A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro

pe that has a mass of 0.2 kg/m. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 18 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building. Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope=.2\frac{kg}{m}

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as,W_{1}=Force \times displacement

=\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx ..............(1)

=.1\times 15^2

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as,W_{2}=Force \times displacement

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx.................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m=\frac{20-18}{15-0}

m=.133

Therefore,

F=.133x+2

Put value of F in equation 2

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx

W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,W=W_{1}+W_{2}

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm

How and why does the distance between 2 electrodes affect the rate of electrolysis? ...?
Rasek [7]
 <span>Nothing, in terms of the chemistry. 

The distance between the electrodes affects the electrical resistance very slightly. Increasing the distance increases the resistance and reduces the current slightly, which reduces slightly the amount of product. 

For most practical applications, for electrolysis done in a beaker, varying the distance between the electrodes will make little difference. 

Increasing the concentration of the electrolyte will increase the current flow because there are more charged particles to carry charge, and increase the product yield.</span>

What decreases the chance that the evidence of life will be left when something dies?
ahrayia [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>Quick Decomposition</h2>

In the initial stage of death, the rest of our body starts decaying, albeit at various rates according to which step decomposition is in. The rates at which our bodies tear apart depends on a variety of circumstances, including the environment, the causes of death, and the state of our individual bodies.
