The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

er normally flows at a speed of 1 meter per second. What must its speed be in order to transport the particles that are twice as massive as usual?

Answer:

1.122 m/s

Explanation:

So usually a river with a speed of 1 meters per second can transport particle that weighs:

1^6 = 1 kg

If the particle is twice as massive as usual, then its weights would be 1 * 2 = 2kg

This means the river must be flowing at a speed of

2^{\frac{1}{6}} = 1.122 m/s

How do we find work from a force-displacement graph when the force exerted<br> is not constant?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Read forces directly from the graph.

Read displacements directly from the graph.

Use the area under the graph to find the work done by the force. This is equal to the kinetic or potential energy the object gains due to the application of the force.

A 400.0 kg storage box is held 10 m above ground by a forklift. What is its gravitational potential energy? (PE = mgh)
castortr0y [4]

Answer: D.) 39,200 J

Via the equation of potential energy PE = mgh where m is mass, g is the average gravity on earth and h is the height.  In this case m = 400 kg, g = 9.8, h = 10 m thus:

P.E.=(400kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2} )(10m)=39,200 J

P.E.= 39,200 Joules
