Potential energy relative to the surface is

         (mass) x (<span>acceleration due to gravity) x (height above the surface).

At 1.0 meter above the surface, that is

</span>          (mass) x (<span>acceleration due to gravity) x (1.0 meter) .

The object's mass doesn't change, so the only thing that has any effect
on its potential energy at 1 meter above the surface is the acceleration
of gravity or, in other words, the surface of <em><u>what</u></em> ?

A block of mass m = 4.8 kg slides from left to right across a frictionless surface with a speed Vi=7.3m/s. It collides with a bl
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The speed of the 11.5kg block after the collision is V≅4.1 m/s

Explanation:

ma= 4.8 kg

va1= 7.3 m/s

va2= - 2.5 m/s

mb= 11.5 kg

vb1= 0 m/s

vb2= ?

vb2= ( ma*va1 - ma*va2) / mb

vb2= 4.09 m/s ≅ 4.1 m/s

A uniform ladder 5.0 m long rests against a frictionless, vertical wall with its lower end 3.0 m from the wall. The ladder weigh
DiKsa [7]

Answer:(a)360N,(b)171N,(c)2.702m

Explanation:

(a)Maximum Friction Force =\mu \left ( N\right )=0.4\times \left ( 740+160\right )

=360 N

cos\theta =\frac{3}{5}

sin\theta =\frac{4}{5}

(b)Moment about Ground Point

740\times 1\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta

N_1tan\theta =1140

N_1=171 N

N_1=f=171 N

(c)

740\times x\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta

Here maximum friction force can be 360 N

Therefore N_1=360 N

Where x is the maximum distance moved by man along the ladder

360\times 5\times \frac{4}{3}=740x+160\times 2.5

740x=2000

x=2.702m
