Energy in a spring:

E = 0.5 * k * x²

k spring constant = 800 n/m
x stretch of the spring = 5 cm = 0.05 m

E = 0.5 * 800 * 0.05² = 1

The third floor of a house is 8m above street level. How much work is needed to move a 136kg refrigerator to the third floor?

jonny [76]

m = Mass of the refrigerator to be moved to third floor = 136 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity by earth on the refrigerator being moved = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height to which the refrigerator is moved = 8 m

W = Work done in lifting the object

Work done in lifting the object is same as the gravitational potential energy gained by the refrigerator. hence

Work done = Gravitation potential energy of refrigerator

W = m g h

inserting the values

W = (136) (9.8) (8)

W = 10662.4 J

A bullet is fired into the air at an angle of 45°. How far does it travel before it is 1,000 feet above the ground? (Assume that

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

It travels 1414 feets.

Explanation:

Let's take the length the bullet travels l as the hypotenuse of a right triangle and the height it reaches one of its sides. Since we got the angle α at which it was fired and the height h it reached, we can calculate l using the sin(α) function:

$sin(\alpha )=\frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}\\sin(\alpha)=\frac{h}{l}\\l=\frac{h}{sin(\alpha)}$
