Compute the work performed when 32 pounds is lifted 10 feet.

1 answer:

7 0

W = force * displacement
W = 32 pounds * 10 feet
Now you need to convert it to newton and meters
W = 142 N * 3.048 m = 434 J
(I approximated the conversions- I hope it helps)

A grape is thrown straight up in the air. If it was thrown at 2 m/s, how high will it go in the air?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Answer: Height is 0.204 m

Explanation:

At the highest point, it is called the maximum height.

• From third newton's equation of motion:

${ \rm{ {v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2gs}}$

• At maximum height, v is zero

• u is initial speed

• g is -9.8 m/s²

• s is the height

${ \rm{0 {}^{2} = {2}^{2} - (2 \times 9.8 \times s)}} \\ \\ { \rm{4 = 19.6s}} \\ \\ { \rm{s = 0.204 \: m}}$

What is the net force at the equilibrium point? Derive an equation for the location of the equilibrium point based on the accele

Vitek1552 [10]

To find a general equilibrium point for a spring based on the hook law, it is possible to start from the following premise:

Hook's law is given by:

$F = k\Delta X$

Where,

k= Spring Constant

$\Delta X =$ Change in Length

F = Force

When there is a Mass we have two force acting at the System:

W= mg

Where W is the force product of the weigth. Then the force net can be defined as,

$F_{net} = F+W$

But we have a system in equilibrium, so

$0 = K\Delta X -mg$

We find the equilibrium for any location when

$\Delta X = \frac{mg}{k}$
