Answer:

2587.2 J.

Explanation:

From potential energy,

The work done to lift the chain = potential energy of the chain.

W = mgh............... Equation 1

Where W = work done to lift the chain, m = mass of the chain, g = acceleration due to gravity of the chain, h = height of the chain.

But,

m = m'd............... Equation 2

Where m' = density of the chain, d = length of the chain.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

W = m'dgh................ Equation 3

Given: m' = 2 kg/m, d = 12 m, h = 11 m, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

W = 2(12)(11)(9.8)

W = 2587.2 J.

Why is the unit of momentum called derived unit​
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

the SI unit of momentum is :- kg.ms-1

and we know that,

kinetic energy = 1/2 mv2

E=p2/2m

p=(2Em)1/2

so the derived units are (J.kg)1/2

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object  = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object  = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

 Acceleration  = \frac{12}{49}   = 0.25m/s²

Which statement accurately describes a relationship between parts of the
sammy [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

C. There are trillions of galaxies in the universe.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A. is wrong as nebulae are found inside galaxies and inside the universe, not inside stars.

B. is wrong because there are trillions of galaxies in the universe, not the latter.

D. The solar system consists of the eight planets, the Sun, comets, meteors, dwarf planets, and is inside the Milky Way galaxy and thus cannot have galaxies inside it.

Neporo4naja [7]
A motion security line is a system that is used to detect motion.
The input for the system is MOTION and the output is LIGHT. That is, when the system detects motion it switch on light.
Remember, an Input is the information that was inserted into a system while the output is the result of the processed information.
