Answer:

4086 J

Explanation:

The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff

Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance

mgh-Fh= 0.5mv^{2}= KE

Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be

KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J

A fire helicopter carries a 700-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee
rodikova [14]

Answer:

F = 50636.873 N

Explanation:

given,

bucket of water =  700-kg

length of cable = 20 m

Speed  = 40 m/s

angle of the cable = 38.0°

let air resistance be = F

tension in rope be = T

T cos 38° = m×g..................(1)

T sin 38^0= \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F..........(2)

equation (1)/(2)

tan 38^0 =\dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}

       0.781=\dfrac{\dfrac{700\times 40^2}{20} + F}{700\times 9.8}

           F = 50636.873 N

Hence the force exerted on the bucket is equal to F = 50636.873 N

Answer:

 F = - k (x-xo) a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.

Explanation:

The student wants to prove hooke's law which has the form

          F = - k (x-xo)

To do this we hang the spring in a vertical position and mark the equilibrium position on a tape measure, to simplify the calculations we can make this point zero by placing our reference system in this position.

Now for a series of known masses let's get them one by one and measure the spring elongation, building a table of weight vs elongation,

we must be careful when hanging the weights so as not to create oscillations in the spring

we look for the mass of each weight

         W = mg

          m = W / g

and we write them in a new column, we make a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation and it should give a straight line; the slope of this line is sought, which is the spring constant.

The fact of obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.
