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?

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.

A photon detector captures a photon with an energy of 4.29 ✕ 10−19 J. What is the wavelength, in nanometers, of the photon?
serious [3.7K]

Answer :  The wavelength of photon is, 4.63\times 10^{2}nm

Explanation : Given,

Energy of photon = 4.29\times 10^{-19}J

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

As, \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

So, E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

\lambda = wavelength of photon  = ?

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

4.29\times 10^{-19}J=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{\lambda}

\lambda=4.63\times 10^{-7}m=4.63\times 10^{-7}\times 10^9nm=4.63\times 10^{2}nm

Conversion used : 1nm=10^{-9}m

Therefore, the wavelength of photon is, 4.63\times 10^{2}nm

A 5.0 kg object moving at 5.0 m/s. KE = mv2 times 1/2
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: KE = 62.5J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of object = 5kg

kinetic energy KE = ?

velocity of object = 5m/s

Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2

KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25

KE = 62.5J

Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.

astra-53 [7]
Managing and looking after a port environment. They were also vegetarian. Smoke led to pollution, so there were laws passed that factories could not be built where other buildings could be affected. There were also water systems and sewage systems that carried water to people and carried sewage away from people who could afford it at the time.

The density of silver is 10.5 g cm3. a piece of silver with a mass of 61.3 g would ovvupy a volume of ?
natali 33 [55]
The relationship between mass m, volume V and density d is:
d= \frac{m}{V}
The silver has density d=10.5 g/cm^3, and the mass of the piece of silver is m=61.3 g. Therefore we can calculate its volume using the previous formula:
V= \frac{m}{d}= \frac{61.3 g}{10.5 g/cm^3}=5.84 cm^3
