It is Pluto !! The PE is mgh !!

As mass is constant everywhere and height is given 1 m thus the value of g determines the PE !!

So g is least on Pluto thus the PE will be least !!

Do you remember the formula for potential energy ?

PE = (mass) (gravity) (height)

If the mass and the height are always the same, then the least PE comes from the least gravity. Surely you can find THAT in the table.

A 1500 kg elevator, suspended by a single cable with tension 16.0 kN, is measured to be moving upward at 1.2 m/s. Air resistance

kirill115 [55]

Tension in the Cable is 0.87 m/s6^2, Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m is 1.6*10^5 N, Work done by gravity is 1.47 * 10^3 N, Elevator Kinetic Energy is 13897.5J and Elevator Speed after rising to 10m is 4.312 m/s.

Tension is a pulling force that operates in one dimension along the cables' axes in the opposite direction from the direction of the applied force. The combined weight of the elevator box and the passenger riding inside it, in the case of an elevator, provides the pulling force in the cables is called Tension.

A moving object or particle's kinetic energy, which depends on both mass and speed, is one of its characteristics. The type of motion can be vibration, translation, rotation around an axis, or any combination of these. Kinetic energy is a type of energy that an item or particle possesses as a result of motion.

We know that,

Tension in the Cable

T = m(g+a) = g+a = T/m = 16 * 103 / 1500 = 10.67 m/s2

a = 10.67 - 9.8 = 0.87 m/s6^2

Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m.

U^2 = u^2 +2as

= 1.22 +2*0.87*10

=1.6*10^5 N

Work done by gravity = mg * 10 = 14700 * 10 = 1.47 * 10^3 N

Elevator Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2*1500*18.53 = 13897.5J

Elevator Speed after rising to 10m ,

U^2 = u^2 +2as = 1.2 +2*0.87*10 = 18.6

U =(18.6)^1/2=4.312 m/s

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?

pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.

Given the information below, estimate the total distance travelled during these 6 seconds using a left endpoint approximation. t

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

184 feets

Explanation:

Given the data:

time (sec) __ velocity (ft/sec)

0 __________30

1 __________ 54

2 __________56

3 __________34

4 __________ 8

5 __________ 2

6 __________22

Using left end approximation:

(0,1) ___ f(0) = 30

(1,2) ___ f(1) = 54

(2,3) ___f(2) = 56

(3,4) ___f(3) = 34

(4,5) ___f(4) = 8

(5,6) __ f(5) = 2

Hence, the Total distance traveled during the 6 second interval is:

Change ; dT = 1

1 * (30 + 54 + 56 + 34 + 8 + 2) = 184

In unit-vector notation, what is the torque about the origin on a particle located at coordinates (0 m, −3.0 m, 2.0 m) due to fo

irinina [24]

Answer:

The torque about the origin is $2.0Nm\hat{i}-8.0Nm\hat{j}-12.0Nm\hat{k}$

Explanation:

Torque $\overrightarrow{\tau}$ is the cross product between force $\overrightarrow{F}$ and vector position $\overrightarrow{r}$ respect a fixed point (in our case the origin):

$\overrightarrow{\tau}=\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}$

There are multiple ways to calculate a cross product but we're going to use most common method, finding the determinant of the matrix:

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-\left[\begin{array}{ccc} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k}\\ F1_{x} & F1_{y} & F1_{z}\\ r_{x} & r_{y} & r_{z}\end{array}\right]$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((F1_{y}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{y})\hat{i}-(F1_{x}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{x})\hat{j}+(F1_{x}r_{y}-F1_{y}r_{x})\hat{k})$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((0(2.0m)-0(-3.0m))\hat{i}-((4.0N)(2.0m)-(0)(0))\hat{j}+((4.0N)(-3.0m)-0(0))\hat{k})$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}=-2.0Nm\hat{i}+8.0Nm\hat{j}+12.0Nm\hat{k}=\overrightarrow{\tau}$
