Given: Work W = 44 J;   Mass of the rope and the bucket  m= 1.5 Kg

Required: Find the height in meters  

Formula: Work = Force x distance   but  Force = Weight = mg  g = 9.8 m/s²

W =Fd  W = mgh    h = W/mg  

h = 44 J/(1.5 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)

h = 2.99 m or 3 m

A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward
kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C

Before Freddy lands on the skateboard it has a certain momentum. After landing, the skateboards momentum
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

remains the same

Explanation:

Momentum refers to the quantity of motion of a body. When any body of mass moves, it possess momentum. Numerically,

Momentum =  mass x velocity

i.e. momentum is the product of the mass x velocity

Momentum of a body is always conserved.

In the context, the skateboard has certain momentum before Freddy lands on it. After Freddy lands, the momentum of skateboard remains the same, there is no change in the momentum.

This is because, here the momentum is conserved. After Freddy lands on the skateboard, the total mass on the skateboard increases and so the velocity decreases making the momentum same before the landing.

Question #6a) You were told to assume that the ball bounced to a height of 1.2 m and that the distance between the bounces measu
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the problem they give the case of a ball that bounces on the vertical axis the height is getting smaller, on the x axis it is the same distance all the time.

Questions about the aspect of the x-axis

- Since the distance traveled between the rebounds is the same, the speed must be the same or constant throughout the entire journey.

- Since the distance and speed are equal, the time between rebounds is the same

- There can be no acceleration because the bounce gap should change, the acceleration is zero all the time

Questions about the Y axis

- The vertical speed of the first boat would be the greatest of all, so it has the highest height

b) Evidence or not Evidence

1  evidence, because the graphs are different, one is a straight line and he gives a parable

2 no evidence, nothing involved on the x axis

3  no evidence, the acceleration on the y axis is independent of the acceleration on the x axis

4  no evidence, the time that is cast is the only change that is the same for both movements

5  evidence, the fact that no mixture of components is found allows the variable to be separated into different equations

6  no evidence, says nothing about the x-axis
