A loaded elevator has a mass of 2.50 x 10^3 kg and is raised in 10.0s to a height of 50.0 m. How many kilowatts are required?

Physics

Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

122.5 kW

Explanation:

m = mass of the loaded elevator = 2.50 x 10³ kg = 2500 kg

t = time taken to raise the elevator = 10.0 s

h = height gained by the elevator = 50.0 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Power spent is given as

P = \frac{mgh}{t}

Inserting the values

P = \frac{(2500) (9.8) (50.0)}{10.0}

P = 122500 Watt

P = 122.5 kW                                             (Since 1 kW = 1000 W)

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

A 720 kg roller-coaster starts off from Location A. Assuming friction does not impede the car's motion, what will be the change
vaieri [72.5K]
We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:

ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)

Hope this helps!

Physics in motion Unit 6A The nature of waves
Daniel [21]

#1

length of one complete wave shape is known as wavelength

#2

Frequency is defined as number of oscillations per second or number of waves passing through a point in one second.

#3

One Time period is the time to cover one complete wavelength distance by the wave

#4

relation between time period and frequency is given as

f = \frac{1}{T}

#5

Time period of simple pendulum is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

so it depends on length of pendulum and acceleration due to gravity

#6

amplitude of the wave is the height above the axis to which particle can attain its maximum position or its maximum height on y axis is amplitude
