Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of crane m=1400\ kg

distance moved d=40\ m

Since it is moving with a constant velocity therefore net force on it is zero

Tension force=weight

T=mg

Work done by Tension T is

W_T=T\cdot d

W_T=1400\times 9.8\cdot 40

W_T=548.8\ KJ

Work done by Gravity will be equal in magnitude but opposite in sign and can be obtained by work energy theorem which states that change in kinetic energy of object is equal to work done by all the forces

W_T+W_g=0

W_g=-548.8\ KJ

How much work is done if a 50N weight is lifted to a height of 10m? ​
borishaifa [10]

500J  

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the body = 50N

Height = 10m

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Solution;

Work done is the force that moves a body through a particular distance in the direction of the force.

In this problem, we can solve the problem by relating work done to the potential energy used in lifting the mass.

  The weight on a body, a force in the presence of gravity

         weight(weight) = mg

  where m = mass of body

              g = acceleration due to gravity

  Work done = Fxd

   Where F = force on the body

               d = distance moved

Potential energy = mgh

    where h is the height

     P.E = work done =  Weight x height = 50 x 10 = 500J

How much energy is required to change a 39.0-g ice cube from ice at -14.0°c to steam at 108°c?
Ann [662]
Heat is added to the mass as follows:
Q_-14-0 = mC_iΔT = 39*2.06*(0--14) = 39*2.06*14 = 1124.76 J
Q_0 = mC_f = 39*334 = 13026 J
Q_0-100 = mC_wΔT = 39*4.18*100 = 16302 J
Q_100 = mC_v = 39*2230 = 86970 J
Q_100-108 = mC_sΔT = 39*2.03*(108-100) = 39*2.03*8  = 633.36J

Q = Summation of all the heats added = 1124.76+13026+16302+86970+633.36 = 118056.12 J ≈ 118.06 kJ

What is the net work done on the 20kg block while it moves the 4 meters?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 784.8 J. None of your answer, did you forget some information?

Explanation:

Data

mass = 20 kg

distance = 4 m

work = ?

Formula

Work = force x distance

Force = mass x gravity

Process

1.- Calculate the weight of the block

     Weight = 20 x 9.81

     Weight = 196.2 N

2.- Calculate the work done

     Work = 196.2 x 4

     Work = 784.8 J
