The pirate ship tie at the amusement park is a giant pendulum that riders sit in. It swings back and forth, with a maximum veloc

ity of 20 m/s. If the combined mass of the ride and the passengers is 8000 kg, what is the maximum height of the boat?

Law of conservation of energy states that KE=PE, so

1/2*mv^2=mgh,

1/2*v^2=gh,

h=v^2/2g=20^2/(2*9.8)=20.41 m

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

A rotating water pump works by taking water in at one side of a rotating wheel, and expelling it from the other side. If a pump
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s

angular acceleration, α = 30.5 rad/s²

time, t = 9 s

radius, r = 0.120 m

let the velocity is v after time 9 s.

Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = ωo + αt

ω = 0 + 30.5 x 9

ω = 274.5 rad/s

v = rω

v = 0.120 x 274.5

v = 32.94 m/s

Fiona claims that the diagram below shows simple machines, but Chad claims that it shows a compound machine.
Elza [17]

Answer:

Simple machine

Explanation:

It is a simple machine because the person wants to raise the load by an inclined plane. Simple machines perform work with the mechanical advantage offered by the machine itself, such as using a bar as Lever, lifting a load by means of a pulley. simple machines multiply or change direction a force. While Composite machines are the Union of several simple machines that perform a given job, examples of combined machines are found on bicycles, a washing machine, a car, and others.
