is the initial volume = 100cm³

Δt = 100-0 = 100°C

Substitute

3(11 x 10-6) = V2-100/100(100)

33*10^-6 * 10000 = V2-100

33*10^-2 = V2-100

V2 = 100 + 0.33

V2 = 100.33

Hence the new volume is 100.33cm³
