How much force is needed to lift a 25-kg mass at a constant verlocity?

Physics

Troyanec [42]3 years ago

-- In order to achieve constant verlocity, the net force on the mass must be zero.  So if there ARE any forces acting on it, they must be balanced.

-- There is already a force on the mass that can't be eliminated . . . the force of gravity.

-- That force due to gravity is (mass x gravity) = (25 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = <em><u>245N</u></em> in the <u><em>downward</em></u> direction.

-- In order to 'balance' the forces and make them add up to zero, we have to provide another force of <em>245N</em>, all in the <em>upward</em> direction.

-- Then the forces on the object will be balanced, the NET force on it will be zero, and whichever way you start it moving, it will continue to move at a cornstant verlocity.

The lowest point in Death Valley is 85 m below sea level. The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m.What is th
mario62 [17]

Answer:

\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Depth of Death valley is 85 m below sea level, h_i=-85\ m

The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m, h_f=4420\ m

Mass of the hiker, m = 65 kg

We need to find the change in potential energy. It is given by :

\Delta E=mg(h_f-h_i)

\Delta E=65\times 9.8(4420-(-85))

\Delta E=2869685\ J

or

\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J

So, the change in potential energy of the hiker is 2.87\times 10^6\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.

Assume that the amplifiers on the stage operate at a combined power of 5,000 Watts, and that 80% of this is converted to sound.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Fraction of power converted to sound = 80% = 0.08

Fraction incident upon each eardrum onstage = 0.08/2 = 0.04

Any two application of gravity
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.

Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.

The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.

Hope that helps.
