Answer:
a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.
Explanation:
Let be X the point where a ball rests at the top of a hill. By applying the Principle of Energy Conservation, the total energy in the physical system remains constant and gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill is equal to the sum of kinetic energy, a lower gravitational energy and dissipated work due to nonconservative forces (friction, dragging).
Conclusions are showed as follows:
a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.
b) The kinetic energy is the lowest at X and Z.
c) Total energy remains constant as the ball moves from X to Y.
Hence, the correct answer is A.
It only occurs when there is an electric current
NB: The diagram of the pulley system is not shown but the information provided is sufficient to answer the question
Answer:
Power = 2702.56 W
Explanation:
Let the power consumed be P
Energy expended = E = mgh
height, h = 5 m
E = 80 * 9.8 * 5
E = 3920 J
To calculate the time, t
From F = ma
F = 900 N
900 = 80 a
a = 900/80
a = 11.25 m/s²
From the equation of motion, 
The drill head starts from rest, u = 0 m/s
Power, P = E/t
P = 3920/0.0.943
P = 4157.79 W
But Efficiency, E = 0.65
P = 0.65 * 4157.79
Power = 2702.56 W
<span>Let's convert the speed to m/s:
speed = (55 mph) (1609.3 m / mile) (1 hour / 3600 seconds)
speed = 24.59 m/s
Let's convert the mass to kilograms:
mass = (2135 lb) (0.45359 kg / lb)
mass = 968.4 kg
We can find the kinetic energy KE:
KE = (1/2) m v^2
KE = (1/2) (968.4 kg) (24.59 m/s)^2
KE = 292780 joules
The kinetic energy of the automobile is 292780 joules.</span>
Answer:
40 N/m
Explanation:
F = -kx (This is the Hooke's Law equation)
F is the force the spring exerts = 8 N
-k = spring constant
x = displacement (The distance stretched past it's natural length) = 20cm
x needs to be in meters, and 20 cm is = to 0.2 meters
Finally:
8N = -k (0.2m)
-k = 8N / 0.2 m
k = -40 N/m
