<span>2.5 m/s going upward.
   In the situation described, Erica and Danny undergo a non-elastic collision which will conserve their combined momentum. Since Erica is stationary, her momentum is 0. And since Danny is moving upward at 4.7 m/s his momentum is 43 kg * 4.7 m/s = 202.1 kg*m/s. Assuming that both Erica and Danny will be moving as a joined system, their combined mass is 38 kg + 43 kg = 81 kg. Since the momentum will be the same, their velocity will be 202.1 kg*m/s / 81 kg = 2.495061728 m/s. Since we only have 2 significant figures in the provided data, rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives a velocity of 2.5 m/s going upward.</span>

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 10 m in 4 s?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

500 watts

Explanation:

Recall that the definition of power is the amount of energy delivered per unit of time.

In our case, the energy delivered is potential energy which we can estimate as the product of the weight of the object times the distance it is lifted above ground:

200 N x 10 m = 2000  Nm

then the power is the quotient of this potential energy divided the time it took to lift the object to that position:

Power = 2000 / 4   Nm/s = 500 Nm/s = 500 watts
