An engine is used to lift a beam weighing 9,800 N up to 145 m. How much work must the engine do to lift this beam? How much work

must be done to lift it 290 m?
Physics

Arturiano [62]4 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the engine used to lift a beam, W = 9800 N

Distance, d = 145 m

Work done by the engine to lift the beam is given by :

W = F d

W=9800\ N\times 145\ m\\\\W=1421000\ J\\\\W=1421\ kJ

Let W' is the work must be done to lift it 290 m. It is given by :

W'=9800\ N\times 290\ m\\\\W'=2842000\ J\\\\W'=2842\ kJ

Hence, this is the required solution.

What are gamma rays and what are its uses??<br>​
sukhopar [10]

"Gamma rays" is the name that we call the shortest of all electromagnetic waves.  They're shorter than radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, heat waves, visible light waves, ultraviolet waves, and X-rays.  They extend all the way down to waves that are as short as the distance across an atom.

Being so short, they carry lots of energy.  They can penetrate many materials, and they can damage living cells and DNA.  They're dangerous.

The sun puts out a lot of gamma radiation.  The atmosphere (air) filters out a lot of it, otherwise there couldn't even be any life on Earth.  

As soon as astronauts fly out of the atmosphere, they need a lot of shielding from gamma rays.

You know the precautions we take when we're around X-rays.  The same precautions apply around gamma rays, only a lot more so.

It's only in the past several years that we've learned how to MAKE gamma rays without blowing things up.  Also, how to control them, and how to use them for medical and industrial applications.

Earth's gravity acts upon objects with a steady force of __________.
luda_lava [24]
None of the choices is a force. 'a' and 'b' are speeds. 'C' and 'd' are accelerations. ... The steady force of gravity is 9.8 newtons PER KILOGRAM of mass. ... The question is written by someonewho very much wants to discourage anyone interested in Physics.

How much potential energy does a 40-N medicine ball gain when it is lifted 5 m?
777dan777 [17]
We know, Potential Energy = Force * Height
Here, F = 40 N
h = 5 m

Substitute their values, 
U = 40 * 5
U = 200 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!
