Answer: 1925 joules

Explanation:

weight of man = 550 N

height climbed = 3.5m

Work = ?

Since, work is done when the man pulled his weight over the height; work is expressed as the product of weight and height climbed

i.e Workdone = 550N x 3.5m

= 1925 joules

Thus, the man did a work of 1925 joules while climbing

Answer:

v_f=8.17\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

First, we calculate the work done by this force after the box traveled 14 m, which is given by:

W=\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)} \, dx \\W=\int\limits^{14}_{0} ({18N-0.530\frac{N}{m}x}) \, dx\\W=[(18N)x-(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{x^2}{2}]^{14}_{0}\\W=(18N)14m-(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{(14m)^2}{2}-(18N)0+(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{0^2}{2}\\W=252N\cdot m-52N\cdot m\\W=200N\cdot m

Since we have a frictionless surface, according to the the work–energy principle, the work done by all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle, that is:

W=\Delta K\\W=K_f-K_i\\W=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}

The box is initially at rest, so v_i=0. Solving for v_f:

v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2W}{m}}\\v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2(200N\cdot m)}{6kg}}\\v_f=\sqrt{66.67\frac{m^2}{s^2}}\\v_f=8.17\frac{m}{s}

evablogger [386]

Monoammonium phosphate effectively smothers the fire, while sodium bicarbonate induces a chemical reaction which extinguishes the fire. Fire extinguishers with a Class C rating are suitable for fires in “live” electrical equipment.
