An elevator of massmis initially at rest onthe first floor of a building. It moves upward,and passes the second and third floors

witha constant velocity, and finally stops at thefourth floor.The distance between adjacentfloors is h.What is the net work done on the elevatorduring the entire trip, from the first floor tothe fourth floor?
1. None of these.
2. W=-3m g h
3. W=-4m g h
4. W= 3m g h
5. W= 0correct
6. W= 4m g h

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Work. Work is understood as the force applied to travel a determined distance, in this case the height. The force in turn can be expressed by Newton's second law as the ratio between mass and gravity, as well

W = mgh

Where,

m = mass

h = height

g = Gravitational constant

When it ascends to the second floor it has traveled the energy necessary to climb a height, under this logic, until the 4 floor has traveled 3 times the height h of each of the floors therefore

h = 3h

Replacing in our equation we have to

W = mgh\\W = mg(3h)\\W = 3mgh

The correct answer is 4.

Starting from rest, a 2.1x10-4 kg flea springs straight upward. While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exerts
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

1.327363 m/s

0.00090243 m

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

m = Mass of flea

Energy

E=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow 3.7\times 10^{-4}=2.1\times 10^{-4}(v^2-0)\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{3.7\times 10^{-4}}{2.1\times 10^{-4}}}\\\Rightarrow v=1.32736\ m/s

The velocity of the flea when leaving the ground is 1.327363 m/s

W=F\times s\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{W}{F}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{3.7\times 10^{-4}}{0.41}\\\Rightarrow s=0.00090243\ m

The flea will travel 0.00090243 m upward

If the box weighs 40 newtons and is lifted a distance of 2 meters, how much work is done on the box?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The work done on the box is 80 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of box = 40 N

Distance = 2 meter

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

W=F\times x

W=mg\times x

Where, x = distance

mg = weight

Put the value into the formula

W=40\times2

W= 80\ Nm

W=80\ J

Hence, The work done on the box is 80 J.
