A mover hoists a 50 kg box from the ground to a height of 2 m. What was the change in the box's energy

Physics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

980 J

Explanation:

The change in box's energy is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

\Delta U = m g \Delta h

where

m = 50 kg is the mass of the box

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

\Delta h= 2m is the change in height of the box

Substituting numbers, we find

\Delta U = (50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2 m)=980 J

Two small conducting point charges, separated by 0.4 m, carry a total charge of 200 C. They repel one another with a force of 12
Lunna [17]

Answer:

200 C

Explanation:

Let C1 and C2 be their charges. According to Coulomb's law

F_C = k\frac{C_1C_2}{R^2}

where k = 8.99\times10^9 nm^2/C^2 is the constant, R = 0.4m is the distance between them, F = 120 N is their resulting charge force

120 = 8.99\times10^9\frac{C_1C_2}{0.4^2}

C_1C_2 = \frac{120*0.4^2}{8.99\times10^9} = 2.13\times10^{-9}

Since their total charge is 200C:

C_1 + C_2 = 200 or C_1 = 200 - C_2

We can substitute the above equation

C_1C_2 = (200 - C_2)C_2 = 2.13\times10^{-9}

-C_2^2 +200C_2 - 2.13\times10^{-9} = 0

C= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

C= \frac{-200\pm \sqrt{(200)^2 - 4*(-1)*(-0.00000000213)}}{2*(-1)}

C= \frac{-200\pm200}{-2}

C = 1.06 \times 10^{-11} or C \approx 200

So the larger charge is C = 200 C

The "lead" in pencils is a graphite composition with a Young’s modulus of about 1×1010N/m21×1010⁢N/m2. Calculate the change in l
Tanya [424]

Answer:

b) 0.1 mm

Explanation:

Given that

E= 1 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

F= 4 N

d= 0.5 mm

L = 60 mm

We know that elongation due to force F given as

\Delta L=\dfrac{FL}{AE}

\Delta L=\dfrac{FL}{\dfrac{\pi d^2}{4}\times E}

\Delta L=\dfrac{4\times 60}{\dfrac{\pi \times 0.5^2}{4}\times 10^4}

ΔL = 0.12 mm

Therefore the answer is -

b) 0.1 mm

How does drag affect the cost of owning a car?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

You’ve probably noticed over the years that car design has become more streamlined. In other words, most consumer vehicles don’t look very boxy anymore. Some of this is due to aesthetics, but much of it is meant to decrease a vehicle’s drag coefficient. A cube has a high drag coefficient, whereas a teardrop has a low one.

By decreasing the drag coefficient, car makers are helping vehicles “slip” through air more easily. That reduces the amount of fuel needed to move the vehicle, and the difference shows up in your wallet and in the environment.
