If you perform 40 J of work lifting a 10-N box from the floor to a shelf, how high is the shelf?

Physics

Kaylis [27]3 years ago

Before anything, if you are lifting the Work value have to be negative, reason is because the formula to the work of the weight is:

w = p \times d \times cos \:  \theta
*Photo to help you to visualize. (P = Weight Force, F = Force)

If you are lifting, you are exercising a force that opposes the Weight Force, Force up (lifting) and Weight Force down (gravity pulling).
This forms a 180 angle and the cos 180 = -1.

Well let's do the question:

Work (W) = -40 J (Joule = Kg x m^2/s^2)
(negative, explanation given)

Weight Force (P) = 10 N (Newton = kg x m/s^2)

Distance (D) = ?

W = P x d x cos theta

-> -40 = 10 x d x -1
-> -40 = -10 x d
-> d = -40/-10 (J/N)
-> d = 4 meters

d =j  \div n \\ d = ((kg \times  {m}^{2} ) \div  {s}^{2}) \div ((kg \times m) \div  {s}^{2}) \\ d = m \: (meters)

As an object sinks in a fluid, the buoyant force ____.
kiruha [24]
Beginning when the bottom of the object first touches the water,
and as it descends and more and more of it goes under, the
buoyant force on it increases during that time.

As soon as the object is completely underwater, it doesn't matter
how deep under it is, the buoyant force on it remains the same.

If a child needs interventional service, he or she might have _____.
weqwewe [10]

Answer

Correct Answer is B,D, F and G

Explanation:

If a kid has any type of delays in his physical or mental growth then he need intervention service.

For example if a kid is not able to walk after 18 month, if a kid is not able to speak properly after 3 years, if a kid of 5 years age has lack of response to typical efforts to engage him in an interaction then these kids need intervention service.

imagine that 501 people are present in a movie theater of volume 8.00 x10^3 that is sealed shut so no air can escape. Each perso
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The temperature of air will increase by \Delta T=41044.967\ K

Explanation:

Given:

  • no. of person in a theater, n=501
  • volume of air in the theater, V=8\times 10^3\ m^3
  • rate of heat given off by each person, P=110\ J.s^{-1}
  • duration of movie, t=2\ hr=7200\ s
  • initial pressure in the theater, p_i=1.01\times 10^5\ Pa
  • initial temperature in the theater, T_i=20+273=293\ K
  • specific heat capacity of air at the given conditions, c=1.0061\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

<u>The total quantity of heat released by the total people in the theater during the movie:</u>

Q=n.P.t

Q=501\times 110\times 7200

Q=396792000\ J

<u>Form the relation of heat capacity:</u>

Q=m.c.\Delta T

∵p_i.V=m.R.T

Q=(\frac{p_i.V}{R.T}) \times c\times (T_f-T_i)

396792000=(\frac{1.01\times 10^5\times 8\times 10^3}{287\times 293}) \times 1.0061\times (T_f-293)

T_f=41337.967\ K

Change in temperature of air:

\Delta T=41044.967\ K
