Work done against the gravity = Total weight*Vertical distance covered.

Total weight = 170+10 = 180 lb
Vertical distance covered = 40 ft

Therefore,

Work done = 180*40 = 7200 lb-ft

What is the mathematical relationship between wavelength and energy transmission?.
Tomtit [17]

Answer: Wavelength is related to light and also related to energy. The shorter the wavelengths and the higher the frequency corresponds with greater energy. So the longer the wavelengths and lower the frequency results in lower energy. The energy equation is E = hν.

Is v2 = v1t+a dimensionally correct? Explain please!
Lady bird [3.3K]
You want v2 = v1 + at
v is measured in m/s, a in m/s2, and t in s.
the dimensions multiply like algebraic quantities. 
so because v2 is measured in m/s, then (v1 + at) has to come out in m/s
 the units for (v1 + at) are (m/s) + (m/s2)(s)
time "s" cancels out one acceleration "s", so it comes ut to (m/s) + (m/s), which = (m/s). 
if you had (v1t + a), then you would have (m/s)(s) + (m/s2) which = (m) + (m/s2), which doesn't work.

A volcano launches a lava bomb straight upward with an initial speed of 28m/s. Taking upward to be the positive direction,find s
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>The equation to be used here would be:

v = u - gt
 where u is the initial speed, g is the acceleration due to gravity and t is the time it takes

a) u = 28 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s^2, t = 2s
 
v = 28 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * 2s = 8.4 m/s after 2 s the lava bomb is still travelling upwards
 
b) u = 28 m/s g = 9.8 m/s^2 t = 3s
 
v = 28 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * 3s = -1.4 m/s after 3s the lave bomb is travelling downwards</span>
