Can 200 watts lift a 100 kg box,and if so how long would it take?

The only definite number we can tell you is that in order to lift
a 100kg box, you have to somehow provide a force of about
980 newtons (about 220 pounds) pointing upward.  That's the
weight of the box, and you have to lift with at least that much force
just to get the box off the ground.

After that, the answer to your question is 'YES'.  The time it takes
depends on how much force you have available, how far you want
to lift the box, and how fast.

Here are the Physics formulas you have to use:

-- The amount of "Work" you'll do is

    (the amount of force you use) times (how far up you lift the box) .

-- The "Power" (amount of watts) you'll use is

    (the amount of 'work' you do) divided by (the length of time it takes).  

So ...

-- The higher you lift the box, the more 'work' your lift-machine does.

-- The faster the box is lifted, the more 'power' your lift-machine needs.

The speed of light is 3 x 108 m/s (300,000,000 m/s). A light wave has a wavelength of 400 nm (0.0000004 m). What is the frequenc
kirill115 [55]

Explanation:

velocity = wavelength × frequency

3×10⁸ = 400/10⁹ × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10¹⁵ /400

Suppose that you measure the light of a star between 640 and 680 nm and you get a very strong peak around 650 nm. what can you s
Llana [10]

Answer: The star is moving away from Earth

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining what the Doppler shift is:

This is related to the Doppler effect and refers to the change in a wave perceived frequency (or wavelength=color) when the emitter of the waves, and the observer move relative to each other.  

From there, it is deduced that the farther the object is, the more redshifted it is in its spectrum. For example, as a star moves away from the Earth, its espectrum turns towards the <u>red</u> and as the star moves toward the Earth, its espectrum turns towards the <u>blue</u>.

In this sense, since the peak in wavelength is around 650 nm, which corresponds to red, it can be said the star is moving away from Earth.

In order for the ball to be able to make a complete circle around the peg, there must be sufficient speed at the top of its arc
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension in the swing

At top point mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

where v=velocity needed to complete circular path

r=distance between point of  rotation to the ball center=L+\frac{d}{2} (d=diameter of ball)

Th-resold velocity is given by mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}

To get the velocity at bottom conserve energy at Top and bottom

At top E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}

Energy at Bottom E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}

Comparing two as energy is conserved

v_0^2=4gr+gr

v_0^2=5gr

v_0=\sqrt{5gr}

v_0=\sqrt{5g\left ( \frac{d}{2}+L\right )}

EleoNora [17]
Hi Spycn2115


Newton's first law states that objects in motion stay in motion until an unbalanced force is acted upon it is a good fact. When I first personally heard of it in class I had no clue but when I researched it I learned that one good example of this would be those cradle balls and if u swing it, it will keep constantly hitting each other back and fourth over and over until someone grabs it and stops it, so that's what objects in motion stays in motion until an unbalanced force is acted upon it means, because the balls are in motion by moving left to right constantly and its staying in motion by not stopping and that unbalanced force is someone or something maybe hitting it or knocking it over could stop it, balanced means staying still and equal, unbalanced means unstill so moving, the cradle balls are KE and PE, (Kinect and potential energy) because kinetic means moving, so the balls are moving, and potential means stored up, so before u even swing u have the potential energy to swing it different ways before it becomes kinetic. That's one of my favorite examples of Newton's first law and I left you a pic below of cradle balls to help you get the idea.
