Since the energy is conserved, it's not lost, it's conserved. so the 750J of chem should go into cutting the grass, making a noise whilst doing so, and getting warm whilst doing so. How much into which is presumably decided by the (efficient ?) design of the machine.

Energy is neither created nor destroyed

E in = E out
750 J in so 750 J out

In a candy factory, the nutty chocolate bars contain 20.0 % pecans by mass. If 4.0 kg of pecans were used for candy last Tuesday
ladessa [460]

Answer:

44.09 pounds

Explanation:

We got that 20 % of the mass of a nutty chocolate bar its pecans, if 4.0 kg of pecans were used, we need to find the X in the equation

0.2 * X = 4.0 \ kg

where X its the total mass of nutty chocolate bars produced. So, we can just divide by 0.2 on both sides, and we find:

X = 4.0 kg / 0.2

X = 20.0 \ kg

Of course, we need the total mass produced in pounds, and not in kilograms.  Looking at an conversion table, we can find that 1 kg its 2.20462 pounds, multiplying the value for total mass produced by the conversion factor we get:

X = 20.0 \ kg * 2.20462 \ \frac{pounds}{kg}

X = 44.0924 \ pounds

Now, we just need to round off to two significant figures. This is:

X = 44.09 \ pounds,

the total mass of nutty chocolate bars  made last Tuesday to two significant figures.

An 800 N man climbs 5 m up a ladder. How much gravitational potential energy does he gain?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

4000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the man  = 800N

Height of ladder  = 5m

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy gained  = ?

Solution:

The gravitational potential energy is due to the position of a body.

 Gravitational potential energy = weight x height

Now insert the parameters;

 Gravitational potential energy  = 800 x 5  = 4000J

A mass resting on a horizontal, frictionless surface is attached to one end of a spring; the other end is fixed to a wall. It ta
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

(a) 185 N/m

(b) 3.083 kg

Explanation:

(a)

Using,

E = 1/2ke²....................... Equation 1

Where E = work done to compress the spring, k = spring constant of the spring, e = compression of the spring.

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2E/e²............... Equation 2

Given: E = 3.7 J, e = 0.20 m

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(3.7)/0.2²

k = 185 N/m.

(b)

Using,

F = ma.............. Equation 2

Where F = force applied to the spring, m = mass attached to the spring, a = acceleration of the spring.

But from hook's law,

F = ke................. Equation 3

substitute equation 3 into equation 2

ke = ma

make m the subject of the equation

m = ke/a................ Equation 4

Given: k = 185 N/m, e = 0.2 m, a = 12 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

m = 185(0.2)/12

m = 3.083 kg
