The loaded cab of an elevator has a mass of 3.0 x 10 3 kg and moves 200 m up the shaft in 20 s at constant speed. At what averag
Alexeev081 [22]

The average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass, m = 3000 kg</em>
  • <em>height, h = 200 m</em>
  • <em>time of motion, t = 20 s</em>

The average rate at which the cable does work is calculated as follows;

P = \frac{E}{t} \\\\P = \frac{mgh}{t} \\\\P = \frac{3000 \times 9.8 \times 200}{20} \\\\P = 294,000 \ J/s

Thus, the average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

What is the magnitude of the speed of a person at the equator due to rotational speed of the Earth?
notka56 [123]
The circumference of the Earth at the equator is listed as 24,901 miles.
So his speed is

                     24,901 miles per day.

Convert it to units that we have a better feel for:

                   (24,901 mi/da) x (1 da / 24 hrs)

             =    (24,901 / 24)  (miles/hour)

             =  about  1,038 miles per hour.

You'll find a huge number of people on the internet these days,
telling you that you could not be moving at that speed and not
feel it, so therefore the Earth is not spinning, and it's not a globe.

I have a lot of feelings and comments about those people, their
lines of reasoning, and their levels of education and intelligence,
so don't get me started.

I just want to guarantee you that everything you're learning about
the Earth and the solar system in school is well founded, and it's
all based on the life's work of some of the smartest people of the
past 300 years of human history.  Everything you're taught about
the Earth has good reasons behind it, whereas those other people
have nothing.

A person on Earth's equator is moving from west to east at roughly
1,038 miles per hour, relative to any point on the Earth's rotation axis.
